Multiple files

SWF and PAS support multiple files per task, meaning only one sign action per signer is needed to sign multiple files.

The default limit is set to 5 documents per task, but this can be configured (read more below). Increasing this limit could lead to performance issues, which is why we recommend not to increase this number.

Configuration

To accept multiple files, set this in your config.json file:

"files": {
  "maxFileSize": 10_000_000L,
  "maxNumberOfFiles": 5,
  "allowAppendixes": false
}
Click to copy
  • files - the wrapper object
  • maxFileSize - The maximum size of each individual file
  • maxNumberOfFiles - The maximum number of files accepted in one task
  • allowAppendixes - Whether to allow appendixes, see below

Appendixes

Appendixes, meaning files that are included to support signers in the signing process but will not themselves be signed, are also supported. They will be shown in the signing flow. The user doesn't have to view them before signing the task. To enable this feature, set allowAppendixes within the files object (see below) to true. To add an appendix, upload it and click the Appendix radio button.

Since appendixes won't be signed, they don't need to adhere to the configured PDF flavors.
