FAQ

Questions about List Envelopes.

What does the List Envelopes action do in DocuSign?
Returns paginated envelopes with filters by status, sender, recipient email, time range. Useful for "all outstanding contracts" reporting and for "envelopes idle 7+ days" reminder workflows.
What inputs does List Envelopes require?
Required: Account ID, From Date. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if DocuSign returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does List Envelopes support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Envelopes inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles DocuSign's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
