✍️ Automate Document Signatures with SignNow (End-to-End Contract Automation)

Close Contracts on Autopilot — From Onboarding to Signed PDF

This workflow turns contract process into a fully automated, production-ready signing pipeline.

No manual document edits.
No chasing signatures.
No broken onboarding flows.

From the moment a user submits their details, the system generates, sends, tracks, and delivers a legally signed contract automatically.


Who This Workflow Is Built For

Agencies onboarding new clients at scale
Training providers & instructors issuing agreements
HR teams handling offers & contractor contracts
Consultants & service providers with repeatable contracts
✅ Any business tired of manual contract handling

If you send the same type of contract again and again, this is built for you.


What This Workflow Does (Business & Technical View)

  1. User fills in your n8n form
  2. Dynamic contract generation
    • Your contract template auto-filled with user form details.
    • Contract sent to user by email
  3. Digital signature via SignNow
  4. Post-signature automation
    • The final signed PDF is emailed to the signer.
    • Records are updated in Google Sheets for audit & tracking.

Everything happens without human intervention.


Why This Template Is Valuable

  • Eliminates manual contract preparation
  • Zero follow-up required for signatures
  • Consistent, compliant documents every time
  • Scales infinitely with no added admin workload
  • Audit-friendly (all signers logged and stored)

This workflow replaces hours of admin work with a single automation.


Why Buy This Instead of Building It Yourself

  • Save 20–30+ hours of SignNow API learning and debugging
  • Avoid common pitfalls:
    • Missing SignNow tags
    • Broken callbacks
    • Incorrect PDF field extraction
  • Get a battle-tested flow already wired across:
    • Google Docs
    • Google Drive
    • Google Sheets
    • SignNow
    • Email delivery

This is not a toy example — it’s a real onboarding system used in production.


Technical Requirements

  • n8n (self-hosted or cloud)
  • SignNow account with API access
  • Google Docs / Drive / Sheets access
  • Email sender (Gmail, Outlook, or SMTP)
  • A public n8n URL for SignNow webhook callbacks

⚠️ Your Google Docs template must include valid SignNow field tags to enable auto-invites and signature capture.


Customization Options

  • Replace the contract template with any agreement type
  • Add more fields to onboarding forms
  • Extend to CRM, Slack, or internal approval flows
  • Customize branding and email messaging

Bottom Line 💡

If contracts are part of your business, this workflow pays for itself immediately.

One form submission → one signed contract → zero manual steps.

This is how modern businesses handle agreements at scale.
