Box Sign Automation

Hello,

We have created a Box Sign document template and would like to send it to multiple existing users for signature in an automated way. I am not an admin and have been trying to achieve this using automation tools like Zapier and n8n.

Currently, I have a workflow that reads rows from a Google Sheet (containing user email and template ID) and attempts to send a Box Sign request when a new row is added. However, I am encountering permission-related errors (insufficient scope / 403) when calling the Box Sign API.

From my understanding, this might be due to missing Box Sign API permissions (e.g., sign_requests.write) or lack of access to Box Sign for my account.

Could you please confirm:

  1. Do I need admin approval or additional permissions to use the Box Sign API?

  2. Is it possible to automate sending Box Sign requests without admin involvement?

  3. Are there recommended approaches or tools for this use case (bulk sending via template)?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
