docusign.envelope-documents.put-document

Adds or replaces a document in an existing draft or in-process envelope. An in-process envelope is one that has been sent but not yet completed or voided. Note: When adding or modifying documents for an in-process envelope, Docusign recommends locking the envelope prior to making any changes. To add a new document, set the documentId path parameter to a new document ID. To replace a document, set the documentId path parameter to the document ID of the existing document. The tabs of the original document will be applied to the new document. For example, a request in cURL looks like this: $ curl --location --request PUT 'https://demo.docusign.net/restapi/v2.1/accounts/0cdb3ff3-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-e43af011006d/envelopes/ea4cc25b-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-a67a0a2a4f6c/documents/1' \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJ...bqg' \ --header 'Content-Disposition: filename="newDocument"' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/pdf' \ --data-binary '@/location/of/document.pdf' <ds-inlinemessage kind="warning"> If HTML document files contain <code><img></code> elements with the <code>src</code> attribute set to a path or URL, those images will not be displayed. Images in HTML files must be encoded in Base64 format, like this:<br/> <code><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlh...IQAAOw==" alt="Base64 encoded image" width="150" height="150"/></code> </ds-inlinemessage>

Version	1.0

Input Schema

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
base_url	string	Yes	—	Docusign API root, e.g. https://<host>/api
api_token	string	No	—	Bearer token; omit to use the workflow's token env var
accountid	string	Yes	—	The external account number (int) or account ID GUID.
documentid	string	Yes	—	The unique ID of the document within the envelope. Unlike other IDs in the eSignature API, you specify the documentId yourself. Typically the first document has the ID 1, the second document 2, and so on, but you can use any numbering scheme that fits within a 32-bit signed integer (1 through 2147483647). Tab objects have a documentId property that specifies the document on which to place the tab.
envelopeid	string	Yes	—	The envelope's GUID. Example: 93be49ab-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-f752070d71ec
body	json	Yes	—	Updated document content.
