Docusign
Our DocuSign integration enables teams to automate the generation, routing, and signing of quotes, SOWs, MSAs, and custom agreements, seamlessly from within the platform. By embedding e-signature capabilities directly into your quoting workflows, MonetizeNow eliminates friction between sales closure and customer commitment.
This integration supports secure authentication, intelligent document delivery, and real-time signature tracking. Once configured, your team can send documents for signature with a click, track signing status within MonetizeNow, and access signed contracts, all without toggling between systems.
But the real value lies in how this integration aligns with modern deal cycles:
- No more disconnected document handling
- No more email delays for signature follow-ups
- No more manual uploads of signed paperwork
DocuSign meets you where the deal lives: inside MonetizeNow.
Once connected, MonetizeNow handles document delivery, tracks envelope status, and syncs signed copies back into the quote or contract object, giving your team an end-to-end signature workflow powered by DocuSign.
Integration Overview
MonetizeNow <> DocuSign integration supports:
- Secure connection using HMAC + OAuth-based authentication
- Sandbox and Production environments
- Document delivery via a specified Admin user
- Automated status sync for signed documents

DocuSign Configuration Guide
Before enabling e-signature workflows, there are a few foundational pieces you’ll need in place.

User ID | The unique identifier for the DocuSign user that will send signature requests from MonetizeNow. |

HMAC Secret Key | Required for authentication. This key is generated in the DocuSign Connect settings and is visible only once. |
HMAC Key ID | The identifier associated with the HMAC key. Displayed next to the secret key after creation. |
Note: If you are missing access to any of the above fields, reach out to your organization’s DocuSign Admin to retrieve them.

Use the following reference to locate each required value in your DocuSign account:
MonetizeNow Field | Source Location in DocuSign |
---|---|
User ID | Settings → Integrations → Apps and Keys |

Sending Documents for Signature
Once the integration is successfully connected, you can begin sending documents for e-signature directly from within MonetizeNow. The signature workflow is designed to fit naturally into the quoting and contracting processes, while keeping control with your team.
This section outlines the steps to send a document, what happens behind the scenes, and what to expect post-signature.
The process to send a document for signature begins from the quote or contract view:
- Open the quote or agreement record.
- Click Send for Signature.
- Select signers and configure the routing order if required.
- Review the document preview and ensure the correct version is selected.
- Click Send.
At this point, MonetizeNow creates a DocuSign envelope in the background and triggers delivery to the specified recipient(s).
What happens after sending
Once the envelope is created:
- DocuSign sends the document to the selected recipients for signing.
- Each signer receives an email from DocuSign with a secure link to review and sign the document.
- The envelope remains tracked within MonetizeNow, with its current status displayed in the quote or contract view.
Statuses include: Sent, Viewed, Completed, Declined, Voided
You do not need to manage these statuses manually, MonetizeNow syncs them from DocuSign automatically.
Resending and Managing Signatures
If a signer misplaces the DocuSign email or if the document needs to be voided, you can manage the envelope directly within MonetizeNow:
- Resend: Trigger a reminder email from the quote or contract record.
- Void: Cancel the signature request before it is completed.
- Replace signer: Withdraw the original request and resend to the correct party.
Final Document Handling
Once all signatures are collected:
- The signed PDF is attached to the original quote or agreement in MonetizeNow.
- The signature status is updated to Completed.
- Quote stage will now be moved forward for Processing
Envelope Status Sync
Once an envelope is sent through DocuSign, MonetizeNow automatically monitors its progress and reflects changes in real-time. This section explains how status updates are synced, where you can monitor them, and how to troubleshoot common issues if something breaks in the flow.
How Status Sync Works
After a document is sent for signature, MonetizeNow establishes a background connection to the associated DocuSign envelope. This enables:
- Automatic polling and webhook-based updates from DocuSign
- Real-time visibility into document status from within the quote or contract record
- Secure handling of completed signature artifacts (e.g., signed PDFs)
Status changes in DocuSign will appear in MonetizeNow within a short window. No manual refresh is required. You can view envelope status under the quote or agreement section where the signature was initiated.
Admin Visibility
Admins can track signature activity, investigate failures, and review document logs directly in MonetizeNow under:
Settings → Audit Logs → eSign Activity
This section shows timestamped events for each envelope and can help identify when and why a failure occurred.
Error Scenarios and What to Check
Scenario | Likely Cause | Resolution |
---|---|---|
Status not updating in MN | Webhook not configured or blocked | Verify DocuSign Connect webhook settings and ensure the endpoint is active. |
Signed document not attached | Envelope status updated but document sync failed | Check if DocuSign account permissions allow download access for completed envelopes. |
HMAC key mismatch | HMAC secret or ID was rotated after initial setup | Regenerate the HMAC key in DocuSign and update the value in MonetizeNow Settings. |
Signer didn’t receive email | Email address was mistyped or blocked | Confirm recipient email address and request re-delivery from the quote record. |
Envelope shows as Voided unexpectedly | Document expired or was canceled from DocuSign admin console | Review expiration settings in DocuSign or re-initiate the process with new envelope |
