Forms

Unpublish a form

POST/forms/{id}/actions/unpublish

Moves a published form back to draft and returns it. Unpublishing a draft returns it unchanged and emits no event. The DocuSign check does not run. Emits form.unpublished and sends no email. POST /forms/{id}/actions/publish undoes it.

Path parameters

  • idstring (uuid)Required#

    The form's id, a uuid. An unknown id, or a hidden form, returns 404.

Query parameters

  • dry_runboolean#

    Validate and run the call without committing it, returning what the real call would return with meta.dry_run set.

Headers

  • Idempotency-Keystring#

    Makes a retry safe. Send a new UUID for each new request and reuse it only to retry that request; the first response is replayed for 24 hours.
