Add CheckBox Field - SigningHub-APIGuide

Business applications can use this service API to add a checkbox to a document in a package.

At least one user must exist in a workflow before fields (input and signature) can be added to the document in this way. The order number corresponds to the recipient in the workflow. Therefore, this number must be equal or less than the total number of users in the workflow. The below example assigns this new signature field to the first person in the workflow.

See Add Users to Workflow for more information. Note if you have a document with a template applied, or have applied one using the APIs, then the workflow will already contain users.
