Bulk Send - CSV file formatting
Trying to bulk send and have four fields
Company
Signature
Full Name
Title
No matter what I do, Bulk Send is only expecting two fields: Full Name and Email. Doesn't matter if I have Dropbox create the .csv or if I create it myself. The error is "Expected 2 fields on row 1, found 4"
Do the fields have to be tagged in a particular way?
While working through this issue, I also asked Customer Support how to deal with signatories whose names don't fit the "firstname, lastname" restriction in Dropbox sign. I was told there is no workaround (see below).
RESOLVED - once you know how the .csv files need to be formatted AND the roles that need to be assigned, there is a very simple (but not documented) workaround.
1. Here is how the template needs to be formatted (see below). You need a textbox assigned to the SENDER where you would normally just have the "Full Name" field assigned to the recipient.
2. Then you need your .csv file to look like this (which you CAN automatically generate using the "download .csv template"):
3. Now your recipient will receive a document with their proper name (see below)!
It would be fantastic if Dropbox had accurate documentation and sample files. This was SIX Days to get 33 signatures. Would have taken 5 minutes with DocuSign (100 signatory limit instead of 20).

Hi there 1000songs - thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Could you try another browser and let us know if you still get the same results?
If you do, I'd appreciate a screenshot too.
Thank!
