RSign - Microsoft Power Platform: User guide

Updated

The certified RSign® connector brings secure, legally binding e-signatures to the Microsoft Power Platform. By natively integrating RSign® with Power Automate, Power Apps, Copilot Studio, and Logic Apps, users can build document workflows and custom applications without writing code. From automating complex signature cycles to managing real-time request statuses, RSign® streamlines digital processes directly within the Microsoft ecosystem.

This article covers the following topics:

 

Pre-requisites

To use RSign® in the Power Platform apps, you will need the following.

On the RSign side

- Active RSign® login credentials and an appropriate RSign® user plan.

- Access to the RSign® APIs and your company’s unique Reference Key. (If you don’t have your Reference Key, please contact your RPost® representative)

On the Microsoft side

- An active Premium account with proper access to the apps and capabilities required by your integration (the plan should include access to custom connectors).

Note: Microsoft Power Platform users are responsible for their own Microsoft plans and billing.

 

Actions supported in the RSign® certified connector

The certified RSign® connector allows you to set up various actions to send e-signature requests and manage them in your own automated workflows/apps, among other actions. Here are the currently available actions you can set up with RSign in Microsoft Power Platform:

- Get AuthToken: Authenticates the user based on their RSign® credentials and retrieves a necessary token (AuthToken) required for all subsequent actions.

- Send Envelope Using a Template: Sends an eSignature request to the selected recipients using a pre-configured RSign® template. Check this article to learn how to use RSign® Templates.

- Send Envelope Using a Rule: Sends an eSignature request to selected recipients using a pre-configured RSign® rule. Check this article to learn how to use RSign® Rules.

- Retrieve Template Information: Retrieves the information about a Template or Rule based on its Code. Among the information returned is the Template name, documents and roles defined when creating that template on RSign® Web.

- Retrieve Envelope Status: Retrieves the status of an Envelope based on its Envelope Code.

- Retrieve Envelope Documents: Retrieves the documents part of an Envelope based on its Envelope Code. It retrieves the original and/or the Final Signed Documents.

6. Customize your action settings as needed and add as many actions as you need to achieve your required workflow.

Note: For all flows using the RSign connector, you will always need to add the Get AuthToken action first, to get a token that will be used in all subsequent RSign actions.

7. Once you have finished setting up your flow, save it and test it. After a successful test, your flow will be turned on and will run according to your configuration.
