  2. Connect your PandaDoc account when prompted. The agent will provide an OAuth link to authenticate.
  3. Ensure your PandaDoc workspace has the appropriate plan for the features you need (e.g., e-signatures, templates, webhooks).

Core Workflows

FAQ

How does PandaDoc know who I am?

You connect your PandaDoc account the first time you use the tool. This is done securely through a special link that authorizes the agent to act on your behalf.

Can I create documents with multiple people?

Yes, you can specify multiple recipients and define whether they are signers, approvers, or CC'd.

What are 'webhooks'?

Webhooks are like automatic notifications. You can set up the tool to notify a specific address (like your company's link) when a document is signed or updated.
