I think we should look into using the Docusign API to integrate real signature functionality and authentication into a Formatta form.
DocuSign Service API Overview
The DocuSign
® API provides methods that allow partner companies’ servers to integrate the DocuSign service into their applications. The service allows partners to build solutions that:
- Submit partially specified envelopes for later completion by the customer.
- Submit completely specified envelopes that are immediately processed for delivery.
- Void an envelope that has been submitted but not yet completed.
- Retrieve the status of an envelope.
- Retrieve the completed PDF of every document in an envelope.
- Retrieve the completed PDF for each separate document in an envelope.
- Retrieve the consumer disclosure acceptance status of a recipient.
- Transfer an envelope to another DocuSign user or account.
- Correct recipient information for an existing envelope en route.
- Resend a notification email to an existing recipient.
- Retrieve the Member level permissions for the optional features.
- Purge the envelope contents from the DocuSign system.
- Withdraw an Authoritative Copy of the envelope.
- Retrieve a list of audit events pertaining to a particular envelope.
- Work with address books.
- Upload and download templates.
These methods can be used by themselves or in addition to linking the customer’s experience to the DocuSign site to complete any partially completed processes.
