Frequently asked questions

Ceven never stores your signed documents on its own servers. When a workflow triggers a download, the agent creates a temporary secure stream from Dropbox Sign to your designated destination, such as Google Drive or a secure server. All data in transit is encrypted using industry standard protocols. Once the file is successfully transferred and confirmed, the temporary stream is closed. You maintain full control over the original document within the Dropbox Sign dashboard, and Ceven only accesses the files necessary to complete the specific workflow step you defined.
Yes. Ceven uses the signature order feature within Dropbox Sign to ensure documents flow logically. When configuring the send action, you can specify the sequence of signers. The agent will track the progress and only trigger the next notification once the previous party has completed their signature. If a signer drops out or the document is declined, Ceven can be programmed to alert the account owner immediately via Slack or email so the request can be corrected and resent without delaying the entire project.
Ceven monitors the status of every request. If a signer selects the decline option, the agent receives a webhook event. Depending on how you build your workflow, Ceven can automatically move the deal back to a negotiation stage in your CRM, notify the account manager, or trigger a task for a human to call the client and resolve the issue. This prevents deals from stalling in a declined state without anyone noticing for several days.
Ceven is bound by the API rate limits and plan quotas set by Dropbox Sign. For example, if you are on a standard plan, you may encounter a limit on the number of signature requests you can send per month. If the agent hits a rate limit, it will automatically queue the remaining requests and retry them using an exponential backoff strategy. We recommend monitoring your Dropbox Sign account usage to ensure your plan tier supports the volume of automation you are running through Ceven.
Yes. Ceven can interact with template fields to inject dynamic data. When you send a request, the agent maps data from your source system, like a customer name or a contract price, directly into the pre defined fields of the Dropbox Sign template. This ensures that every document is personalized and accurate without requiring a human to manually type the details into the signature platform every time a new contract is issued.
Ceven leverages the native audit trails provided by Dropbox Sign. Every document signed through the integration includes a comprehensive audit log that tracks the IP address, email, and timestamp of every action taken. When Ceven archives a signed document, it can also download the accompanying audit report and store it alongside the PDF. This provides a complete chain of custody that is legally admissible and satisfies most compliance requirements for electronic signatures.
Yes. You can build a workflow that checks the status of all pending Dropbox Sign requests every twenty four hours. If the agent finds a document that has been viewed but not signed, it can trigger a reminder. You can customize the frequency and the messaging of these reminders based on the importance of the document or the type of client, ensuring that you stay top of mind without appearing overly aggressive in your follow up process.
Ceven supports witness roles as defined in your Dropbox Sign templates. When sending a request, the agent assigns the witness email to the correct role in the document. The workflow will track the witness signature as a separate requirement. The document will not be marked as completed until both the primary signer and the witness have signed, and Ceven will only trigger the final archival workflow once all required roles have been fulfilled.
