Docusign Connect Configuration settings not returning PDF - docusignapi

I have a standard custom connect setup that has been working really well for us. We now want to store the signed document in our app. So I go and edit the settings and click on Document PDFs in the include section. However, there is no change in the XML that is in the callback. I would have assumed that the base64 encoded document would be there just like when I send it.
Is it somewhere else? Ho do I get a copy of the document once ALL recipients have signed?
Thank You.

Sorry you're having this problem. I suggest creating a new Connect subscription/config and sending it to https://www.webhookapp.com/ as a test.
If the payload is as you expect, then update the url to be your webhook listener.
It could also be that you're not parsing the xml fully. The documents are included at an initial object level within the xml.
I do know that if you request the Certificate of Completion without asking for the Document PDFs themselves, it won't work. I haven't seen your problem as described though.

Add document to envelope based on tempalte

I'm not very familiar with DocuSign or its API and after playing around in Postman I'm still not sure if I'm able to:
Create an Envelope based on a Template
Attach a pdf doc to said Envelope
Send for signing.
In case I got it all wrong, I'm trying to do the following:
Get the pdf doc from a third party and send it for signing via DocuSign. The document will be the same format every time(same signature placement, names, etc) except for data in it and it will be sent to the same people for signatures.
Is it possible to do so? Am I looking at right stuff?
Yes, this is completely possible. We in fact have existing Postman requests that do just that:
https://www.postman.com/docusign/workspace/docusign-s-public-workspace/request/14257714-ef2d10ba-b540-4644-93a1-b0344c0dd82c
Examples number 15 to 18 are the ones you want to look at.

how to get the signed document and response after signing in Docusign

So i am using docusign and testing the api with a simple index.php type project and i have successfully sent the document to the email provided in the
$signerEmail = 'test#test.com' using docusign api-client
now after it have signed the document and finish it by clicking at the finish button in docusign window. I want to retrieve the response and document on which it have given its information.
how can i achieve this and right now i am having difficulty to find it in the documentation.
There are 2 ways to do that, synchronously and asynchronously.
Or in other words, if you know the document is already complete, you can run the code, or you can use a webhook with notifications from DocuSign letting you know that the envelope is complete.
Regardless, the API to retrieve a document is this:
GET /v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/documents/{documentId}
or you can use it from the PHP SDK as well.
Hope this helps.
A full code example (in PHP as well) can be found here - https://developers.docusign.com/esign-rest-api/code-examples/code-example-download-envelope-documents

docusignapi Add document binary

I'm trying to add a document to envelope. However I have that document in a blob column in the Oracle database. I tried to load that in the blob variable, convert to clob (using blob2clob oracle function) and send the information. however, I always get the document empty on docusign. So, I was thinking a way to send the information in binary form.
Does somebode know the correct setup to sent taht or any help with this?
Thank you,
Jose

xPages xAgent Security

I'm currently implementing the OpenNTF Multiple File Uploader by Mark Leusink.
This very nice custom control uses an xAgent to embed the selected file attachment into the target Notes document. Everything was working fine until I added Authors and Readers fields to the Notes documents. Now I'm getting a security error (402) when uploading the file.
My thought is the Upload xAgent can't edit the target document to attach the file. If I remove the security fields, everything works again.
My question is, do xAgents run with the same security as the current user? If not, can I set a "run as" user for the xAgent like I can for a Lotus Script agent?
I'd suggest that you look at the xAgent's code and rewrite it to use sessionAsSigner to access the database/document to upload the file. This will cause it to run as the signer of the application and bypass the security issues that your running into.
Both Tom's and Declan's answers are correct, but this doesn't count for the file uploader.
It uses a Flash component to do the actual uploading (called SWFUpload). Since browser cookies aren't shared with Flash, it can't send along the user's session cookie with the file and therefore to the Domino server the user performing the upload is nog logged in (aka Anonymous). That's why the uploader requires anonymous users to be allowed to read/write public documents in the ACL and the XPage/ XAgent handling the uploaded files (aUpload.xsp) is set to allow "public access users". It uses the sessionAsSigner object to access the database's content
Normally, the above settings would allow everyone to anonymously upload files. That's why I implemented a custom authentication solution based on an idea by Mark Barton: before every file is uploaded, a request is made to an XPage to retrieve a unique key. That XPage (aGetAuth.xsp) does run under the user's credentials and stores the key in a document in the database. This key is send along with the uploaded file and compared with the stored key. The upload is only allowed if the keys match.
First thing I'd check in your case if the code in the aUpload.xsp XAgent can read and write the target document using the sessionAsSigner call.
Mark, Declan, and Tim, thanks for jumping in.
I modified the xAgent **aGetAuth.xsp** to use sessionAsSigner to get the current database. At first I got the error "sessionAsSigner not found".
Google showed a quick answer was to re-sign the template before testing. After re-signing the template, twice, and preforming a "clean" everything works brilliantly.

Programmatic Creation of a Notes Link Hotspot (URL)

Earlier versions of the Notes client would automatically turn a sent URL into a clickable link for the recipient (regardless of mail client) but with 6.5 (and presumably later) this no longer happens; that is, the URL is sent as plain text. The Notes UI allows it to be done via the Create->Hotspot->Link Hotspot menu but this gets tedious.
I'm looking for a way to create a Link Hotspot in LotusScript. My research to date leads me to believe that this isn't possible but there may be a hack of some kind.
The automatic conversion of urls into clickable links is a user preference.
In 6.5 it is set via File/Preferences/User Preferences/Basics. In 8 it is set via File/Prefences/Basic Notes Client Config.
I don't think you can create a url link hotspot explicitly using lotusscript. You can create a doc link, but there is no obvious way to turn it into a url link.
You could try an approach where the form is set to render passthrough html on the client and then construct the relevant html for a link.
Update in response to comment.
The scenario is that we want to to control what a user receiving mail sees. We have a few cases we should think about.
The recipient is using Notes and received the mail directly via notes to notes routing.
The recipient is out on the internet using any client and allows email in a rich format.
The recipient is out on the internet using any client and only allows email in plain text.
In the first case the user will see links if they turn on the option for that. You could also create pass-through html in the rich text and that will render on the Notes client assuming the form option is set in the design. If it's straight email and you don't really need any other rich Notes features you could also construct a MIME message.
In the next two cases you just want to send properly formatted MIME messages. In the first of those cases the user will accept rich formatting and therefore you can construct the message as simple html and include links that way. In the second case the user will not, and you have to make do with plain text. Luckily most mail clients will automatically turn urls received in plain text messages into links for you. This may be an option as in the Notes client.
It is best practice when sending rich mail content to also include a MIME section for plain text. That way you don't need to care what version the user prefers.
You need to cheat and create a MIME entry to get your links. Going that route you also can take the opportunity to make it look really nice. The sample code is on this site
