DocuSignInstall

Summary

Starts a DocuSign chunked upload session for a large document by declaring its MIME type and total size in bytes. The session is then used with the Upload Chunk and Commit operations of the same resource.

Inputs

• authentication — Authentication method: JWT (Service Integration, the default) or OAuth2 (User Authorization).
• contentType (required) — MIME type of the document to be uploaded. Defaults to application/pdf.
• totalSize (required) — Total size of the document in bytes. Defaults to 0, so set it to the real file size.

Output shape

A single JSON item containing the DocuSign API response for the new chunked upload session. This is expected to include the chunked upload ID, which later Upload Chunk and Commit steps need.

The source pack shows only a stub for the handler (handleChunkedUploadInitiate), not its body. The exact endpoint and response fields are therefore not verified here. Requests use the node's shared retry logic, with backoff on rate limits and 5xx errors.

Examples

Example 1: Upload a 50 MB PDF contract that is too large for a single request.

Resource: Chunked Upload, Operation: Initiate, Content Type: application/pdf, Total Size: 52428800. Pass the returned upload ID to Upload Chunk, then Commit.
