Contract dispatched at deal stage change

When a sales rep moves a deal to the Contract stage in HubSpot, the agent pulls the contact's details, creates the contract from the standard template in SignWell pre-filled with the prospect's name and deal value, logs a 'Contract sent' activity on the deal, and sends the rep a Slack confirmation — the prospect has a signing link in their inbox within about a minute of the stage change.

FAQs

Questions about SignWell + Actionist

How does Actionist connect to SignWell?
Go to the Apps tab, find SignWell, and click Connect. Actionist uses SignWell's REST API authenticated with an API key. In SignWell, go to Account Settings, click the API tab, and generate a new API key. Paste it into Actionist and click Test connection — Actionist runs a read-only call to verify the key before saving it. The whole setup takes under two minutes.
What permissions does the API key need on my SignWell account?
SignWell API keys inherit the permissions of the account they are generated under. A key generated from an account owner gives the agent full access to create, send, retrieve, and delete documents and templates. If you prefer a narrower permission scope, create a dedicated SignWell sub-account or user with only the permissions your workflows require, and generate the key from that account. There are no separate read-only or write-only scopes within a single key.
Can Actionist use my existing SignWell templates?
Yes. When you call Create Document From Template, you pass the template ID from your SignWell account. You can find template IDs in SignWell under Templates, or by having the agent call Get Template by name. Any template already in your account — NDAs, offer letters, vendor agreements, DPAs — is immediately available to your agents without any additional setup.
How do SignWell webhooks work with Actionist triggers?
SignWell emits webhook events when documents are sent, viewed, and completed. Actionist listens for these events and fires the corresponding trigger — Document Sent, Document Viewed, or Document Completed — within about a minute of the event occurring. From there, the trigger can kick off any downstream action: updating a CRM record, creating an invoice, archiving a PDF, or sending a Slack notification. You do not need to configure the webhooks manually — Actionist handles the registration when you activate the trigger.
Can I combine SignWell with other apps in the same agent workflow?
Yes — SignWell works best as part of a larger workflow. Common combinations include: creating documents from CRM data (HubSpot, Salesforce); filing completed PDFs in cloud storage (Google Drive, Notion); triggering invoices on contract completion (QuickBooks Online, Xero); sending status notifications in Slack or Telegram; and updating project trackers when signing deadlines approach. Any of Actionist's connected apps can send data to or receive data from SignWell in the same agent task.
How does bulk sending work and when should I use it?
Create Bulk Send lets you send the same document template to a large list of recipients in one operation — each recipient gets their own individual signed document, not a shared copy. You provide a CSV with recipient names and email addresses, and SignWell generates a separate document instance per row. Use it for annual policy acknowledgements, vendor re-certifications, customer terms updates, or any situation where the same agreement needs to go to tens or hundreds of people simultaneously. The agent can then call Get Bulk Send weekly to track completion until all recipients have signed.
Is SignWell legally compliant for the agreements my agents send?
SignWell is compliant with ESIGN, UETA, eIDAS, GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type II. Documents signed through SignWell are legally binding in the US, EU, and most other major jurisdictions. Every signed document includes a full audit certificate with signing timestamps, signer IP addresses, and email verification records. Actionist does not alter the signing process — it only automates document creation and dispatch; the legal validity of the signature itself is governed entirely by SignWell.
What happens to documents when the agent calls Delete Document — does the signer lose access immediately?
Yes. Calling Delete Document in SignWell cancels the signing request immediately. Any signer who clicks their signing link after deletion will see an error page indicating the document is no longer available. Deleted documents are removed from the active queue and cannot be recovered — use this action deliberately (for recalled documents, lost deals, or test cleanup) and make sure you have downloaded the PDF via Get Completed PDF first if the document was already partially signed and you need a record.
