This is a beta release. Comments are welcomed.

This repo contains a Python Flask application that demonstrates several of the DocuSign Signature REST API recipes:

• Embedded signing. See app/py_001_embedded_signing
• Sending a signature request via email. See app/py_004_email_send
• Sending a signature request using a template. See app/py_002_email_send_template
• Get envelopes’ statuses. See app/py_005_envelope_list_status
• Get an envelope’s status. See app/py_006_envelope_status
• Get an envelope’s recipient statuses. See app/py_007_envelope_recipient_status
• Using a webhook to receive status changes. See app/lib_master_python/ds_webhook.py
• Authenticating with the Signature REST API. See app/lib_master_python/ds_authentication.py
• Embedded tagging and sending of an envelope. See app/py_012_embedded_tagging

API Logging Feature

The application also enables you to easily view your account’s API logs. It shows all API requests to your demo account, from this application, and from others including the DocuSign web tool.

Try it on Heroku

Use the deploy button to immediately try this app on Heroku. You can use Heroku’s free service tier, no credit card is needed.

Integration Key and Secret

Do not use the DS_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID or DS_OAUTH_SECRET config variables.

Instead, enter your Integration Key (Client ID) and Secret after you have started the software on Heroku.

Details: the config variables should only be used if the new server's name is already known and has been registered as a redirect URI with the DocuSign authentication service.

Build delays

Note: during the Heroku build process, the setup.py step for lxml takes several minutes since it includes a compilation.
