DocuSign Retrieve Quick Start Guide 2About RetrieveRetrieve is a DocuSign product that allows you to download envelope information from DocuSign bycreating Retrieve settings. Retrieve settings are \"bookmarks\" where you save search information.When creating Retrieve settings, you can select the date range and the envelope statuses to search,along with how and where to save the search results. You can save Retrieve settings for later use anduse them to build a command line for scheduled tasks.You can configure the Retrieve output to meet your needs. You can have the output saved as a ZIP file,as separate PDF files or as a single PDF file. You can also specify where to save the output files.Many customers save files to some convenient location, and then have their back end system pick upthe files from that location on a regular schedule. Additionally, if you want the data (such as envelopeID, date signed, custom information you added to the documents, etc.), then you can have Retrievecreate and save an Index file (a CSV file) with this data.For example, you can have a schedule set to run Retrieve once per day to retrieve all of the completed,signed PDFs, for any envelope completed in the last 24 hours, and create an Index file with the valuesfor the 20 custom fields you placed in those documents.Installing DocuSign RetrieveThis topic describes how to install DocuSign Retrieve, including system requirements and otherprerequisites.System RequirementsDocuSign Retrieve supports the following Windows server, desktop, or laptop systems.
