How files are indexed in Dropbox Sign zipped folders
Updated Nov 25, 2025
In this article
If you're using templates:
Let's assume there are two templates in a signature request with multiple signers, and you download the zipped folder:
- template_ids[0] will be 1_-_titlehere.pdf
- template_ids[1] will be 2_-_titlehere.pdf
If there was only one signer, you'd get the signer's email address in the file name too:
- template_ids[0] will be 1_-_titlehere-email_address.com.pdf
- template_ids[1] will be 2_-_titlehere-email_address.com.pdf
It's similar if you're using files:
Let's assume there are two files in a signature request with multiple signers, and you download the zipped folder:
- file[0] will be 1_-_titlehere.pdf
- file[1] will be 2_-_titlehere.pdf
or
- file_url[0] will be 1_-_titlehere.pdf
- file_url[1] will be 2_-_titlehere.pdf
Just the same as with templates, if there was only one signer, you'd get the signer's email address in the file name too:
- file[0] will be 1_-_titlehere.pdf
- file[1] will be 2_-_titlehere.pdf
or
- file_url[0] will be 1_-_titlehere-email_address.com.pdf
- file_url[1] will be 2_-_titlehere-email_address.com.pdf
What about the Audit Trail?
In all cases above, you'd get one copy of the Audit Trail titled Audit Trail.pdf.
