Adobe Sign → DocuSign Migrator
A Python toolkit + web UI for migrating library templates from Adobe Sign (Acrobat Sign) to DocuSign. It downloads templates via the Adobe Sign API, converts them to DocuSign format, and uploads them via the DocuSign API — either from the command line or through a browser-based UI.
What it does
- Authenticates with Adobe Sign via OAuth (one-time browser flow, tokens saved to
.env) - Downloads templates — PDF, metadata, and form field definitions
- Converts each template to a DocuSign
envelopeTemplateJSON, mapping all field types, coordinates, recipient roles, and conditional field logic - Authenticates with DocuSign via OAuth Authorization Code Grant (one-time browser login, then refresh-token based)
- Uploads the converted template to DocuSign via the REST API
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+
- An Adobe Sign OAuth app (EU2 shard) with scopes:
library_read:self library_write:self user_read:self - A DocuSign developer account with an OAuth app client ID and client secret
Setup
1. Install Python dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Create a .env file in the project root (never commit this):
cp .env-sample .env
Then fill in your credentials. See .env-sample for the full list of
variables with descriptions. Use account-d.docusign.com and
https://demo.docusign.net/restapi for sandbox; for production replace with
account.docusign.com and your account's base URL (e.g. https://na3.docusign.net/restapi).
3. Authenticate with Adobe Sign (one-time):
python3 src/adobe_auth.py
Opens a browser. After authorizing, paste the redirect URL back into the terminal.
Tokens are saved to .env and auto-refreshed on subsequent runs.
4. Authorize DocuSign (CLI, one-time per machine/user):
python3 src/docusign_auth.py --authorize
Opens a browser for the DocuSign OAuth screen. After approving, paste the
redirect URL back into the terminal. The app stores both access and refresh
tokens in .env, and later API calls refresh access tokens automatically.
Running a migration
List available templates in Adobe Sign:
python3 src/download_templates.py list
Download templates:
python3 src/download_templates.py download # all templates
python3 src/download_templates.py download "Template Name" # one specific template
Downloads to downloads/<template-name>__<id>/ — one folder per template containing
metadata.json, form_fields.json, documents.json, and the PDF.
Convert a downloaded template to DocuSign format:
python3 src/compose_docusign_template.py
Writes DocuSign template JSONs to migration-output/<template-name>/docusign-template.json.
Upload to DocuSign (upsert by default):
python3 src/upload_docusign_template.py --file migration-output/<name>/docusign-template.json
If a DocuSign template with the same name already exists, the most recently modified one is updated (PUT). To always create a new template instead:
python3 src/upload_docusign_template.py --file <path> --force-create
Or run the full pipeline end-to-end:
python3 src/migrate_template.py --list # show available templates
python3 src/migrate_template.py --template "Template Name" # download → convert → upload
python3 src/migrate_template.py --template "Template Name" --skip-upload # convert only
If multiple templates share the same name, the most recently modified one is used.
Web UI
The web UI is an enterprise-grade migration console with a Docusign-branded left-nav shell, multi-customer project context, and a full migration workflow.
Additional .env keys required for the web UI:
SESSION_SECRET_KEY=<any random string>
SESSION_STORE_DIR=/absolute/path/for/browser-session-files
DOCUSIGN_CLIENT_SECRET=<your DocuSign app client secret>
DOCUSIGN_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:8000/api/auth/docusign/callback
ADOBE_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:8000/api/auth/adobe/callback
Start the server:
uvicorn web.app:app --reload --port 8000
Then open http://localhost:8000 in your browser.
Multi-user testing
The web UI now supports concurrent testers on one shared deployment:
- each browser gets its own server-side session file
- DocuSign web OAuth is isolated per tester session
- migration history and batch-job polling are scoped to that tester session
- Adobe Sign can still be connected from shared
.envcredentials if you use the top-bar Adobe connect flow
Important behavior:
- the CLI still stores DocuSign tokens in
.env - the web UI does not reuse
.envDocuSign refresh tokens for all users anymore - each tester who needs DocuSign upload/verification should connect DocuSign in their own browser session
- if a DocuSign user belongs to multiple accounts, the web UI fetches the full account list from
/oauth/userinfo, sorts it alphabetically, and requires the user to choose an account for the session - browser-session files live under
.session-store/by default and can be deleted to force reconnects

Workflow
- Create a project — the switcher modal opens on first run; name it after the customer.
- Connect platforms — click the Adobe Sign and Docusign chips in the top bar.
- For group testing, each tester should connect Docusign in their own browser.
- If your DocuSign login belongs to multiple accounts, the app will prompt you to choose one account for this session.
- Settings now shows the browser session ID, auth mode, and selected DocuSign account for easier troubleshooting.
- Review templates — the Templates view shows readiness badges:
- Ready (green) — no issues, safe to migrate
- Caveats (amber) — warnings exist; migration will proceed but check Issues view
- Blocked (red) — blockers found; migration will fail until resolved
- Migrated (cobalt) — successfully migrated and up to date
- Needs Update (amber) — Adobe template modified after last migration
- Resolve issues — check Issues & Warnings before migrating blocked templates.
- Migrate — select templates, click Migrate Selected, configure options (dry run, overwrite, target folder), monitor progress. Failed rows show the error inline; a summary hint appears if any templates fail.
- Review field issues — successfully migrated templates may show an amber partial badge if features were dropped during migration (e.g. cross-recipient conditionals, unsupported operators). Expand any result row to see grouped field-issue details.
- Verify — on the Verification screen, send test envelopes to confirm templates work end-to-end. Polling checks every 30 seconds and times out after 5 minutes; production deployments should use Docusign Connect (webhooks) instead.
- Audit — History & Audit logs every migration with checksums and export. Rows with field issues show the same grouped breakdown on expand.
Project / customer context
The project switcher (nav footer) stores per-customer migration context in localStorage.
Create one project per customer to keep history and settings separate.

Migration API options
POST /api/migrate accepts extended options (blueprint-aligned):
{
"source_template_ids": ["tpl_001", "tpl_002"],
"target_folder": "Migrated Templates",
"options": {
"dry_run": false,
"overwrite_if_exists": false,
"include_documents": true
}
}
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
dry_run |
false |
Validate and compose without creating DocuSign templates |
overwrite_if_exists |
false |
If false, skip templates that already exist in DocuSign |
include_documents |
true |
Embed PDFs in the DocuSign template |
Batch migration (POST /api/migrate/batch) runs the same pipeline for multiple templates as a background job:
# Start batch
curl -X POST /api/migrate/batch -d '{"source_template_ids": ["id1", "id2"]}'
# → {"job_id": "abc-123", "status": "queued"}
# Poll status
curl /api/migrate/batch/abc-123
# → {"status": "running", "progress": {"completed": 1, "total": 2}, ...}
Normalized intermediate schema
The migration pipeline uses a platform-agnostic NormalizedTemplate model as a bridge between Adobe Sign and DocuSign. This decouples extraction from composition and enables the validation layer.
See src/models/normalized_template.py and src/services/mapping_service.py.
Validation
Each template is validated before migration:
- Blockers (halt migration): no recipients, no documents
- Warnings (logged but continue): no signature fields, unassigned fields, unsupported features
Unsupported features flagged for manual review: conditional HIDE actions, JavaScript validators, calculated fields, webhook associations, niche authentication methods.
Field issues (partial migration)
Beyond blockers and warnings, the compose step emits structured field issues when a field migrates successfully but something was silently dropped or approximated. Each issue has a machine-readable code:
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
CROSS_RECIPIENT_CONDITIONAL |
Show/hide condition references a field on a different recipient — DocuSign does not support cross-recipient conditional logic |
UNSUPPORTED_OPERATOR |
Condition uses NOT_EQUALS / GT / LT etc. — only EQUALS is supported |
HIDE_ACTION |
Adobe HIDE condition has no DocuSign equivalent — field will always be visible |
MULTI_PREDICATE |
AND/OR multi-condition logic reduced to first EQUALS predicate only |
INVALID_PARENT_TAB |
Conditional parent references a non-existent tab or a forbidden tab type (signature/auto-fill tabs cannot be parents) |
FIELD_TYPE_SKIPPED |
INLINE_IMAGE or PARTICIPATION_STAMP — no DocuSign equivalent, field dropped |
PARTIAL_FIELD_TYPE |
FILE_CHOOSER → signerAttachmentTabs, or STAMP → stampTabs — field migrated but behaviour differs |
Templates with field issues are marked with a partial badge in the UI. Field issues are stored in field_issues[] on every migration result record and displayed grouped by code in all result views.
Security
src/utils/log_sanitizer.py— installSanitizingFilterto redact tokens, keys, and base64 PDF content from all log output- PDF checksums (SHA-256) are computed and stored with each migration record
- Tokens are never written to logs; see
src/utils/log_sanitizer.py
