Programmatically Approve DocuSign Document

Question

Soon after my user signs the DocuSign envelope, I want to be able to quickly approve or deny it. Referring to this SO question and this forum post , I added myself as (like Sender, I suppose) and created an Approve tag for my role.

This works fine, but since the circumstances in which I want to reject / revoke this document are rare and trivial to verify, I would rather not approve them manually. I see that there is a way to nullify an envelope through the API, but how can I approve it using the API? Or is there some better way to accomplish all this?

Answer 1

My best solution is to remove myself as the recipient of the envelope if I want to approve it (there is a way to do this through the API). Then, assuming that my user has already signed it, the envelope will be marked as completed.
