Architecture & Design Overview

System Components

  • Extraction Layer: Handles authentication, API calls, and raw data retrieval from Adobe Sign. Input: .env credentials. Output: JSON metadata + field data.
  • Mapping/Transform Layer: Pure logic between raw Adobe template objects and canonical DocuSign template model. Handles all 1:1, many:1, and lossy mappings. Logging of ambiguities.
  • DocuSign Ingest Layer: Authenticates, creates/updates templates in DocuSign using mapped objects. Handles feedback, errors, and reporting.
  • Validation/QA Layer: Compares final artifacts, runs coverage and correctness checks, supports dry-run/test modes.
  • Testing/Scenario Folder: Sample templates and responses (see /sample-templates/) and mapping/transform test cases.

  1. Extract Adobe template (metadata, fields, roles, workflows)
  2. Pass to transform/mapping functions (per field/role/conditional)
  3. Generate canonical model; attempt creation in DocuSign
  4. Log result; pull DocuSign result and validate against input
  5. Drop all validated or problematic test scenarios in /sample-templates/ or a new tests/ folder for regression & future QA

Key Design Decisions & Logger

  • Focus on batch/parallelization via pipelined scripts/modules
  • Use local cache of all raw API payloads for traceability
  • Mapping module must be testable with static samples (no account needed at first)
  • Agent harness structure for project traceability, autonomous improvement
  • Decision Log (expand as project runs):
    • [2026-04-14] Start with static JSON tests and pure transforms before integrating live API. Document all lossy mappings inline in mapping functions & doc.
    • [2026-04-14] Capture all feature-mapping challenges (fields, roles) as they appear in real-world test cases and update this doc.

Extensibility

  • Designed for: new field types, more templates, transform plugins
  • Support “mapping hints” or forced overrides for ambiguous/complex field cases
