INVALID_CONTENT_TYPE when creating an envelope or template. about docusign_rest

[jondkinney]

Hi there,

Looks like you're not setting your account_id in the configure block which is breaking the request.

If you want to do it dynamically, you'd have to do it like this:

require 'bundler'

Bundler.require

DocusignRest.configure do |config|
  config.username       = '[email protected]'
  config.password       = '********'
  config.integrator_key = 'RFXX-5e8080a0-88d3-4c41-94b6-**********'
  config.endpoint       = 'https://demo.docusign.net/restapi'
  config.api_version    = 'v2'
end

acct_client = DocusignRest::Client.new
puts acct_client.get_account_id

DocusignRest.configure do |config|
  config.account_id = acct_client.get_account_id
end

client = DocusignRest::Client.new

response = client.create_envelope_from_document(
  email: {
    subject: 'Sign me please',
    body: 'This is the email body from docusign.'
  },
  # If embedded is set to true in the signers array below, emails don't go out
  # and you can embed the signature page in an iFrame by using the
  # get_recipient_view method
  signers: [
    {
      embedded: true,
      name: 'Test Guy',
      email: '[email protected]',
      role_name: 'Issuer',
      sign_here_tabs: [
      {
        anchor_string: 'sign_here_1',
        anchor_x_offset: '140',
        anchor_y_offset: '8'
      }
      ]
    },
  ],
  files: [
    { path: '/Users/mhawash/src/rpace/sandbox/docu_sign/test.pdf', name: 'test.pdf' },
  ],
  status: 'sent'
)

puts response

I tested this locally with my credentials and the test.pdf file from this repo and it worked.

However, personally I just embed the account_id directly in the first configure block. The query to get the account ID I believe is just to allow you to retrieve it initially. Of course, you can do it dynamically as I show above if you really want to...
