Contractbook

Contractbook is a contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform that turns static contracts into structured, automatable data. Its Public API v3 (base https://api.contractbook.com/v3, Bearer API-key auth) lets teams generate pre-filled contract drafts from any data source, send documents for electronic signature, manage templates, organize documents into spaces, run automations, upload attachments, and receive webhook notifications on document life-cycle events. Contractbook covers the full contract lifecycle - drafting, negotiation, signing, storage, and post-signature management - for legal, sales, HR, and procurement teams.

Contractbook publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Attachments API, Automations API, Document sharing API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Contract Management, CLM, Contract Lifecycle, Legal, and E-Signature.

Contractbook’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.

  description: Contractbook's document life-cycle notification (webhook) mechanism. When a document is created, updated, or
    signed, Contractbook sends an HTTP request to a client-configured callback URL, letting integrations react to contract
    state changes instead of polling. Webhook payloads are unauthenticated by default; an access_token query parameter can
    be added to the callback URL, and recipients are advised to confirm state via an authenticated GET /documents/{id} call.
    Webhook subscriptions are configured in Contractbook rather than through documented CRUD endpoints in the Public API v3
    OpenAPI, so this API is honestly modeled from the documented notification behavior.
