Most Common Issues

I can't sign in

  • Verify you're using the email address that was invited
  • Use Forgot Password? on the sign-in page to reset your password
  • If MFA codes aren't working, check your device's time is set to automatic — time drift is the most common cause

A signature request is stuck

  • Check the Signature Tracking page for the request's real status

A file won't preview

Frequently Asked Questions

Do my clients need to pay for an account?

No. Guests are free — they only need to accept the invitation and create a password.

Can a guest see my other clients or portals?

No. Guests only see the specific portals they've been invited to. They never see other guests, other portals, or your organization settings.

What happens when I archive a portal?

The portal is hidden from default views but nothing is deleted — all files and history are retained, and you can restore it at any time. See Creating Portals.

Is there a limit on file storage or e-signatures?

E-signatures are unlimited on all plans. Portal limits vary by tier — see the Feature Comparison.

Can I automate things or integrate with other tools?

Yes, on the Enterprise plan. Connect via Zapier, or use the REST API and webhooks directly. Start with the Developer Quickstart and API & Webhook Settings.

How do I change my organization's branding?

Admins can upload a logo, set a brand color, claim a custom subdomain, and white-label the guest experience on Large Firm and Enterprise plans. See Branding.
