We've improved our Send a Document request by adding the possibility to set a sender. You can set a sender with an email address or membership_id.

{
  "sender":{
    "membership_id":"QMDSzwabfFzTgjW6KijHyu"
  },
  "message": "Hello! This document was sent from the PandaDoc API.",
  "subject": "Please check this test API document from PandaDoc",
  "silent": false
}

{
  "sender":{
    "email":"[email protected]"
  },
  "message": "Hello! This document was sent from the PandaDoc API.",
  "subject": "Please check this test API document from PandaDoc",
  "silent": false
}

We've improved our Link to CRM and from now on it's called Link Service. The main difference is the possibility to link your documents to any provider/entity type.

We've added new endpoints for webhooks actions. With webhooks, your integration can subscribe to the events happening in PandaDoc. You can list your subscriptions and events, as well as manage (create, read, update, and delete) individual subscriptions.

We're pleased to announce that we've added new file types to Create Document from File.

New file types:

• DocX;
• RTF.

See the documentation for more details.

📘

Field Tags only

You can only use field tags for all types of supported files.

Please be informed that we've added shared links for each recipient to Send Document, Document Details, and On Document Status Change responses.

Now you don't need to send documents via email ("silent": true) to provide all functionality of the recipient's view.

"recipients": [
        {
            "id": 118590764,
            "first_name": "Josh",
            "last_name": "Ron",
            "email": "[email protected]",
            "recipient_type": "signer",
            "signing_order": null,
            "shared_link": "https://app.pandadoc.com/document/f7ea21ae675b1712db7b942da65de3b828a4a43c"
        }
    ]

We're pleased to announce that we've delivered data merge feature for pricing tables via API. Now you can work with pricing tables via API in a more flexible way and prefill all types of columns.

Frequently, our customers need to name columns in the pricing table according to names in their system and that's where data merge may help. The data merge feature is available by default and the only thing you need to do is enable it in API as well.

Here is how you can check what names your columns have with the data merge feature by default and change them.

To use these column names instead of default ones you need to add the data_merge boolean parameter as true (false by default) into the pricing table object of the Create Document from PandaDoc Template request body and use them in the data section.

"pricing_tables": [
        {
            "name": "Pricing Table 1",
            "data_merge":true,
            "options": {
                "discount": {
                    "type": "absolute",
                    "name": "Discount",
                    "value": 2.26
                }
            },
            "sections": [
                {
                    "title": "Sample Section",
                    "default": true,
                    "rows": [
                        {
                            "options": {
                                "optional": true,
                                "optional_selected": true,
                                "qty_editable": true
                            },
                            "data": {
                                "Name": "Toy Panda",
                                "Description": "Fluffy!",
                                "Price": 10,
                                "QTY": 3,
                                "SKU":"TEST1",
                                "Tax": {
                                    "value": 7.5,
                                    "type": "percent"
                                },
                                "CustomText":"testcolumn"
                            },
                            "custom_fields": {
                                "Fluffiness": "5 / 5"
                            }
                        }
                    ]
                }
            ]
        }
    ]

As a result, all values from the document creation request will be properly matched with columns in the pricing table of the newly created document.

For more information on how to add and set your pricing table, visit our help center. You will also discover ways your recipients can interact with the pricing table. This is a fun feature you’ll want to explore more!

We're happy to announce that Field ID and Type are now available in the Document Details, Template Details, Content Library Item Details, and Webhooks.

Field ID parameter is unique across a document, so now it's possible to reference exactly the field you need.
Type parameter helps to process field values in different ways according to their types.

"fields": [
    {
      "field_id": "VAT_field",
      "type": "text",
      "uuid": "9330094d-cea5-46cf-869e-058b18a5ae15",
      "name": "vat_number",
      "title": "",
      "placeholder": "VAT number",
      "value": "CY99999999L",
      "merge_field": "vat_number"
    }
  ]

As you may know, we've delivered document bundling and document transaction.

• Document bundling allows you to group multiple documents, send and track them all at once, within a single transaction. Please be informed that we don't support document bundling via API at the moment.
• Document transaction is the dispatch of either one or multiple documents that have been bundled together, as part of the same agreement process.

Please find more details here.

What is a Document Transaction?

Basically, document transaction=document with a single or a few documents inside.

In this topic, you may find new possibilities and restrictions for the API. Your current API integrations will work in the same manner without any changes on your end.

• List Documents - includes all documents transactions no matter how many documents are inside each of them.
• Create Document from PandaDoc Template - you can create a document transaction from a template. The only thing that is not supported yet is a set of documents' names in the document transaction.

• Create Document from PDF - unfortunately, we don't support document transaction creation from multiple PDFs at the moment.The single PDF is allowed only.
• Document Status - returns a status of the document transaction.
• Document Details - returns details of the document transaction.
• Send Document - move a document transaction to sent status and send an optional email.
• Share Document - shares a document transaction as a share URL or embed view.
• Download Document - downloads a single PDF no matter if document transaction contains only one document or more. A query parameterseparate_files=true allows you to download files separately.
• Delete Document - deletes document transaction with all documents inside.
• Link to CRM - connects document transaction to CRMs.
• Document Attachments - unfortunately, we don't support document attachments via API for document transactions with more than one document inside.
• Change Document Status (manually) - changes a status of document transaction.
• Update Document Ownership - changes a document transaction ownership.
• Transfer All Documents Ownership - transfers all documents transactions ownership from one member to another.
