What is a Signer Email Field?

A Signer Email Field automatically displays the Signer's email address on the signed document. It is read-only for Signers and filled in automatically based on their profile information.

The Field value is populated from the Signer's email property. If the Signer's email is updated before signing, the Field updates accordingly. The final value is locked when the Signer signs the document.

You can configure the font appearance to match your document styling.

Signer Email Field creation with Smart Anchors

Smart Anchors allow you to insert a Signer Email Field within your document using this pattern:

• Pattern: {{signer_index|signer_email|name}}
• Examples: {{s1|signer_email|}}, {{s1|signer_email|Email1}}, {{s2|signer_email|ContactEmail}}

The Signers index (s1, s2, s3, etc) is determined by the Signers order in the Signature Request. If the index references a non-existent Signer, the Field won't be created.

Signer Email Field creation with API endpoints

To create a Signer Email Field using the API endpoints:

• Add a Signer Email Field to an existing Signer using this endpoint: /POST /signature_requests/{signatureRequestId}/documents/{documentId}/fields

Customisation

A Signer Email Field can be customised to fit your needs:

• Appearance: configure the font family, color, size, and style variants (same options as Text Fields).
