Docusign SigningGroups API is one of 134 APIs that [Docusign](https://apis.io/providers/docusign/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification and an AsyncAPI event-driven specification. This API exposes 1 JSON Schema definition. Tagged areas include SigningGroups. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an AsyncAPI specification, a JSON-LD context, a getting-started guide, rate-limit docs, and 1 JSON Schema.

The SigningGroups resource provides methods that allow you manage signing groups. Signing Groups allow you to create a group of people to which an envelope is sent. Any member of that group can open an envelope and sign the documents in the envelope with their own signature, even though a signature field was not directly assigned to them. When the Signing Group option is used, group members that open and sign the envelope are tracked in the envelope history and certificate. When one group member opens the envelope, it is temporarily locked and if other members try to open the envelope they will see a message saying the envelope is currently opened. If the group member exits the envelope without finishing the lock expires, allowing other group members to open and complete the envelope. When the envelope is complete, all members of the group will receive a completed notification and can access the completed envelope. The envelope history and Certificate of Completion will show that the envelope was sent to a signing group and record which members viewed and signed the envelope. An account can have a maximum of 50 signing groups. Each signing group can have a maximum of 50 group members. The Signing Groups feature is only supported in certain DocuSign Enterprise and System Automated Premium plans. Your account might not support this option. To access this functionality, contact your Account Manager or DocuSign Support (support@docusign.com) for assistance.
