# Template

## Implementation Overview

Evia Sign's "**Initiate Signature Request from Template**" API simplifies the process of generating signature requests based on predefined templates. 

This API endpoint enables the initiation of a signature request from a template:

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `https://evia.enadocapp.com/_apis/sign/api/Requests?type=1`

#### Headers

| Name          | Type   | Description                                   |
| ------------- | ------ | --------------------------------------------- |
| Authorization | Bearer | Access token should be sent as request header |

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="200: OK " %}
Upon successful creation, a status code of 200 is returned, confirming the successful initiation of the sign request.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The provided JSON body serves as an example, showcasing the essential parameters required to initiate such a request.
