Autotask and DocuSign - docusignapi

Has anyone out there created an API to kick off docusign from within the equote module in Autotask?
I can't locate any references of autotask customers using docusign, nor docusign 'autotask' customers.

From the DocuSign perspective, DocuSign can be integrated with any system that allows integration. DocuSign offers both a REST API and a SOAP API, both of which enable you to add DocuSign eSignature transaction management functionality within the app being integrated. The DocuSign Developer Center contains a wealth of information about the DocuSign APIs (http://www.docusign.com/developer-center).
Since Autotask has an API that promotes "creating seemless integrations with leading...cloud- and managed-services tools" (http://www.autotask.com/main-pages/solutions/integrated-modules-features/open-api), I see no obvious reason that DocuSign couldn't be integrated with Autotask. i.e., provided that Autotask allows you to implement integration code that makes either REST API or SOAP API calls to another system, and use the API responses that you receive to subsequently implement the desired action(s) in Autotask (via their API), then integrating DocuSign with Autotask is certainly feasible.

Power Apps/D365 and DocuSign Integration - Send Envelope on behalf of others

This is my first time posting so apologies if I don't explain things clearly.
I've created a Custom Connector within Power Apps that does an API call to my DocuSign Account. The API call I am currently leveraging is to create DocuSign Envelopes:
/restapi/v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes
Link to DocuSign API Library: https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/envelopes/create/?explorer=true
My issue is that I do not know how create Envelopes on behalf of other DocuSign Users while using the API call within my Connector. Since the Custom Connector required me to log into my DocuSign Account, every time I use the Connector the Envelope generated from the API call gets associated to me (I am able to see it within "Drafts" when I log into my DocuSign).
Sorry if this is a bit confusing. My end goal is to use my Custom Connector and its API calls within a Canvas App. However, I want the Envelopes created not to always be associated to my DocuSign account especially if the Canvas App is used by other End Users.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

Since you want to create envelopes on behalf of other DocuSign Users while still using the API call within your connector, you can use the Send On Behalf Of Functionality (SOBO). This functionality allows a single user in an account to authenticate for other members of the account and send fully defined envelopes on their behalf.
Here's a detailed guide on the SOBO functionality: https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-soap-api/esign101/auth/send-on-behalf-of/

Automating the process of creating and configuring a new DocuSign developer account via API

Right now I'm exploring potential options for automating the process of creating and configuring new DocuSign developer accounts via API calls, as this would allow my team to greatly reduce the work needed to setup and configure these accounts manually. I can't find any information in the current DocuSign API documentation that would allow for this, and the only question I could find online was Is it possible to create a DocuSign developer account via REST calls? from 2019.
Is it possible to create new developer accounts via an API? The POST requests utilized by the UI don't look to be designed in a way that would easily allow for this.
There's an endpoint in the eSignature API called Accounts:Create that enables creating new accounts.
However, it's important to note this:
This method is restricted to partner integrations. You must work with DocuSign Professional Services or DocuSign Business Development, who will provide you with the Distributor Code and Distributor Password that you need to include in the request body.

Use Docusign UI with Basic API plan

Is the option to embed the Docusign UI is available under the Basic API plan as detailed in the below link?
https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/how-to/embed-ui/
We don't need embedded signing but want to use the UI to prep and send the docs for e-signature.
Yes, it is. Basic API plan gives you many of the eSignature features and embedded UI is possible if you can make API calls.

Is DocuSign Payment possible through DocuSign SOAP API?

We're currently have our application integrated to DocuSign through the DocuSign SOAP API. We want to use DocuSign Payment with Stripe. Trying to determine if the DocuSign SOAP API will work in creating the payment tab or will we need to switch to using DocuSign REST API.
The effort of rewriting our integration to use DocuSign REST API is a bigger task so looking to see if the SOAP API will work with DocuSign Payment since I couldn't find any example.
For many use cases, a template can hold the fields (tags) needed for payments. So you could create a template that includes payments using the DocuSign web tool, then create an envelope via SOAP that uses the template.
If you want to include the specific payment tag via SOAP, that might be problematic since the tag is not in the WSDL. There is no plan to update the WSDL.
If you can create the SOAP message manually, you could try to add the payment tag. See workflow example 14. Here is the Java version.

Can following be achieved using Docusign APIs?

I'm trying to achieve some requirements via Docusign APIs. Would like to know if it's possible before I start the project.
I've used Docusign app for Salesforce earlier, but now I'm trying to achieve some functionalities through API calls
Ability for a Signed Document sent to a contact (by clicking on a button on contact record) to be attached to the Contact record it was sent from
Ability to write back to the record from a field tagged on the DocuSign envelope
Vinay, this functionality is available using the DocuSign for Salesforce integration. If you would like to write it yourself using APIs, you can start by looking at our Apex toolkit here - https://developers.docusign.com/salesforce/guides/apex-toolkit
