Account

Enter or map the account that you want to use to access the DocuSign API.

For example: /api/conversations.create

Select the HTTP request method you need to configure the API call. For more information, see HTTP request methods.

Headers

For example, {"Content-type":"application/json"}

Note: If you're getting errors and it's difficult to determine their origin, consider modifying headers based on the Workfront documentation. If your Custom API Call returns a 422 HTTP Request Error, try using a "Content-Type":"text/plain" header.

For example: {"name":"something-urgent"}
