Summary

Retrieve a user authorization from DocuSign.

Inputs

  • authentication — Authentication method to use for DocuSign API access. OAuth2 is the most common; JWT (Service Integration) uses a service account key for server-to-server calls without user context. Defaults to OAuth2 if not configured otherwise.
  • category — DocuSign API category that scopes the authorization context. Determines which set of resources and endpoints the operation addresses. Defaults to 'envelopes'.
  • accountId (required) — The DocuSign Account ID (GUID). Locate this in DocuSign Admin → API and Keys. Required for all account-scoped operations.
  • userId (required) — The ID (GUID) of the user whose authorization is being retrieved.
  • authorizationId (required) — The ID of the specific authorization record to retrieve.

object

Returns the authorization details as specified by the DocuSign API, including authorization ID, associated user ID, and applicable scopes/permissions. Exact field layout depends on the DocuSign API response for the get user authorization endpoint.

Examples

Example 1: Fetch a user's authorization using OAuth2 account credentials.

Set authentication to OAuth2, provide the target account GUID in accountId, the user GUID in userId, and the authorization record ID in authorizationId. The node will issue a GET request to DocuSign's /oauth/user_info or equivalent endpoint and return the authorization payload.
