docuSign - envelopeViews : createRecipient

ERROR: Content Type specified is not supported.

Hi there, I am new to DocuSign and I am trying to learn the implementation from last couple of days. What I did so far is, created a developer account and created a QuickStart project.

Goal I want to integrate the DocuSign API's in my application, but I don't really want the user to leave my application. I just want to make use of DocuSign within my app. - Embedded Signing

What I did?

I successfully created an envelope with a sample document and after that I have to get that URL to view (for Recipient). So I called the below API:

** EnvelopeViews: createRecipient** ** POST - {{baseUrl}}/v2.1/accounts/{{accountId}}/envelopes/{{envelopeId}}/views/recipient**

All the details, like accountId, envelopeId are correct, along with that the request body that I pass with this is:

Request Body

{
    "authenticationMethod": "none",
    "clientUserId": "bcc49234-f30b-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "recipientId": "007",
    "returnUrl":"http://localhost",
    "userName": "user name"  
}

Note: * clientUserId is my Integration Key (please let me know if this is what I need to pass here or something else).*

Response

   {
           "errorCode": "INVALID_CONTENT_TYPE",
           "message": "Content Type specified is not supported."
   }

Note: Apart from the solution, please provide any link(s) to resources where I can easily see the implementation(as in my use case).

Umair, First clientUserId is a bit of a confusing term, it's not the IK (Integration Key) but any string you want. It is unique to the signer and the envelope. You choose it.

You can find a detailed example of this with code in 8 languages on the DocuSign Developer Center How To Request Signature Through your app page.

I'm not clear how you make the API calls, if you are using postman, there are headers that needs to be set. One of them is called Content-Type and it has to be set to text/plain.
