Is it possible, as the sender, to have restricted visibility of a document out for completion/signature and only see the final document once signed?

I have a scenario where we need to send a form to a School to be completed but before we can see the content of that form, it requires parental consent. The School would need to complete the form and then send to the parent for signature before we should be able to see it. The issue is that we have full visibility of the form as it moves through the workflow. Is there any way to restrict visibility of a document until it has been signed?

    Hi Hannah.Smith,

     

    Thank you for reaching out.

     

    If you wish that the part of the document should be visible only to the recipient who will be filling it, you can try the restricted visibility feature. For more information about this feature, please refer to the following help document: https://helpx.adobe.com/sign/config/global/limited-document-visibility.html. 

     

    Let us know if you have any questions.

     

    Thanks,

      Thanks for the quick reply. Does it have to be a global setting or can you set this for a specific group?

      Hi Hannah.Smith,

       

      Sorry for the delay in response.

       

      You can enable Limited document visibility rules at the account and group levels. Please check the information under the title “How document visibility works” in the same document shared above.

       

      Let us know if you have any further questions or need help.

       

      Thanks,

      Meenakshi
