The BoldSign integration enables electronic document signing within Nextal. Once active, offer letters and other HR documents can be sent to candidates or employees for legally binding e-signature — all from the candidate profile or the documents workflow — without needing a separate BoldSign login.

What it does

  • Enables the e-signature workflow on documents in Nextal, routing them to BoldSign for signing.
  • Associates your BoldSign brand profile with the signing experience so recipients see your organization’s name and logo.
  • Optionally sends signature requests on behalf of a specific email address within your BoldSign account.

Prerequisites

  • A BoldSign account with API access.
  • Your BoldSign Brand ID — found in the BoldSign administration panel under Branding. This is required.
  • Optionally, an On Behalf Of email address — the address that will appear as the sender in signature request emails sent to signers.

How to activate

  1. Go to Administration → Integrations and find the BoldSign card.
  2. Click Edit to open the configuration panel.
  3. Check Enable BoldSign Integration.
  4. Enter your Brand ID (required).
  5. Optionally, enter an On Behalf Of email address.
  6. Click Save.

Once saved, the e-signature option becomes available on relevant documents in the platform.

Brand IDYour BoldSign Brand ID. Required — signing requests cannot be sent without it.
On Behalf OfAn email address in your BoldSign account. When set, signature request emails appear to come from this address rather than the default sender.

Tips

  • Create a dedicated brand in BoldSign before activating. A brand defines the logo, email template, and redirect pages signers see. Setting this up in BoldSign first ensures a polished experience from day one.
  • The Brand ID is not your BoldSign account email. Find it in the BoldSign console under your brand’s settings — it is typically a UUID or alphanumeric string.
  • “On Behalf Of” is useful when multiple people send documents. Setting this to a shared inbox (e.g. hr@yourcompany.com) ensures signing requests have a consistent reply-to address.
  • Disabling the integration does not cancel in-progress signing requests. Documents already sent to BoldSign will complete their signing workflow regardless of whether the integration is toggled off in Nextal.
