How do I delete documents in Papersign?

This article is for the eSignature product, Papersign. For Paperform, see deleting forms or deleting submissions.

Documents with any status other than "Completed" or "Archived" can be deleted permanently. This includes both draft documents and sent documents that have not yet been signed by all parties.

From the dashboard, select the hamburger menu to the right of the document, then click "Delete Document."

Gotchas

Completed documents can be archived instead of deleted. This will remove them from your main dashboard and spaces while still allowing them to be viewed and downloaded by all participants. Archived documents can be restored at any time.

Deleting a document with a status of "In Progress" automatically cancels the pending signature request.
