QES Onboarding API - Detailed Documentation

The QES Onboarding API allows you to initiate and manage qualified electronic signature (QES) workflows via a secure and customizable interface. This includes creating signing sessions, configuring webhooks for status updates, and retrieving verification results for audit or compliance checks.

API Playground:

You can try the create session link endpoint here.

Endpoints Overview

Create Session Link: Initiates a QES signature session and returns a unique user signing URL.
Configure Webhook: Registers a webhook to receive real-time updates for the onboarding session.
Get Verification: Retrieves the full verification result for a specific onboarding session.

The term “wizard” refers to the QES signing user interface that the end user completes after identification.

How to Prepare a PDF Document for QES

To ensure successful signing:

Use Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro) to open your PDF.
Go to Tools → Prepare Form.
Insert at least one Signature Field where the user will sign.
- The field must be a digital signature field (not just a form input).
Add text fields (AcroFields) that can be dynamically filled during onboarding using fillform. These fields support placeholder variables to auto-populate identity data.
Save the document and host it at a publicly accessible HTTPS URL.

Supported dynamic variables:

Variable	Description
`${identification.firstName}`	First name of the user
`${identification.lastName}`	Last name of the user
`${identification.email}`	Email address
`${identification.phoneNumber}`	Mobile number
`${identification.birthDate}`	Date of birth
`${identification.gender}`	Gender
`${identification.personalNumber}`	Personal identifier
`${identification.documentDetails.number}`	ID document number

These fields must have matching fieldIds in the fillForm array passed to the API. Onboarding will then substitute them with the correct values. For example:

"fillForm": [
  { "fieldId": "firstName", "value": "John" },
  { "fieldId": "email", "value": "john@example.com" }
],
"signForms": [{
      "fieldId": "Signature1",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    },{
      "fieldId": "Signature2",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    }]

Only AcroForm-compatible PDFs are supported. PDFs generated with third-party editors may not be recognized.

Authentication

To access the Address Verification API, authentication is required. A Bearer Token must be included in every request.

Tokens are valid for 60 minutes and must be refreshed after expiration.
Refer to the Authentication for detailed steps on obtaining a token.
Include the token in the Authorization header as follows:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

1. Create Session Link

Endpoint

POST /onboarding/createSessionLink

Required Headers

Header	Value
Content-Type	`application/json`
Authorization	`Bearer EXAMPLE_TOKEN_1234567890abcdef`

Request Body Parameters

Field	Type	Required	Description
email	string	Yes	User’s email address.
phoneNumber	string	Yes	User’s phone number (E.164 format).
docUrl	string	Yes	URL of PDF to sign. Must be accessible online over HTTPS and publicly reachable. Verify that the URL does not require authentication or headers to load.
redirectUrl	string	Yes	URL to redirect user to after signing.
signForms	array	Optional	Signature fields in the PDF (AcroForm field IDs).
fillForm	array	Optional	Pre-fillable text fields in the PDF.

Response Structure

Field	Type	Description
status	bool	Whether the request was successful.
data.url	string	URL to redirect user to the signing wizard.
data.expiresAfter	string	ISO timestamp for session expiration.
data.requestId	string	Unique identifier for the created session.

Example Request

{
  "email": "support@idcanopy.com",
  "phoneNumber": "+436508021530",
  "redirectUrl": "https://example.com/onboarding/success",
  "docUrl": "https://cdn.idcanopy.com/pdf/onb-t3.pdf",
  "signForms": [{
      "fieldId": "Signature1",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    },{
      "fieldId": "Signature2",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    }],
    "fillForm": [{
        "fieldId": "name",
        "value": "${identification.firstName}"
    },{
        "fieldId": "surname",
        "value": "${identification.lastName}"
    }]
}

Example Response

{
  "status": true,
    "data": {
        "requestId": "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000",
        "url": "https://example.com/api/v2/actorTrip/urlback?t=EXAMPLE_TOKEN",
        "expiresAfter": "2025-07-30T08:55:52.520909994Z"

QES Onboarding API - Detailed Documentation

API Playground:

You can try the create session link endpoint here.

Endpoints Overview

Create Session Link: Initiates a QES signature session and returns a unique user signing URL.
Configure Webhook: Registers a webhook to receive real-time updates for the onboarding session.
Get Verification: Retrieves the full verification result for a specific onboarding session.

Sequence Diagram

The term “wizard” refers to the QES signing user interface that the end user completes after identification.

How to Prepare a PDF Document for QES

To ensure successful signing:

Use Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro) to open your PDF.
Go to Tools → Prepare Form.
Insert at least one Signature Field where the user will sign.
- The field must be a digital signature field (not just a form input).
Add text fields (AcroFields) that can be dynamically filled during onboarding using fillform. These fields support placeholder variables to auto-populate identity data.
Save the document and host it at a publicly accessible HTTPS URL.

Supported dynamic variables:

Variable	Description
`${identification.firstName}`	First name of the user
`${identification.lastName}`	Last name of the user
`${identification.email}`	Email address
`${identification.phoneNumber}`	Mobile number
`${identification.birthDate}`	Date of birth
`${identification.gender}`	Gender
`${identification.personalNumber}`	Personal identifier
`${identification.documentDetails.number}`	ID document number

These fields must have matching fieldIds in the fillForm array passed to the API. Onboarding will then substitute them with the correct values. For example:

"fillForm": [
  { "fieldId": "firstName", "value": "John" },
  { "fieldId": "email", "value": "john@example.com" }
],
"signForms": [{
      "fieldId": "Signature1",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    },{
      "fieldId": "Signature2",
      "actorId": "userToIdentify"
    }]

Only AcroForm-compatible PDFs are supported. PDFs generated with third-party editors may not be recognized.
