Envelope Document Field → Update

Summary

Updates custom name-value fields on a specific document within a DocuSign envelope. The handler body isn't visible in the provided source, so the exact API call and return shape aren't confirmed.

Inputs

  • Authentication — Auth method: JWT (Service Integration, default) or OAuth2 (User Authorization).
  • Envelope ID (required) — ID of the envelope that contains the document.
  • Document ID (required) — ID of the document within the envelope whose fields are being updated.
  • Document Fields — Repeatable list of Field entries, each with a Name and a Value, to set on the document.

Output shape

Presumably the DocuSign API response for the updated document fields (typically the document's custom fields), returned as n8n item JSON.

The source pack contains only handler signatures for this operation, with no bodies, so the returned fields are not confirmed. Errors are raised through the node's shared DocuSign API error handling. That handling retries on rate limits and 5xx errors.

Examples

Example 1: Tag a contract document with an internal reference number and department.

Set Envelope ID and Document ID (e.g. 1). Under Document Fields, add Name=ContractRef, Value=C-1042, and Name=Department, Value=Legal.
