How APIs in this Category Work Together#
The eSign Stamping APIs form a cohesive workflow for managing the complete lifecycle of electronic stamp papers. These APIs are designed to work together to provide a seamless experience from creation to utilization of stamps in digital document signing processes.Key Integration Patterns:Register Stamp + List Stamps: Register new stamps and then verify their successful creation by retrieving the updated stamp inventory
List Stamps + Delete Stamp: Review the current stamp inventory to identify obsolete or expired stamps, then remove them to maintain an organized collection
Register Stamp + Delete Stamp: Replace outdated stamps by first registering new ones and then removing the old versions once the transition is complete
eSign Document Management: Works alongside stamping to attach the appropriate stamps to documents requiring signature
Digital Signature: Uses the registered stamps to apply legally valid signatures with proper stamp duty
Document Verification: Validates that documents have been properly stamped according to regulatory requirements
Compliance Reporting: Tracks stamp usage for audit and regulatory compliance purposes
