Integrating DocuSign with Kademi

The next steps are to link your DocuSign account with Kademi. If this is your first time using the DocuSign app you will need to sign up for a DocuSign developer account before you can proceed.

After you've installed the application, navigate to 'Talk & Connect' then to 'DocuSign'.

You will see this screen. Click on 'Link with DocuSign' to start the setup wizard.

Again, make sure that you have a DocuSign account ready to go before proceeding and clicking on 'Get Started'.

DocuSign Account Details

From here, you'll be entering details found only in your DocuSign account. First, you'll want to head over to the 'Settings' page for your account.

Then, on the left side panel, scroll down until you see the 'Integrations' section. Click on 'Apps and Keys'.

From here, you will find all the details that you will need to link your DocuSign account to Kademi. First is the 'User ID' field.

From DocuSign, copy the User ID field found under 'My Account Information' and paste it into the correct field in Kademi.

Next, is the Integration Key.

Click on 'Add App and Integration Key'. Give it a meaningful name and then click on 'Create App'.

After that, the integration key should be found under 'General Info'. Copy and paste it into the relevant field.

Finally are the RSA Keypairs.

Click on the 'Generate RSA' button. After some time, it will present you with your Public and Private Keys. Copy and paste each of these one at a time to the relevant fields.

The last field we'll need to grab from DocuSign is the HMAC key.

From here, you'll want to click on CONNECT KEYS. To generate your key, click on ADD SECRET KEY.

Once you have generated your key, make sure that you copy and store it somewhere safe immediately as the full key will only be fully shown and copyable the first time it is generated

Once you have done that, paste your HMAC key into the field in Kademi and then proceed to the next step.

Setting up a Journey to use DocuSign 

Now that you've linked your Kademi account with DocuSign, we are now going to setup a journey to test its functionality. If you need a refresher on how journeys work, then take a minute to look over these tutorials as well as this tutorial on onboarding journeys.

For this section, we'll be using templates from DocuSign. You can use this tutorial from DocuSign to create your templates

 

We'll be creating an onboarding journey that will capture any user registrations as well as any accepted invitations to the program. It will then send off a document for the user to sign. 

First, we'll set up the beginning of the onboarding journey as detailed in the tutorials.  

undefined

Next, in the 'Nodes List' to the right, look up the DocuSign nodes. You'll want the 'Send a DocuSign Envelope' and 'DocuSign eSignature Event' nodes.

undefined

Next, connect the nodes like so. Click the  for the 'Send a DocuSign Envelope'  to access its settings.

First, under the 'Template' setting, select the template from DocuSign that you wish to use. 

undefined

After you have selected your template, the recipient settings will populate depending on how you configured the recipients on DocuSign. In the example below, there are two recipients that need to sign.

undefined

First, is the owner of the document. In the journey, fill out their email address in the field under the Owner role. 

The second is the main recipient/lead profile for the journey (the person who has registered or been invited to the program). We will be using a KCode to grab the lead profile's email address. You can simply copy and paste the KCode below without any spaces.

* |currentLead/leadCustomerProfile/email| *

Your settings should then look something like this. 


 

Make sure that all recipient's email addresses are filled out and hava a valid matching profile within your Kademi accountNote that super user profiles will be invalid. 

For the 'DocuSign eSignature Event', it isn't strictly necessary to configure any settings for it. You can however, create processes for when the user signs or declines signing the document. To keep things simple, we won't cover that here.

undefined

To test out the journey, we can have a test user go through the registration process or send an invitation email to them. 

Make sure that the website that you're using has 'Force HTTPS' enabled.

Once you have done that, the user should recieve an email from DocuSign.undefined

 

By clicking 'Review Document', they will be taken to DocuSign website, where they will be able to sign the document.
