How do I view the audit trail?
Open the certified history of an envelope and download it as a certificate of completion.
The audit trail is the certified, tamper-evident record of everything that has happened to an envelope. You can open it at any point in the envelope's life — you don't have to wait until it is completed.
Open the audit trail
- Go to Envelopes and find the envelope you want.
- Click the ⋮ (more actions) menu at the end of the envelope's row.
- Choose Audit trail.
The Audit trail window opens, titled “Audit trail — Certified & tamper-evident.” At the top you'll see the envelope title, its current status, the channel it was sent through, whether signing was Sequential or Parallel, the envelope ID, and a ring showing how many of the total recipients have signed.
Audit trail is available from the ⋮ menu for every envelope, regardless of its status — so you can review the history of a draft, a sent envelope, or a completed one.
Download it as a certificate
The audit trail doubles as your certificate of completion. To save a copy:
- Open the envelope's ⋮ menu and choose Download PDF.
- In the “What to download” dialog, pick one of:
- Files only — just the signed documents.
- Files + audit trail — the documents plus the certificate.
- Audit trail only — the certificate on its own.
- Optionally turn on Merge all files into one PDF to get a single file instead of a ZIP.
- Confirm to open the download in a new tab.
Allow pop-ups
The download opens in a new browser tab. If nothing happens, allow pop-ups for BunnyDoc and try again.
