# Send Contracts For Electronic Signature And Track Them With Docusign

**[API Evangelist](https://daily.dev/sources/apievangelist)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Docusign's API lets software send and track agreements without anyone opening the Docusign website. The Contract Management capability creates and searches 'envelopes' (packages of documents) using calls like POST /accounts/{accountId}/envelopes. Webhook & Event Subscription Management, called Connect, pushes status updates such as envelope completion to your server. Identity & Access Management covers users, groups and permission profiles, and Tenant Provisioning covers creating and billing accounts. APIs.io catalogs 18 workflows, including bulk send from template and downloading completed documents. Docusign is a paid, self-serve, hosted service.

## Questions this post answers

### How do I get notified automatically when a Docusign envelope is completed instead of polling for status?

Set up a Docusign Connect webhook configuration using POST /v2/accounts/{accountId}/connect, which pushes real-time status updates, such as envelope completion, to your server. You can list existing configurations with GET /v2/accounts/{accountId}/connect, or update where updates are sent with PUT /v2/accounts/{accountId}/connect.

_Anyone wiring contract completion into their own systems can find integration patterns like this on daily.dev._

### How do I create a Docusign envelope from a template using the API?

Use POST /accounts/{accountId}/envelopes to create an envelope from a template or your own documents, filling in the template roles and recipients. You can later search envelopes by date, status or text with GET /accounts/{accountId}/envelopes, or view a specific envelope's sender, recipients and documents with GET /accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}.

_Developers automating contract sending can track API patterns like this one on daily.dev._

### How do I remove a former employee's access to Docusign accounts in my organization?

Call DELETE /v2/organizations/{organizationId}/users/{userId}/accounts to remove a person's access to specific accounts, part of Docusign's Identity & Access Management capability for managing users, groups and permission profiles across an organization.

_Teams managing offboarding and access control follow API details like this on daily.dev._
