Publishing Template Links for Online Signing
Signority’s
Template Links help expedite applications by making forms available online. Creating and publishing Template Links will generate an URL link that can then be used anywhere online - in emails or on your website.
You'll be redirected to the
Editor page, same as when creating a template. As with a
Regular Template, you'll need to
Add Files to create the document. When it's successfully uploaded, the document should be visible on the editor.
Unlike with a Regular Template, instead of
Roles or
Signers, you'll notice that the first signer is already designated as the
Initial Link Signer. This is the person who clicks on the generated URL to access the document and initiates the signing process. Also, when adding other signers, you can set them as either a Person or a Placeholder. As shown below, a
Person is a specific signer, with their name and email. A
Placeholder is a signer that only the initial link signer knows. So for example, if you, as the template link creator, does not know the signer's manager information, you can make the
Manager a Placeholder and let the
Initial
Link Signer enter their own manager's name and email to continue the workflow.
When you're done with the recipients, you can edit some of the document settings as well in the
Settings button in the top. Finally, when you're finished with the setup, drag and drop the needed tags and assign them to the right signers.
When you're done tagging the document, click
More to
Save File before clicking on
Publish to generate the URL.
Once you've clicked
Publish, you'll get a pop-up to change the
Current Status of the link. Make sure it's set to
Published and then click OK.
Then copy the
Publishing Link and use that URL to embed to your website or emails. If you are sending the link to a specific person, you can use an Auto filling link. This option allows you to automatically populate the signer's information into the form so that they don't need to fill it out after clicking on your link.
And that's it, with your Publishing Link URL, there are a ton of things you can do with it, such as streamline your employee onboarding, embedding the form into an iFrame on your website, or just simply collect simple forms, like liability and waiver forms.
