In order to configure Hellosign as your electronic signing platform, you must first obtain certain information from Hellosign. Navigate to the Hellosign home page at:

https://www.hellosign.com

and log in using your credentials. If you don’t yet have credentials, you can sign up for a trial account by clicking Sign Up or logging in using your Google account.

Once you have logged in, navigate to your Hellosign settings by clicking on the Settings button under your profile menu as shown.

Then, navigate to the CRM integration screen on your Flexidocs console:

and select Hellosign as your electronic signing platform. Then, paste this key into the section for Esign API / Integration Key as shown below. Once you have done this, click Update Settings and then Validate Electronic Signing Connection. If the settings are valid, the system will indicate that you have connected successfully to Hellosign.

Once you have done this, you’re almost there. Note the callback URL that is displayed in the Flexidocs electronic signing settings, in the format:

https://console.flexidocs.co/electronicsigning/callback/XXXX

Copy this to your clipboard. Then, paste the callback URL into your hellosign settings under the Account Callback setting. This allows us to capture key signing events in real time back into the CRM. Once you’ve pasted the setting, click Test and if the callback is working correctly, the system will indicate this.
