I do not have any previous knowledge of calling APIs, so I am using API explorer to download PDFs of existing templates on my DocuSign developer account. However, I need to download about 500 of my templates so that I could change them, but I do not know how to exactly call and generate the PDF without the API Explorer. Would anyone be kind enough to explain to me the process of how to use API without the Explorer? I am trying to use TemplateDocuments:get
API Explorer Link
You can download Postman and then use DocuSign Postman Collection to call the APIs or you can use DocuSign Code Launchers to be able to create scripts in any language you prefer that does that for you

Use Case -
We are an origanization who helps universities manage the sport activities and contract of their students. We are planning to integrate docusign in our system both web and mobile app. One feature that we need is the information regarding the created templates, is there a way to get notified about templates via webhooks(like when it was last used, or created).
So, webhooks may not be suitable to know when a new template is created, because currently the webhook is tied to an existing object, and the object is not yet there, so it's a catch22.
What you can use instead is the DocuSign Monitor API. It's a different approach, but using this API, you can get data about anything that happens in the DocuSign account, including templates.
You can make raw API calls, or use the Monitor SDKs for one of six languages.
I'm not 100% on this but one approach would be to use folders. Put your templates in a named folder and use the listStatusChanges API with a folder id as a query parameter (https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/how-to/list-envelope-status-changes/)
You can also select "Folders" in the "Include Data:" section of your DocuSign Connect webhook and filter for the folder(s) you're looking for.
I'm using the DocuSign eSignature API, and am generating client code with the help of the openapi codegen (via these https://github.com/docusign/OpenAPI-Specifications).
Now I have to use the DocuSign Manage API (https://developers.docusign.com/docs/admin-api/), too, but I can't find any Swagger / OpenAPI definition for that?
Is it somewhere hidden, does it not exists, and are there plans to make it available at one point? Are there any other options, SDKs, anything or do I have to make these calls "manually"?
Unfortunately, the Swagger file for the Admin API is not yet available.
That's also why DocuSign doesn't yet have SDKs for the API yet.
I don't have access to any scheduling information on it.
I suggest that you handle any Admin API calls you need to do manually for now.
What language are you creating SDKs for with CodeGen? (Please answer in a comment or by editing your original question.)
Helpers, I want to use Connect services with my DocuSign rest APIs integrated website. Could anyone help me out, Where can I get these in the GitHub? Basically the need is:
Once the document is fully executed, it will be routed via DocuSign connect to a folder which aligns with the name of the employee. This will require work on both the elected system as well as the DocuSign API to configure.
No problemo! These days, I suggest using an intermediate PaaS to queue and deliver the webhook notifications to your application which can live safely behind your firewall.
Here's a blog post on the technique. Note that we have PHP example software for this technique.
Once your PHP app is notified that an envelope is complete (fully signed), just download the documents from DocuSign and store them in your file system. Easy Peasy!
I have a standard DocuSign account and I want to add an integration key but I am not able to add that key as there is no option to in my standard account to add the key. Further, I want to hit DocuSign API either through nodejs-sdk or postman to create and send an envelope with the use of the template. So, for this what should I do? Can anybody help, please?
Sounds like you're just getting started with the DocuSign eSignature API. Welcome! We have a variety of resources that you will find helpful.
I would start here on the DocuSign Developer Center.
To begin experimenting with our API, you'll first need to create a demo sandbox account. Within this account, you can provision your own integrator keys. Later down the road, you will follow our "Go-Live" process to transition your integration to our paid, production environment.
Once you have your account created, I would suggest you check out this quickstart code example.
That should get you started!
You should create a new developer/sandbox account to create an integration key. You cannot do that in production.
For node.JS we have a few different resources you can use, the most complete one is our code example "launcher" that can be used as a full app to try the code. We also have a quickstart that you an use without configuring the API authentication part.
I just noticed that new Instagram API's sandbox has too many restrictions and I would need to submit review to build my app. I googled to see if there's a way around but looks like using their API would be better than anything.
The app I was going to build requires all the API endpoints that Instagram doesn't allow Sandbox users to access (such as hashtag search and get recent tags). Do I just build one assuming I can get responses from the endpoints? I am pretty confused. Anything would help. Thanks!
You think you have two options:
Since, instagram allows you get the contents from the user's in the sandbox mode.
Create an App using link and submit for review to get experience with public data available in instagram.
