How To: Create a DocuSign Envelope List View

You can create a DocuSign envelope list view to see all envelopes received, sent, drafted and deleted in the last 30 days. Use the DocuSign Envelope SmartObject's List method, which, as configured here, returns envelope activity.

The DocuSign service type allows K2 to integrate with DocuSign. For more information on how to enable this integration see DocuSign Feature Activation.
