Generate documents from a template in Microsoft Power Automate and sign them with E-signature

In this article, we will present you with a quick and paperless solution on how to manage your workflow - from generating documents to signing them.

With the help of the Plumsail Documents connector for Microsoft Power Automate and e-sign systems, we’ll automate the whole process. Plumsail Documents work well together with different systems. We took AdobeSign and SignNow as examples.

Why using electronic documents and signatures?

There are many advantages of electronic documents and signatures:

1. They are as legally valid as traditional written.

2. Speed — no visiting post offices, no waiting for delivery.

3. High secure protection — software security measures and settings minimize risks that sensitive information will leak, or another one will sign a document, instead of an appropriate person.

4. Saving money — no need to pay for paper, delivery service, shipping and so on.

5. Saving human resources — employees get time to work on tasks that are more important than ones connected with paperwork.

6. And, finally, using electronic workflow and e-signatures is environmentally friendly.

No doubt, that you will raise your efficiency if you switch offline routines and communication processes into online ones.
