Docusign Custom Tabs API

The CustomTabs resource provides methods that allow you create and manage custom tabs based on the existing DocuSign tabs. You can create a tab with pre-defined properties, such as a text tab with a certain font type and validation pattern. Users can access the custom tabs when sending documents through the DocuSign web application. Custom tabs can be created based on the approve, checkbox, company, date, date signed, decline, email, email address, envelope ID, first name, formula, full name, initial here, last name, list, note, number, radio, sign here, signer attachment, SSN, text, title, and zip tabs.
