About

BoldSign ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 12 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.

Overview

BoldSign is an e-signature API. This app covers the document lifecycle a workflow drives against an account that already has files uploaded through BoldSign’s own app or reachable at a public URL: send a document for signature, list and inspect its status, download the signed PDF and its audit trail, nudge pending signers, revoke a document, and mint an embedded signing link a workflow can hand to a UI. Template actions cover listing templates, reading a template’s roles, and sending a document by filling a template’s roles with real signers.

BoldSign’s API host is region-sharded — an account (and its API keys) lives on exactly one of api.boldsign.com (US), api-eu.boldsign.com, api-ca.boldsign.com or api-au.boldsign.com, chosen at connect time.

Uploading a brand-new file isn’t supported the way BoldSign’s own dashboard supports it: this pack’s Actions run in a sandbox whose ctx.fetch stringifies every request body, so a real multipart file upload cannot survive the trip. BoldSign’s send/send-from-template operations accept a fileUrls list as an alternative to an uploaded file, and that is what this app uses — the document must already be reachable at a URL (already in BoldSign, or hosted elsewhere).

Build with BoldSign

Three routes to the same 12 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from BoldSign's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.

Download Document

document-download

Download a document's PDF, base64-encoded.

Download Audit Trail

document-download-audit-log

Download a document's signing audit trail as a PDF, base64-encoded.

Get Embedded Signing Link

document-get-embedded-sign-link

Mint an embeddable signing link for one signer on a document.

List Documents

document-list

List the account's documents, optionally filtered by status or a search key.

Get Document

document-properties

Retrieve a document's status, signers and history.

Send Reminder

document-remind

Send a reminder email to a document's pending signers.

Revoke Document

document-revoke

Cancel a document that has not yet completed.

Send Document

document-send

Send one or more files (by URL) out for signature.

Get API Credit Balance

plan-api-credits

Read the account's purchased API-credit balance.

List Templates

template-list

List the account's templates.

Get Template

template-properties

Retrieve a template's roles, files and settings.

Send Using Template

template-send

Create and send a document from a template, filling its roles with real signers.

A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the workflow spec, carrying BoldSign's real ids.

+7 more actions available

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account, so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for BoldSign, then fill in the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but nothing in it is specific to BoldSign. The Workflow tab is where this app's real ids are.

Install
npm install @w6w/sdk
yarn add @w6w/sdk
pnpm add @w6w/sdk
deno add npm:@w6w/sdk
Code
import { W6wClient, isActionRun } from "@w6w/sdk";

// Reads W6W_BASE_URL and W6W_TOKEN from the environment when omitted.
const client = new W6wClient();

const envelope = await client.run({
  urn: "conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID",
  action: "document-download",
  payload: {
    documentId: "<value>",
    // format: "<value>",
  },
});

if (isActionRun(envelope)) console.log(envelope.value);
Install the CLI
npm install -g @w6w/cli
CLI
w6w run conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID --action document-download --payload '{"documentId":"<value>"}'

Give an AI agent BoldSign — without giving it BoldSign's credentials. One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.

One tool call
{
  "name": "w6w_invoke",
  "arguments": {
    "ref": "app:io.w6w.boldsign#document-download",
    "input": {
      "documentId": "<documentId>"
    }
  }
}

Every tool names its target with a single ref. The app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the host resolves which of the caller's BoldSign connections to sign with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.

What the agent gets

Credentials it can't read

The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.

A tool surface scoped to the caller

Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.

A durable workflow in one call

Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.

Health-aware discovery

BoldSign's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.

The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. BoldSign itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).

Request MCP access

Health checks

BoldSign declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
