Request must be made to correct API access point

New Here ,
Nov 20, 2020 Nov 20, 2020

I'm trying to use the sign function for the first time in acrobat and this error keeps popping up as I go to a request signature. It says "request must be made to correct API access point (e.g. use GET /baseUris)" how do I get it to work?

I just spent some time with Adobe chat support. They first had me try going to the document cloud and sending that way. That worked. https://documentcloud.adobe.com/

 

Next, they just had me log out of my desktop application then log back in and try again. That also worked.

  1. I was having this same issue and I found out that I was not signed in to Adobe.  Once I signed in it went so smoothly.  All I could say was OMG!  Good luck everyone.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Yes I have this problem too. After placing a signature on a document and clicking next, I receive this error message.

Yes, I am also having that same issue.  I push "Request Signatures," enter the email address, and an error message pops up saying, "An error has occurred. Please try again. Request must be made to correct API access point (e.g. use GET /baseUris)."  What does this mean?  Has anyone figured out the solution to this?

Fair enough, but I was hoping for quick & helpful information from people smarter than me, who have the ability to dumb it down so that regular people (like me) can solve their own problems without spending an hour with tech support... 

 

I know, I know, "hope in one hand..."

Are there any suggestions for when sign out / sign in does not work?
