Edit witness e-mail address

This article explains how to edit the e-mail address for a witness on a transaction created from a template with witnesses enabled.

Use this option if the witness e-mail address is incorrect, or if the witness needs to receive the signing request at another e-mail address.

Before you start

'Witnesses' must be enabled in the template used for the transaction, before witness information can be edited on a transaction. If the Witnesses tab is not available, the transaction may have been created from a template where witnesses are not enabled.

For more information, see the article about how to add witnesses to a template.


Edit witness e-mail on a transaction

You can edit the witness e-mail address from the transaction details, provided the transaction status still allows changes.

  1. Go to Overview.

  2. Click the transaction row to open the relevant transaction:

  3. Open the Witnesses tab.

  4. Find the witness you want to update.

  5. Click Edit.

  6. Update the witness e-mail address.

  7. Click Save.

Update the witness e-mail address from the Witnesses tab in the transaction details.


If you cannot edit the witness e-mail

If you cannot edit the witness e-mail address, check whether:

  • The transaction was created from a template where witnesses were enabled

  • The transaction status still allows changes

  • You have access to edit transaction details

  • The witness has already completed their part of the signing flow

If the witness setup itself needs to be changed, ask an administrator to review the template.
