class DocuSignSample
{
    public function signatureRequestFromTemplate()
    {
        $username = "[EMAIL]";
        $password = "[PASSWORD]";
        $integrator_key = "[INTEGRATOR_KEY]";     

        // change to production before going live
        $host = "https://demo.docusign.net/restapi";

        // create configuration object and configure custom auth header
        $config = new DocuSign\eSign\Configuration();
        $config->setHost($host);
        $config->addDefaultHeader("X-DocuSign-Authentication", "{\"Username\":\"" . $username . "\",\"Password\":\"" . $password . "\",\"IntegratorKey\":\"" . $integrator_key . "\"}");

        // instantiate a new docusign api client
        $apiClient = new DocuSign\eSign\ApiClient($config);
        $accountId = null;
        
        try 
        {
            //*** STEP 1 - Login API
            $authenticationApi = new DocuSign\eSign\Api\AuthenticationApi($apiClient);
            $options = new \DocuSign\eSign\Api\AuthenticationApi\LoginOptions();
            $loginInformation = $authenticationApi->login($options);
            if(isset($loginInformation) && count($loginInformation) > 0)
            {
                $loginAccount = $loginInformation->getLoginAccounts()[0];
                if(isset($loginInformation))
                {
                    $accountId = $loginAccount->getAccountId();
                    if(!empty($accountId))
                    {
                        //*** STEP 2 - Signature Request from a Template
                        // create envelope call is available in the EnvelopesApi
                        $envelopeApi = new DocuSign\eSign\Api\EnvelopesApi($apiClient);
                        // assign recipient to template role by setting name, email, and role name.  Note that the
                        // template role name must match the placeholder role name saved in your account template.
                        $templateRole = new  DocuSign\eSign\Model\TemplateRole();
                        $templateRole->setEmail("[SIGNER_EMAIL]");
                        $templateRole->setName("[SIGNER_NAME]");
                        $templateRole->setRoleName("[ROLE_NAME]");             

                        // instantiate a new envelope object and configure settings
                        $envelop_definition = new DocuSign\eSign\Model\EnvelopeDefinition();
                        $envelop_definition->setEmailSubject("[DocuSign PHP SDK] - Signature Request Sample");
                        $envelop_definition->setTemplateId("[TEMPLATE_ID]");
                        $envelop_definition->setTemplateRoles(array($templateRole));
                        
                        // set envelope status to "sent" to immediately send the signature request
                        $envelop_definition->setStatus("sent");

                        // optional envelope parameters
                        $options = new \DocuSign\eSign\Api\EnvelopesApi\CreateEnvelopeOptions();
                        $options->setCdseMode(null);
                        $options->setMergeRolesOnDraft(null);

                        // create and send the envelope (aka signature request)
                        $envelop_summary = $envelopeApi->createEnvelope($accountId, $envelop_definition, $options);
                        if(!empty($envelop_summary))
                        {
                            echo "$envelop_summary";
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        catch (DocuSign\eSign\ApiException $ex)
        {

Notes

This version of the client library does not implement all of the DocuSign REST API methods. The current client omits methods in the Accounts, Billing, Cloud Storage, Connect, Groups (Branding), and Templates (Bulk Recipients) categories. The client's methods support the core set of use cases that most integrations will encounter. For a complete list of omitted endpoints, see Omitted Endpoints.
