Inputs

  • authentication — Authentication method to use for DocuSign API access. Defaults to OAuth2 if not specified; JWT (Service Integration) available for service account flows.
  • accountId (required) — The DocuSign Account ID (GUID). Find it in DocuSign Admin → API and Keys.
  • permissionProfileName (required) — The name of the new permission profile.
  • settings — Collection of boolean and option settings that control the permission profile's behavior and access scope.

Output shape

DocuSign API response confirming the created permission profile, typically returning the profile ID and its configured settings.

The operation creates a permission profile scoped to the specified account. The category parameter implicitly selects the permission scope (e.g., envelopes, templates, account settings, users & groups, billing, connect, folders, signing groups, power forms, bulk operations, workspaces, or advanced diagnostics), but the profile name and selected settings determine the exact permissions granted.

Examples

Example 1: Create a permission profile for envelope management using OAuth2 authentication

authentication: OAuth2; accountId: ; permissionProfileName: Envelope Management; settings: category set to Envelopes with default boolean settings
