Expiration Dates in Agreements

Set a clear deadline for when an agreement must be signed — and what happens if it isn’t.


Understanding Expiration Dates

Expiration dates let you define how long an agreement is valid for signing. Once the expiration date is reached, the agreement can no longer be signed — the signing room is closed, and participants won’t be able to access it.

Setting an expiration date is optional. If you don’t set one, the agreement will remain open indefinitely until all participants have completed their actions.

No notifications are sent when an agreement expires. It simply becomes inactive and cannot be signed.


Usage

To set an expiration date for an agreement, include the expires_at field when creating or updating it:

{
[...],
"expires_at": "2025-04-30T23:59:59Z"
}

The time part will be ignored — the agreement will expire at 23:59:59.999 UTC on the given date.

If expires_at is omitted, the agreement will remain active indefinitely.
