Node.js SDK

The Node.js eSignature SDK is provided by Docusign to help Node.js developers use the Docusign eSignature REST API. It is provided as both an npm package and an open source repo on GitHub. The Node.js eSignature SDK is also used when developers opt to get started with the Node.js Quickstart, which generates ready-to-use, personalized Node.js code.

Compatibility

The Node.js eSignature SDK is compatible with Node.js 9 and later.
The Node.js eSignature SDK package is dependent on other Node.js packages. The list of dependencies can be found on the docusign-esign npm registry page. Next to each dependency is the minimum version required for that package.

SDK versions

New versions of the SDK are released periodically to use the latest version of the eSignature REST API. SDK versions use the standard period-separated semantic versioning scheme. General release versions are of the form x.y.z, and release candidate (prerelease) versions are of the form x.y.z-rc.

The SDK’s changelog lists each SDK update and its notable changes from the prior version.

Developers are not required to update their applications to new versions of the SDK, unless there’s a specific reason to do so:

Access to a new eSignature API feature or method.
An SDK bug fix including security-related issues.
To support an updated version of one of the SDK’s dependencies.

SDK Issues

If you find any issues with the SDKs, you can open an issue on the GitHub repo, or reach out to Support.
