Community Beginner ,
Mar 24, 2021 Mar 24, 2021

I'm using adobe sign api's to send document for signatures, in current behaviour signature fields are being added to end of document. Can we customize the location and appearance of signature fields? and have found some relevent information from this link: https://helpx.adobe.com/sign/kb/place-form-fields-in-a-document-using-rest-api-adobe-sign.html  but is seems like outdated implementation and not working currently. Any help? Thanks In Advance.

I have found two solution, there is two ways we can control form fileds:

1. Using text tag that we should put in our document and adobe automatically convert it to signature filed

       Here is the link: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/sign/using/text-tag.html#AdvancedDocumentProcessingwithTextTags 

2. Other way is using v6 api endpoint, the link mentioned in question is not for V6 api. Here is the link throught which we can update form filed: https://secure.na1.adobesign.com/public/docs/restapi/v6#!/agreements/updateFormFields

Out of aobove two approach, I found the first one best. It also provide lot of other flexibility.

Hi,

I am having issue with form fields. Have you placed signature or date fields that behaves same as text tags using the V6 form fields API? The V6 values for parameters like DATE etc seems to be not working as expected. I want to place a date field using the form fields API in my document but it should be prefilled to the signature date in MM/DD/YYY format. If I place text tags it works fine. Is there a programatic alternative using form fields API for version6 ?

 

Thanks

I have used text tag only to control form fields, and it worked.So I haven't tried using form field API calls.But yeah during testing I also found some issues in Form Field API calls.
