An Observer is someone who needs to follow a signing request without signing it. Think assistants, controllers, or legal reviewers.

Now you can add or remove observers at any time, before or after the request goes out. They get an email whenever they're added or removed, so they always know where they stand.

How does it work now?

While managing a signature request, you can add an Observer from the overflow menu on the top right.

You can now remove Observers even after the signature request has been sent. You can do that from the Observer section on the right sidebar. Removing them revokes access immediately.

Remove Yourself as Observer

Observers are now also allowed to remove themselves from signature requests to reduce inbox clutter and unwanted notifications.

If you want to stop observing a request, simply use the option in the header menu of the signature request preview.
