Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the SignatureAPI, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fsignatureapi.com%2Fsignatureapi" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fsignatureapi.com%2Fsignatureapi" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with SignatureAPI API.
Create an envelope
List envelopes
Retrieve an envelope
Update an envelope
Delete an envelope
GET STARTED
Cancel an envelope
Patterns agents use SignatureAPI API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Developer Tools Operations
Use the SignatureAPI to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 15 endpoints covering core functionality including create an envelope, list envelopes, retrieve an envelope.
Call POST /v1/envelopes to create an envelope
Automated Deliverables Management
Automate deliverables operations by combining multiple SignatureAPI endpoints. Agents can list envelopes and then retrieve an envelope in a single workflow.
Call GET /v1/envelopes to list envelopes, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call SignatureAPI endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'create an envelope', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring SignatureAPI by hand means sending its X-API-Key header, pointing calls at https://api.signatureapi.com, and tracking envelope ids and their events yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import SignatureAPI from the API Directory, store the API key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
SignatureAPI puts the envelope id in the URL path (/v1/envelopes/{envelope_id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one envelope: it can read that envelope, its events, and its deliverables and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so destructive ones like deleting or cancelling an envelope are not included unless you add them.
Credential isolation
Your SignatureAPI key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create an envelope' or 'get envelope events', and Jentic returns the matching SignatureAPI operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Specific to using SignatureAPI API through Jentic.
What authentication does the SignatureAPI use?
The SignatureAPI uses an API key passed in the `X-API-Key` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I create an envelope with the SignatureAPI?
Yes. Use the POST /v1/envelopes endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the SignatureAPI?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I create an envelope through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'create an envelope'. Jentic returns the matching SignatureAPI operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the SignatureAPI have?
The SignatureAPI exposes 15 endpoints covering deliverables, envelopes, recipients operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SignatureAPI?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself and set the rules, you decide which SignatureAPI operations and credentials your agent may use. Since the envelope id sits in the URL path (/v1/envelopes/{envelope_id}), a rule can pin the agent to a single envelope so it only reads that envelope, its events, and its deliverables. Destructive operations such as deleting or cancelling an envelope stay off limits unless you explicitly allow them.
For Agents
Programmatically create an envelope, list envelopes. Covers 15 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to an envelope, I want to envelopes, Search for an envelope, Find all an envelope
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.
Electronic signature API for creating envelopes, managing documents, recipients, ceremonies, and deliverables. The API exposes 15 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
