Are there any Designer page URL parameters available to selectively disable certain Designer page features so that users can only edit signature box placement and nothing else?

Hello,

We are creating a OneSpan signature package using REST API calls. We create the signature package with all signers created, all documents uploaded, and all signature package settings set except the placement of signer signature boxes on the various documents.

We leave the signature package in draft mode at this point as the signature boxes have not been placed yet.

For the signature box placement, we are getting a sender authentication token by REST API and then directing our staff to an IFRAME frame (within our own in-house web UI) that shows the OneSpan Designer view web page using a Designer URL like https://sandbox.esignlive.com/auth?senderAuthenticationToken={senderToken}&target=https://sandbox.esignlive.com/a/transaction/{packageId}/designer.

This is the approach described in the very helpful OneSpan feature page about doing this at https://community.onespan.com/documentation/onespan-sign/guides/feature-guides/developer/creating-designer-session.

My question is if there are any Designer session URL parameters available to selectively disable certain page UI features so that users can only edit signature box placement and edit nothing else?

What is happening to us is that our staff are sometimes clicking the dot menu UI control in the page to place signature boxes which allows them to manually edit other aspects of the signature package, such as adding or removing documents, or changing signers, or changing signature package options. If users manually edit such settings after we have set them via the REST API, this breaks our later processing of the signature package.

I would like to be able to configure the Designer session URL (if this is possible) such that the page allows only signature box placement (and sending of the package) with no other OneSpan UI controls present for any other edit actions (so any other edit actions become not possible).

Thanks,
Tim

Hi dsoon,

Thanks so much for the pointer to that blog post!

It is very helpful to know that we can request a customized version of the Designer page UI by contacting OneSpan support.

For others, this customization is not exposed in the API. One must contact OneSpan support and request a custom Designer page profile be created with the desired UI configuration. But kudos to OneSpan that this is available in some way. The customizations include/support our desire to turn off all the UI controls we don't want to be used on this page.

Thanks again, dsoon.

Regards,
Tim
