Welcome to the DocuSign-eSignature-SDK wiki!

This is intended to be a supplement to the documentation you can get from DocuSign eSignature Developer Center

We have put together some walkthroughs that will get you going with eSignature development. You probably want to start with the basics like sending your first electronic signature envelope: Code Walkthrough _ Create And Send Envelope

Next we'd advise you to read the articles on requesting the status of the document: Code Walkthrough: The RequestStatus methods and then getting the electronically and digitally (yes!) signed document out of our system Code Walkthrough: Retrieving Documents from DocuSign

Once you master that you will probably want to send more complicated and dynamically generated documents and use various tabs on them. Read about the tab concepts here: Concepts: Tabs and then Code Walkthrough: Anchor Tabs.

After you've mastered tabs, you may want to know how to let your signers contribute to the envelope. Read about signer attachments here: Code Walkthrough: Signer Attachments.

Do you want your recipients to stay on your site while signing? You may want to look at the embedded signing experience: Code Walkthrough: Embedded Signing.

A common requirement for debugging is to look at SOAP traces.

Here is a quick way to get going with DocuSign API using NetBeans: Accessing DocuSign API from Java using NetBeans

Let us know if you want to see any other walkthroughs or best practices! We are here to help!!!
