Docusign Developer Console now in beta

On April 11, 2024, at our Momentum conference, we introduced the new Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) Platform and outlined exciting new offerings for developers. Today, I am thrilled to announce the open beta release of one of those key offerings: Docusign Developer Console. My name is Rajvir Sethi, and I’m a Senior Product Manager on the developer experience platform team at Docusign. 

The Docusign Developer Console is a comprehensive tool designed to empower developers to build, test, launch, monitor, and manage their extension apps—all from a single place. This innovative tool introduces a new level of integration called “Extensibility,” which allows developers to integrate their unique functionalities or services into Docusign products and distribute those integrations as extension apps through the new Docusign App Center. 

With extension apps, you’ll be able to light up new use cases for your customers, such as reading and writing data into external systems, archiving documents after they are signed, or verifying user input from signers while completing a document. The enablement of such use cases will transform how customers across industries and geographies manage their agreements, and you can now play a key part in this transformation using the Docusign Developer Console.

Key Features of the Docusign Developer Console during Open Beta

Build

The Developer Console provides an intuitive JSON-based interface for building extension apps that integrate seamlessly with our new IAM platform. This interface includes robust validations to help prevent errors, enabling developers to build extension apps with ease and less effort.

Test

Quality is paramount, and the Developer Console includes comprehensive testing features to enable you to perform both integration and functional tests with our other platform offerings, such as Maestro workflows and eSignature templates. This feature ensures your extension apps work flawlessly with our IAM platform.

Submit for Review

Once your extension app is ready and tested, the Developer Console provides an easy way to submit it for review. Upon submission, our review team assesses your extension app from business, security, legal, and technical standpoints to ensure it delivers exceptional and reliable customer experiences.

Publish

Upon approval, you can use the publishing feature of the Developer Console to launch your extension app on the Docusign App Center with a single click, reaching millions of potential customers in the US region. 

Join us in building the future

The release of the Docusign Developer Console is a significant milestone in our commitment to fostering a vibrant developer community. By introducing this tool, we aim to support developers in driving forward the future of our IAM platform and creating unparalleled customer value.
