Signers_Intro

Signers are the people who will sign the documents.

  • You do not share your signers, and related due diligence you have done with them with other IgniSign clients!

    Signers are segregated by applications and environments.
    So, if you have 2 applications, the same person will be two different signer.

  • Signers have claims. Claims are the information that have to be "verified" to be able to sign the document.

  • Some Claims are related to the identification, others to the authentication.

  • Signature Profiles define the claims that are needed to sign the document.

  • When signers launch a Signature session , Identification or Authentication Registration could be prompted to the signer to VERIFY or DECLARE some claims needed to properly sign the documents

To know which inputs are needed, you can use the API call Get Signer Creation Constraints If you have a signer that is already created, but need to add some inputs, you can update it with the API call Update Signer.

This principle of claims could be a little bit complex to understand, but it's one of the key elements that allow IgniSign to be able to sign.

Globally you do not have to manage it, IgniSign do it for You.
