For Agents
Automate PandaDoc document creation, sending, signing, and tracking — from templates, PDFs, or dynamic content with placeholders, webhooks, and form data extraction.
Use for: Create a PandaDoc document from a template, Send a document for signature, Upload a PDF and send it for signing, Check the status of a document
Not supported: Does not provide e-signature verification infrastructure, legal compliance auditing, or identity verification services — use for document creation, sending, tracking, and data extraction only. E-signature legality and compliance are the responsibility of the customer's use case and jurisdiction.
PandaDoc API enables document automation for proposals, quotes, contracts, and e-signature workflows. The API covers document creation from templates or PDF uploads, dynamic content placeholders, recipient configuration, sending for signature, tracking status changes, webhook subscriptions, form field data extraction, content library management, template CRUD, folder organization, analytics, and user administration. Authentication uses API keys (API-Key prefix) or OAuth 2.0 for user-delegated access. The API supports high-volume document generation with rate limits scaled by plan tier.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the PandaDoc API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the PandaDoc API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with PandaDoc API.
Create documents from templates with dynamic content placeholders and variable substitution
Upload and send local PDFs for signature with recipient roles and field positioning
Configure recipients with signing order, authentication, and role-based field access
Send documents for signature with email customization and expiration dates
Track document status changes (draft, sent, viewed, completed, voided) via webhooks
Extract form field values and signature data from completed documents
Manage content library items, templates, and folder organization
Download completed documents as PDFs with or without certificate of completion
Administer workspaces, users, and role-based access control
Use Cases
Patterns agents use PandaDoc API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Generate and Send Contracts from CRM Data
Automate contract generation by pulling data from a CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot and creating PandaDoc documents from templates. POST /documents with template_uuid and tokens (placeholders like {Client.Name}, {Deal.Value}) generates a document, then POST /documents/{id}/send delivers it to recipients for signature. This eliminates manual copy-paste and ensures contract accuracy.
POST /documents with template_uuid and tokens object mapping placeholders to CRM values, then POST /documents/{id}/send with recipients and subject.
Upload and Send Local PDFs for Signature
Upload a PDF contract or agreement that does not originate from a PandaDoc template and send it for signature. POST /documents with a multipart file upload and recipient configuration allows dynamic PDF signing workflows. This supports scenarios where legal teams provide pre-formatted PDFs that need e-signature without template redesign.
POST /documents with file upload and recipients, then POST /documents/{id}/send to deliver for signature.
Real-Time Document Status Tracking via Webhooks
Subscribe to PandaDoc webhooks to receive real-time notifications when documents are viewed, completed, voided, or declined. POST /webhooks/subscriptions with event types (document_state_changed) and a callback URL enables integrations that trigger downstream workflows like updating CRM deal stages, notifying sales reps in Slack, or releasing product access when a contract is signed.
POST /webhooks/subscriptions with event types ['document_state_changed'] and callback URL to receive status updates.
Extract Form Field Data from Completed Documents
After a document is completed, extract form field values and signature data for downstream processing like populating databases, generating invoices, or triggering fulfillment. GET /documents/{id}/fields returns all field names and values, including text inputs, checkboxes, dropdowns, and signature timestamps. This supports automated order processing and data capture workflows.
GET /documents/{id}/fields after document status is 'document.completed' to extract field names and values.
AI Agent for Document Workflow Automation
Let an AI agent handle document lifecycle tasks like creating contracts from customer data, sending for signature, tracking status, notifying stakeholders, and extracting signed data. Through Jentic, the agent searches by intent (e.g., 'create pandadoc document from template'), loads the schema, and executes with the API key injected securely, enabling conversational document automation.
Use Jentic search 'create pandadoc document from template' to find POST /documents, load schema, execute with template_uuid and tokens.
