Authentication

Service Integrations that use Legacy Header Authentication

(Legacy Header Authentication uses the X-DocuSign-Authentication header.)

1. Use the Authentication: login method to retrieve the account number and the baseUrl for the account. The url for the login method is www.docusign.net for production and demo.docusign.net for the developer sandbox. The baseUrl field is part of the loginAccount object. See the docs and the loginAccount object
2. The baseUrl for the selected account, in production, will start with na1, na2, na3, eu1, or something else. Use the baseUrl that is returned to create the basePath (see the next step.) Use the basePath for all of your subsequent API calls.
3. As returned by login method, the baseUrl includes the API version and account id. Split the string to obtain the basePath, just the server name and api name. Eg, you will receive https://na1.docusign.net/restapi/v2/accounts/123123123. You want just https://na1.docusign.net/restapi
4. Instantiate the SDK using the basePath. Eg ApiClient apiClient = new ApiClient(basePath);
5. Set the authentication header as shown in the examples by using Configuration.Default.AddDefaultHeader

User Applications that use OAuth Authentication

1. After obtaining a Bearer token, call the OAuth: Userinfo method. Obtain the selected account's base_uri (server name) field. The url for the Userinfo method is account-d.docusign.com for the demo/developer environment, and account.docusign.com for the production environment.
2. Combine the base_uri with "/restapi" to create the basePath. The base_uri will start with na1, na2, na3, eu1, or something else. Use the basePath for your subsequent API calls.
3. Instantiate the SDK using the basePath. Eg ApiClient apiClient = new ApiClient(basePath);
4. Create the authentication_value by combining the token_type and access_token fields you receive from either an Authorization Code Grant or Implicit Grant OAuth flow.
5. Set the authentication header by using Configuration.Default.AddDefaultHeader('Authorization', authentication_value)

Testing

Unit tests are available in the Test folder.

Changelog

[3.0.0] - 2017-03-10

BREAKING

• The SDK now supports theFull and latest DocuSign API support(17.1.00.00). NO MORE OMITTED ENDPOINTS.
• Getter and setter methods of all models' fields were removed. Direct access to models' fields is now required. See the code snippet in README.md and test/SdkUnitTests.js for example.
• Added optional opts to several methods across different APIs. Old client code might need to be updated prior to using 3.0.0 and above.
• Methods that accept optional parameters, defined as opts, now accept plain javascript objects only. For instance AuthenticationApi.login({'api_password': true}) will return a fake password that can be used in subsequent API calls instead of the original password.

Removed

• All Optional data structures that were used as optional parameters for some API methods (in the form ofDocusign.XxxApi.doSomethingOptions). Use javascript plain objects instead.

Added

• Complete and proper SDK Documentation, including detailed information and links about all modules and methods of the SDK.
• New test case: create a DocuSign template.

Fixed

• Issue #52: TypeError: self.envelopeTemplateDefinition.constructFromObject is not a function.

Changed

• Updated the package with the latest API release.
