Signature Field Types

Four field types to cover every signing scenario

E-signature field types illustration

Signature Fields

Signers can draw their signature with a mouse or finger, or type their name to generate a signature. Each signer gets their own field: {{esign.signature_1}}, {{esign.signature_2}}, etc.

Date Fields

Automatically capture the date when the signer signs using {{esign.date_1}}. The date is recorded in the signer's timezone and included in the audit trail.

Text Input Fields

Collect additional information from signers like printed name, job title, or company. Use {{esign.text_1_label}} with a unique label for each text field.

Checkbox Fields

Add agreement checkboxes for terms acceptance, privacy policy consent, or any other acknowledgment. Use {{esign.checkbox_1_label}} with descriptive labels.

Audit Trail & Compliance Deep Dive

Every signature is backed by a tamper-proof audit trail that ensures legal validity and regulatory compliance

Every action in the signing process is logged with a precise UTC timestamp — from when the invitation was sent, to when the document was opened, to the exact moment each field was signed.

The audit trail captures the signer's full name, email address, IP address, and user agent string. This creates a clear chain of evidence linking each signature to a verified individual.

A cryptographic hash of the document is recorded before and after signing, proving the document was not altered between generation and signature completion.

Download a complete PDF audit report for any signing session. The report includes all events, signer details, timestamps, and compliance information — ready for legal review or regulatory audits.

DocsAutomator e-signatures meet the requirements of the EU eIDAS Regulation for Advanced Electronic Signatures, the US ESIGN Act, and UETA — making them legally enforceable across jurisdictions.

Receive real-time webhook notifications when signing events occur. Integrate signing status into your existing workflows, CRM, or compliance tracking systems.
