How BeforeQuery uses DocuSign

What the agent does with your DocuSign connection

  • 01

    Read contracts, templates, and signature status from DocuSign into the Context Graph.

  • 02

    Draft NDAs, DPAs, and standard-form contracts grounded in your approved templates + counterparty context.

  • 03

    Trigger playbooks on DocuSign events — new contract request, signature completed, renewal window opened.

  • 04

    Answer contract-Q&A grounded in the specific document ("what's the termination notice on the Acme MSA?").

Use cases

What teams actually do with the DocuSign integration

NDA + MSA auto-drafting

New NDA request → BeforeQuery pulls your approved DocuSign template, populates counterparty details from CRM, drafts, routes to legal for a sanity check, sends via DocuSign for signature. Contract-turnaround: days to hours.

Contract-Q&A grounded in the exact clause

AE asks "what's the termination notice on our Acme MSA?" → BeforeQuery finds the contract in DocuSign, extracts the specific clause, answers with the paragraph. Answer + source in one message.

Renewal-window nudges

DocuSign data feeds a renewal calendar; 90 days before each renewal, BeforeQuery nudges the AE + CS + legal owner with a renewal-prep packet grounded in the specific contract terms.

Answer questions grounded in DocuSign

Employees and customers ask DocuSign-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact DocuSign record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Legal / Contracts / eSign to check" round-trips.

DocuSign — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to DocuSign.

Yes on Enterprise. BeforeQuery reads the counterparty draft, compares against your negotiation playbook, and drafts markup. Legal reviews and accepts / edits the redline before it goes out.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where DocuSign supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your DocuSign data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every DocuSign integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific DocuSign objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch DocuSign for real.
