Look up a signature request when needed

Send a request to your Notis webhook and get the latest details for a specific Dropbox Sign signature request.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Signature Request

Retrieves the current status and complete details of a signature request by ID. Use this action to: - Check if signers have viewed, signed, or declined the request - Get signer information and signature timestamps - Access form field responses and custom field values - Retrieve URLs for document downloads and management - Monitor signature request progress and completion status Returns detailed information including signer names, emails, signing status, custom fields, response data, attachments, and signing options. Handles errors gracefully with structured error responses for invalid or non-existent signature request IDs.

Why this helps

Finding a request's latest status can interrupt focused work, especially when the request ID is already available elsewhere.

  • Look up a specific request when needed
  • Retrieve signer and status details
  • Start the lookup from an HTTP request

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the signature request ID from the incoming HTTP request to retrieve and summarize its current status.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real signature request ID and confirm the returned details.
