POST /signature_request/bulk_create_embedded_with_template
Creates BulkSendJob which sends SignatureRequests in bulk based off of a Template to be signed in an embedded window.
Description

Request Parameters
test_mode optional
Whether this is a test, the signature request will not be legally binding if set to 1. Defaults to 0.
allow_decline optional
Allows signers to decline to sign a document if set to 1. Defaults to 0.
client_id
The client ID of the ApiApp you want to associate with this request.
template_id or template_ids[%i%]
Use template_id to create a SignatureRequest from a single Template. Use template_ids[%i%] to create a SignatureRequest from multiple templates, where %i% is an integer indicating the order in which the template will be used. Only template_id or template_ids[%i%] can be used, not both.
title optional
The title you want to assign to the SignatureRequest.
subject optional
The subject in the email that will be sent to the signers.
message optional
The custom message in the email that will be sent to the signers.
signing_redirect_url optional
The URL you want the signer redirected to after they successfully sign.
signer_file or signer_list
signer_file is a CSV file defining values and options for signer fields. Required unless a signer_list is used, you may not use both. The CSV can have the following columns:
  • name: the name of the signer filling the role of RoleName
  • email_address: email address of the signer filling the role of RoleName
  • pin: the 4- to 12-character access code that will secure this signer's signature page (optional)
  • *_field: any column with a "_field" suffix will be treated as a custom field (optional)
    You may only specify field values here, any other options should be set in the custom_fields request parameter.

Example CSV:
name, email_address, pin, company_field
George, george@example.com, d79a3td, ABC Corp
Mary, mary@example.com, gd9as5b, 123 LLC

signer_list is a JSON array defining values and options for signer fields. Required unless a signer_file is used, you may not use both. Each element in the array can have the following two items:
  • signers: an array of signers using the RoleName as keys (currently only one signer is supported per SignatureRequest)
    • name: the name of the signer filling the role of RoleName
    • email_address: email address of the signer filling the role of RoleName
    • pin: the 4- to 12-character access code that will secure this signer's signature page (optional)
  • custom_fields: an array of custom field values using the field name or API id as keys (optional)
    You may only specify field values here, any other options should be set in the custom_fields request parameter.

Example JSON: 
[
  {
    "signers": {
      "Client": {
        "name": "George",
        "email_address": "george@example.com",
        "pin": "d79a3td"
      }
    },
    "custom_fields": {
      "company": "ABC Corp"
    }
  },
  {
    "signers": {
      "Client": {
        "name": "Mary",
        "email_address": "mary@example.com",
        "pin": "gd9as5b"
      }
    },
    "custom_fields": {
      "company": "123 LLC"
    }
  }
]
custom_fields optional
A JSON array defining values and options for custom fields. You may also specify custom field values in the signer_list or signer_file, but all other options should be set here.
  • name: the name, or "Field Label," of the custom field (the field's API ID can be used here as well)
  • value: the value of the custom field
  • editor: the RoleName allowed to edit the custom field (optional, but required if 'required' is defined)
    Note: Editable custom_fields are only supported for single signer requests or the first signer of ordered signature requests. If more than one signer is assigned to the unordered signature request, any editor value is ignored and the field will not be editable.
  • required: a boolean describing if this field is required (default: false)
ccs[%RoleName%][email_address] optional
The email address of the CC filling the role of RoleName. Required when a CC role exists for the Template.
metadata[%key%] optional
Key-value data that should be attached to the signature request. This metadata is included in all API responses and events involving the signature request. For example, use the metadata field to store a signer's order number for look up when receiving events for the signature request.

Each request can include up to 10 metadata keys, with key names up to 40 characters long and values up to 1000 characters long.
Response
Returns a BulkSendJob object
