User → Update
AI-generatedSummary
Updates a user's first and/or last name in the DocuSign organization configured in the credentials, via a PUT to the DocuSign Admin (Management v2) API.
Inputs
- userId (required) — ID of the user to update. Must be non-empty or the node throws an error.
- updateFields — Collection of fields to change: First Name (firstName) and Last Name (lastName). Sent as-is as the PUT request body. If empty, no body is sent.
Output shape
The JSON response from the DocuSign Admin API for the updated user, returned as one or more items per input item, paired to the input item.
The organization ID comes from the credentials, not a node parameter. Requests time out after 30 seconds. They retry up to 3 times with exponential backoff on 429 and 5xx/network errors, but not on other 4xx errors. With Continue On Fail enabled, errors are returned as an item with an
errormessage. Only firstName and lastName are exposed as updatable. The source does not translate them to the API's snake_case names (first_name/last_name) as the create operation does, so the API may not apply them.
Examples
Example 1: Correct a user's last name after a name change
Resource: User, Operation: Update, User ID: the DocuSign user GUID, Update Fields: add Last Name = 'Smith'.
Example 2: Sync names from an HR system
User ID set via expression {{$json.docusignUserId}}, Update Fields: First Name = {{$json.first}}, Last Name = {{$json.last}}.
