Select Type of eSignature/Digital Signature

This screen allows you to define who will sign the envelope and how the signing will be performed. This step determines the signing flow before signature fields are placed on the document.

Screen Overview

This screen is divided into two sections:

  1. Who will be signing the envelope?

  2. I want to sign with

A workflow progress indicator at the bottom shows:

  • Step 1: Upload Document (Completed)

  • Step 2: Add Participants (Current)

  • Step 3: Set Signature


1. Who Will Be Signing the Envelope?

Select one of the following options to define signer participation:

The flow presumes that the originator of the document is the only person who will sign the document.

  • This option is chosen if the user is the sole signer of the document.

  • No additional participants will be added.

  • Commonly used for self-approvals, internal declarations, or personal documents.


2. I Want to Sign With

Select the signing method to be used for the envelope. The available options on this screen are:

eSignature

  • Allows signers to apply an electronic signature using platform-supported methods such as typed, drawn, or image-based signatures.

  • Suitable for low to medium risk transactions and high-volume workflows.

Digital Signature (Token or Smart Card)

  • Enables signing using a cryptographic digital signature backed by a hardware token or smart card.

  • Provides higher assurance, signer identity binding, and non-repudiation.

  • Commonly used for regulated, contractual, or compliance-driven documents.


Note: The availability of other signing methods such as Qualified Electronic Signatures in EU, AADHAAR eSign or country specific remote signing modes depends on account configuration, regulatory requirements, and organizational policy.
