Hi Team, I need to pass a custom field while creating a package. But the custom field is showing in the document while signing, since I have mentioned it as Type:"INPUT", SubType:"CustomField". But, I should not be showing the field to user while signing the document. So, Is there any other field type that I can use for this purpose?. Thanks in advance.

Hi there, Just for my information, can you tell me more about your use case? Why you want to pass some value without letting signer seeing, and what these values for? Because from my knowledge, during signing ceremony, all approvals related to a role and all fields included in these approvals will be shown to the signer. Duo

Hi Duo, The usecase is as follows: I will be creating a package by passing some custom fields with values, which need not to be shown to signer.(Since, it will be used only for handling the package.). So, that when the package got signed. I can get the custom field values(which I have passed while creating the package.) and do some operations on my application with the values. Thanks, Sethuraman.R

Hi Sethuraman, So that, I would suggest to use Package Attributes Feature(guidance) vs custom fields feature. Custom fields are really alike common fields(signature, text, label fields), they will be shown at signing ceremony and after the signer finished his/her part, the custom fields will be part of the document, which I think is not suitable for your case. While on the other hand, with package attributes, you can store some information temporary at the package level and after the package is completed, you can retrieve them again and integrate into your own workflow. Hope this could help you! Duo
