Setting up Signers group

Hi there, Unfortunately, groups in eSignLive require each member to be a sender. Though, you have the ability to activate each sender immediately and not wait for a sender to create an esignlive account. Have a look at the guide below on how to do so: https://developer.esignlive.com/guides/feature-guides/senders/

So to confirm, if we want to setup a group of signers, each member need to have sender access also.

Hi, I'm trying to setup a group signing as part of a document signing ceremony. I'm using the REST API with PHP. I have it working somewhat. My only issue is that the Group is set to send email to the members of the group and not the group email. However, the group email gets the notification and not the members. I assume I have something wrong in my role definition (see below). I'm getting the Group ID and email with an API call to get the list of groups and then searching for my 'Test Group'. Any guidance? Thanks, Scott ( [type] => SIGNER [id] => Signer2 [index] => 2 [signers] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => a769a2df-5377-4f93-b9c6-xxxxxxxxxxxx // ID returned from the /groups query [firstName] => Test Group [lastName] => [email] => [email protected] // Email of the group [group] => Array ( [id] => a769a2df-5377-4f93-b9c6-xxxxxxxxxxxx // Same ID as signer [name] => Test Group [email] => [email protected] // Same email (group email) ) ) ) )

Hi there, You'll need to update your group to notify individual members of the group:

PUT https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api/groups/{groupId}

{
  "emailMembers": true
}

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi Haris, Thanks for the quick reply. I set the Group up for that through the Dashboard (see attached). Do I need to send that to the group as well just before I send the package? Thanks,

After some trial and error I have found my problem. The solution was to remove the email entry from the 'signers' array. Apparently that takes precedence over the group members being notified. Once I removed that, the members got the email. -Scott
