Signature

Overview

The Signature component collects the signature of an individual. Users can sign with a mouse, trackpad, or by touch on a touch-enabled device such as a tablet or smartphone.

This component only captures a signature. To save the signature, use the Create File Action to save the signature to a File and relate it to a record.

Required

If set to true, the signature is required before the Flow can advance to the next step.

This validation implements an intelligent check to ensure an actual signature is captured. For example, a single dot does not count as a signature.

TypeDefault Value
Booleanfalse

Signature Data

This input is optional but is highly recommended. This input takes a simple Text variable and ensures the signature is not cleared when navigating forwards and backward through a flow.

When this variable is not used, the signature can be lost when navigating backward in a Flow. For some use cases this can be the desired behavior.

We recommend creating a Text variable called SignatureData and setting it to this input.
