What is a Custom Experience?

You can customise the look and feel of your signing experience with the Custom Experience feature.

To personalise the signature process and adapt it to your brand identity, it is possible to:

  • Customise the signature experience appearance (logo, colours, start screen, left panel).
  • Personalise the user's journey with the redirect redirect URLs in case of signature success, error or decline.
  • Manage email notifications triggered when an event occurs on the Signature Request (ie. "Request is -approved", "Request is rejected").
  • Manage emails settings (ie. show the due date, the introduction, your logo or the sender)

The set-up of custom experiences can be done from the application and the API

📘

This feature is available for plans :

  • PRO up to 2 custom experiences
  • SCALE up to 20,000 custom experiences

Overview


Set up a Custom Experience in the application

A Custom Experience can be created on the Application and requires Admin or Owner access.

Once the Custom Experience is created, you can retrieve its 'id' using the dedicated menu item as shown below.

Sandbox and Custom Experience

If you are testing the API, you only have access to the Sandbox environment. You are limited in the Custom experience creation: you can create a Custom Experience only from the application, and not from the API.

Associate the Custom Experience to a Signature Request

Once the Custom Experience is created and the 'id' retrieved, you can use the Custom Experience to personalise a Signature Request.

To do so, you must set the custom_experience_id parameter with the customExperienceId when you initiate the Signature Request.

POST /signature_requests 

{
    "name": "The name of your Signature Request",
    "delivery_mode": "email",
    "timezone": "Europe/Paris",
    "custom_experience_id": "{{customExperienceId}}"
}
