A Signature Certificate is a document that is included either as a page at the end of the completed document or as an extra attachment included with the final signed and completed document, depending on how the setting Include Signature Certificate on PDF is set.

It details the signature of all the signers, sender and signer information, and an audit trail and metadata related to the documents of the corresponding envelope ID.

The Signature Certificate may also be found in the Envelopes Tab. When the expander arrow icon is clicked, the envelope information is displayed to include the details of that transaction. Click on the green envelope on the right for more available options. In the pop-up window you will have the option to download the Signature Certificate.
