E-sign document

Hippoly Docs supports e-signing directly in the workspace, using the same secure Scrive-powered e-signing as files and meeting minutes. Once a document is signed, it's locked as read-only and a signed PDF is stored alongside it.

E-signing a document requires that your workspace has e-signing enabled and has available signing credits. Check with your workspace administrator if you're not sure.

1

Open the document you want to send for signing. The document should be ready for signing — once the signing flow starts, no more changes can be made.

2

Click the Sign action. If the document is still a draft, Hippoly will remind you that it's about to be shared as part of the signing flow.

3

Follow the prompts to add the signers and any additional signing options, then confirm. Hippoly sends the signing request.

4

While signing is in progress, the document shows a Pending signing indicator. Once all signers have signed, the document status changes to Signed and the signed PDF is stored alongside the document.

After signing

A signed document is read-only — no one can edit its content. You can still download the signed PDF and view the document's version history. See Download document to get the signed PDF.
