Participant events

Participant events are a log of what someone did while signing, such as entering the room, scrolling, or completing a signature.

What Are Participant Events?

At Zigned, we prioritize transparency and traceability. To that end, we log each step of a participant’s journey during the signing process and embed this information in the final signed document. The result is a detailed audit trail that can support dispute resolution or compliance checks.

Types of Events

We track most participant actions within the signing flow, including—but not limited to—entering the signing room, initiating or canceling a signature, scrolling through the document, and more.

However, since events are based on user interaction, we cannot log actions that never occurred (e.g. not opening an attachment or not scrolling a page). In these cases, the absence of a log entry may offer indirect insight.

Events Are Evolving

Participant events are continuously improved and expanded. New events are typically introduced alongside feature updates and may vary by API version. Additionally, event labels or descriptions may change over time.

Read-Only Nature

Participant events are immutable by design. They serve as a factual log of user activity and cannot be edited or removed.
