Chat with eSigners

There are two kinds of chats on DocuX.

  • A platform-wide chat that you can access from the header in your workspace. Learn more about the platform-wide chat.
  • A contextual chat built into the document and eSign editors. You can use the chat functionality inside the document editor to chat with the collaborators on that document. The chat functionality inside the eSign editor is used to chat with eSigners and approvers on the eSign document. These chats are stored with the respective document so the context is never lost.
