Configuration Walkthrough

If you or your organization already use DocuSign or has a DocuSign account, inform the Kno2 team in advance. Kno2 DocuSign accounts may be subject to requirements of your existing DocuSign account

Step 1: Kno2-issued DocuSign account activation and configuration

Activate your new Kno2-issued DocuSign account

  1. Log out of any existing DocuSign accounts in your default browser.

  2. Open the automated email received from the Kno2-issued DocuSign account.

  3. Click Activate.

  4. Create a password and security questions following the instructions.

  5. Click LOG IN.

  6. Once logged in, you will be taken to the DocuSign homepage.

  7. Your DocuSign account is now activated with a username and password for managing the Kno2-issued DocuSign account.

This login is for the Kno2 administrator included in the order. They may add additional users or administrators to the DocuSign account if desired.

Configure your new Kno2-issued DocuSign account

  1. Create a new DocuSign user within the Kno2-issued DocuSign account.

  2. Navigate to the DocuSign homepage (https://apps.Docusign.com/send/home).

  3. Click Settings at the top of the page.

  4. Click Users on the left side of the page.

  5. Click Add User.

  6. Follow the Add User instructions on the page.

    1. Enter Email Address

      1. Recommended: Use the email address created in Prerequisites item 5.

      2. The username and email address are used for display purposes on outgoing signature requests and should reflect desired external branding.

      3. If you intend to use the same email address across multiple DocuSign accounts, the username must be the same across all accounts.

      4. If you want a different username to appear, DocuSign requires a unique email address.

    2. Enter Profile Information

      1. Only the full name is required; Kno2 recommends it reflects the organization's external branding, such as the organization's name, as this is what shows up on the email that is sent out.

    3. Set Security Settings

      1. Leave Access Code blank.

    4. Permission Profile and Groups

      1. Select DS Sender from the Permission Profile dropdown

    5. Once added, an activation email will be sent to the user.

  7. Click the Activate button in the DocuSign activation email received.

  8. Set a password for the new user account.

This username and password will be used in the next step to configure the Kno2fy tenant to be used for Kno2 Send and eSign.

Step 2: Kno2fy tenant configuration for Kno2 Send and eSign

Add an Address

  1. Login to your Kno2fy tenant as an administrator (https://app.kno2fy.com/).

  2. Click the Settings gear in the top right corner.

  3. Click Addresses under Document Sources.

  4. Click the + button in the top right corner.

  5. Complete the Create Address form.

  6. Address Type

    1. Select Organization.

  7. Nickname

    1. This is a name to remind you of the use of the address, e.g., "Signed DocuSign Documents".

  8. Address

    1. This is the prefix of the address that will be used to receive the signed and completed documents from Kno2 Send and eSign.

      1. Example Address: DocuSign = Docusign@abc-clinic.direct.kno2fy.com.

  9. Domain

    1. This will automatically populate and is read only.

  10. Send Permission(s)

    1. Leave blank.

    2. This address will only be used for receiving signed documents programmatically. No users need to be added to the send permissions.

  11. Click Save Changes to save the address.

We do not recommend giving send permissions to any users as this is strictly for receiving signed documents through Kno2 Send and eSign.
