You can copy and share a direct signing link with a recipient so they can complete their e-signature without needing to locate the original email. This is especially helpful if a signer cannot find their email, needs assistance, or is signing in person at your office.
Where to Access the Signing Link
You can access your document in Aptly Sign from either:
- The Aptly Sign view on a board (if you’ve added it), or
- The main Aptly Sign dashboard
From there:
- Locate the document in the document table.
- Click on the document name to open it.
How to Copy the Signing Link
Once inside the document:
- Look to the upper right corner.
- Click the link icon (Share Link).
- You will see individual signing links for each recipient.
Important
Each signer has their own unique link.
Be sure to copy and share the correct link with the correct recipient.
Available Link Options
When viewing the signing links, you can:
- Copy the link to share directly with the signer
- Resend the invitation email
- Renew the link (this generates a new link and invalidates the previous one for security purposes)
When to Use a Direct Signing Link
Sharing a direct signing link is useful when:
- A signer cannot find their email
- The original email expired or needs to be resent
- You are assisting someone in person
- A signer is completing the document in your office
For example, you can copy the link and have the signer complete the document on an office computer or iPad. This is especially helpful for individuals who may not have reliable access to a computer or internet at home.
Using the direct signing link feature ensures your documents can still be completed smoothly, even if email access becomes a barrier.
