Configuring basic authentication details for DocuSign envelope requests
Although OAuth 2.0 is a more robust and secure authentication method for your DocuSign API calls, you can use basic authentication for development environments or proof-of-concept use case scenarios because this method requires less configuration.
- For the authentication configuration in this data transform to take effect,
ensure that the Value field for the target production
level in the pyDocuSignauthProfile application setting is
empty. For more information, see Updating the DocuSign connection details.
Important: If you selected an Oath 2.0 authentication profile instance in the pyDocuSignAuthProfile application setting, then that configuration takes precedence over the settings for basic authentication. - Save the pySetEnvelopeCredentials data transform rule as part of your application ruleset, in the case type class that integrates the DocuSign services.
- Ensure that step 2.2 in the pyPrepareNewEnvelope data transform is enabled. For more information, see Preparing a DocuSign envelope.
- Find and open the pySetEnvelopeCredentials data transform.
- In step 2 of the data transform, set the
.pyRequest.pyXDSAuth property value equal to the
following expression:
"{\"Username\": \"your_docusign_username\",\"Password\": \"your_docusign_password\",\"IntegratorKey\":\"your_integration_key\"}" - If you are not using a void envelope flow, disable step 3 of the data transform.
- Confirm your settings by clicking Save.
