Send documents for signature, track and download them, and manage templates and teams.
Dropbox Sign ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 27 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.
io.w6w.dropbox-signDropbox Sign (formerly HelloSign) sends documents out for signature and tracks them to completion, alongside the templates and teams that structure how they go out. Send a document directly or fill and send a reusable template, then follow a request’s signer-by-signer status, nudge someone who hasn’t signed, or cancel one that hasn’t finished — down to fetching the signed PDF once it’s done.
Templates make repeat sends fast: fill a template’s roles instead of re-uploading fields every time, and manage who on the account has access to which templates. Bulk send jobs and their results are readable too, for visibility into requests generated from a batch. Account and team info — remaining plan quota, team members, pending invitations — comes back for workflows that need to check headroom or account ownership before acting.
Every action explicitly declares whether it runs in Dropbox Sign’s test mode or produces a legally binding signature, since that default matters for anything that automates sending real contracts. Good for onboarding flows, contract routing and any process that needs a document signed and confirmed without a human tracking it by hand.
Three routes to the same 27 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from Dropbox Sign'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.
bulk-send-job-get Retrieve a bulk send job and the signature requests it created.
embedded-edit-url-get Get the short-lived URL that lets a user edit a template inside your own page.
embedded-sign-url-get Get the short-lived URL that lets one signer sign inside your own page.
report-create Queue a usage report. Dropbox Sign emails it to the account — nothing is returned.
signature-request-cancel Stop an incomplete signature request. Signers can no longer sign it.
signature-request-files-get Get a temporary download link, or a data URI, for the signed document.
signature-request-get Retrieve one signature request and each signer's status.
signature-request-list List signature requests, optionally filtered by Dropbox Sign's search syntax.
signature-request-release-hold Send a signature request that was created on hold.
signature-request-remove Permanently remove this account's access to a COMPLETED signature request and its files.
signature-request-send Email a document to one or more signers for signature.
signature-request-send-with-template Fill a saved template's roles and fields and send it for signature.
signature-request-update Correct one signer's email address or name, or move the expiry.
template-files-get Get a temporary download link, or a data URI, for a template's documents.
unclaimed-draft-create Create a claimable draft and return the one-time URL that claims it.
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 Dropbox Sign's real ids.

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 Dropbox Sign, 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 Dropbox Sign. The Workflow tab is where this app's
real ids are.

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.dropbox-sign#bulk-send-job-get",
"input": {
"bulkSendJobId": "<bulkSendJobId>"
}
}
}
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 Dropbox Sign connections to sign
with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.
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.
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.
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.
Dropbox Sign'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. Dropbox Sign itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).
Dropbox Sign declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
The signing components on Dropbox Sign's own status page — not Dropbox's, and not the component group named API, which covers outbound callbacks. Unauthenticated and unsigned.
Signature requests, documents and templates left on the plan, read from GET /account, plus the hourly request allowance from the same response's headers.
