Document → Add Signatory
AI-generatedOverview
This node operation adds a new signatory to an existing document in the Autentique digital signature platform. It is useful for workflows that require dynamically adding signers to documents for signing, approval, or witnessing. For example, a contract management process can use this node to add stakeholders as signatories via email or phone, specifying their signing action and delivery method.
Use Case Examples
- Adding a signatory by email to a contract document for signing.
- Adding a signatory by phone with WhatsApp delivery for approval.
- Adding a signatory by name only, generating a signing link without contact details.

- If using phone contact method, ensure the phone number is in the correct international format.
- Check that the action value is one of the allowed options (SIGN, APPROVE, SIGN_AS_A_WITNESS, RECOGNIZE).
