docusign.document-generation.get-envelope-doc-gen-form-fields
Given an envelopeId, this method returns the sender fields found in that envelope's documents. After you retrieve the sender fields, use the DocumentGeneration::updateEnvelopeDocGenFormFields method to populate the fields. If the specified envelope does not contain a document with sender fields, the method will return success (200) and an empty object ({}) in the response. ### Next steps - Learn about document generation in the eSignature concepts guide. - Learn how to send an envelope with document generation in your preferred coding language.
