Docusign UpdateRecipients

Our application creates a draft envelope from a template using the API with 2 roles.

rolename: "signer1" "recipientId":"1", "roleName":"signer1", "routingOrder":"1", "email":"email1", "name":"name1"

rolename: "signer2" "recipientId":"2", "roleName":"signer2", "routingOrder":"2", "email":"email2", "name":"name2"

The draft creates properly and I can send this out as is.

The question is, if I want to update one of the recipients via API before sending, what field does docusign use to know which recipient you are trying to update?

e.g. I want to change the email address of signer1

I hope the question is clear enough.

To modify an existing recipient from a Draft envelop, you need to use the "recipeintId" to refer to a specific Recipient and then enter the details you wish to modify in your PUT call. Below you will find an example when I modifying recipientId 1 and I am giving him a new name and email address.

Note: I am using the X-DocuSign-Authentication header in the example for simplicity instead for security measure the bearer token should be used.

Doc: Link to DocuSign Documentation

PUT https://{server}/restapi/{apiVersion}/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/recipients

X-DocuSign-Authentication: <DocuSignCredentials><Username>{name}</Username><Password>{password}</Password><IntegratorKey>{integrator_key}</IntegratorKey></DocuSignCredentials>
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
{
 "signers" :
 [
   {
     "email": "[email protected]",
     "name": "John Doe",
     "recipientId": "1"
    }
 ]
}

To collect the recipiendId of your envelop you can use. The GET request with the similar URL 

GET https://{server}/restapi/{apiVersion}/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/recipients
