FAQ

Questions about Get Signature Request.

What does the Get Signature Request action do in Dropbox Sign?
Returns the signature request with per-signer status, audit trail, and PDF download URLs once complete. The standard lookup before downloading the signed PDF or for checking "did all signers finish yet" before downstream side-effects.
What inputs does Get Signature Request require?
Required: Signature Request ID. 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 Dropbox Sign 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 Get Signature Request support batch operations?
Yes. Run Get Signature Request inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles Dropbox Sign's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
