VerificationTime

A string value that represents the time to verify the signature in a PDF document.

VerificationTime variables are used in the following Signature service operations:

Verify PDF Signature operation

Verify PDF Signature operation (deprecated)

Verify XML Signature operation

These string values are valid:

CURRENT_TIME:
The time at which the verification operation is performed.

SECURE_TIME_ELSE_CURRENT_TIME:
Secure time is the time specified by a trusted time-stamping authority. If the validation returns an Unknown status, the validation is performed using CURRENT_TIME.

SIGNING_TIME:
The time at which the signature was applied as specified by the signer's computer.

If you specify SECURE_TIME_ELSE_CURRENT_TIME and validation returns a status of unknown with a trusted timestamp, the validation is checked using Current Time.
