Overview

To authenticate with Documenso, you need:
  1. Environment — the Documenso environment your account is on.
  2. API Token — a Documenso API token for the team you want to connect.
This guide will show you how to get them.

Prerequisites

  • A Documenso account. The API is available on all plans, including Free. You can sign up here.

Step 1: Choose your environment

Select the environment matching the Documenso app you log in to: The staging environment needs its own account; your production account does not work there. See Demo environment.

Step 2: Create an API token

API tokens belong to a team and give full access to that team.
  1. Sign in to Documenso and switch to the team you want to connect.
  2. Go to Team Settings -> API Tokens, then click Create token.
