ClickSign

Integração com a API do ClickSign para assinatura eletrônica

Actions3

Overview

This node integrates with the ClickSign API to manage electronic signature workflows. Specifically, for the Envelope resource with the Create operation, it allows users to create a new envelope that can contain multiple documents for signing. This is useful in scenarios where you need to send a batch of documents together for electronic signatures, such as contracts, agreements, or forms that require multiple signatories.

Practical example: A legal team wants to send a set of contract documents bundled into one envelope to several clients for signature. Using this node, they can programmatically create an envelope named accordingly, which will then be used to add documents and signers before sending out for signature.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the ClickSign API for electronic signature management.
  • Needs an API authentication token or API key credential configured in n8n to authorize requests to ClickSign.
  • The node expects proper configuration of credentials within n8n to interact with the ClickSign service.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Missing or invalid API credentials may cause authentication failures.
    • Providing an empty or missing envelope name will likely result in an error since the property is required.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent communication with the ClickSign API.
  • Error messages:

    • "Operação não suportada: <operation>" — This means the requested operation is not supported by the node for the selected resource. Ensure you select a valid operation.
    • Errors related to missing parameters will typically indicate which required field is absent.
  • Resolution tips:

    • Verify that the API key or authentication token is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
    • Ensure all required fields, especially "Envelope Name," are filled.
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint accessibility.
