Use Cases

This endpoint is useful for:
  • Signature status tracking - Monitor envelope and per-recipient signing progress
  • Custom signing UIs - Build interfaces that display recipients, provider, and envelope links
  • Pre-initiation inspection - Inspect the signature step and recipients before initiating or modifying signing
  • Provider awareness - Adapt behavior based on the signature provider in use
