Clear Signature Field operation

Removes the signature from a signature field.

For example, your application must remove digital signatures from PDF documents of people that left the organization. You use the Clear Signature Field operation to remove the digital signature from a specific signature field on the PDF document. In a step before the Clear Signature Field operation, use the Get Signature operation or Get Signature Field List operation to determine the name of the signature fields in the PDF document.

For information about the General and Route Evaluation property groups, see Common operation properties.

Input properties

Properties to specify the PDF document and the signature field.

Input PDF

A document value that represents a PDF document that contains the signature field to clear.

If you provide a literal value, clicking the ellipsis button opens the Select Asset dialog box. (See About Select Asset.)

When you provide a PDF document that has signature fields that are signed, it populates the Signature Field Name property as a list. The list contains fully qualified names of the signed signature fields in the PDF document.

Signature Field Name

A string value that represents the name of the signature field to clear. The fully qualified name of the signature field must be specified. When using a PDF document based on a form created in Designer, the partial name of the signature field can be used. For example, form1[0].#subform[1].SignatureField3[3] can be specified as SignatureField3[3].

If multiple signature fields exist with a similar partial name, the first signature field enumerated with the same partial name is signed. It is recommended that a fully qualified name is used to avoid these situations.

If you provide a literal value for the Signature Field Name property and a literal value is provided in the Input PDF property, a list appears. Select one of the values from the list of fully qualified names. Each fully qualified name represents a signed signature field in the provided PDF document.

Output properties

Property to specify the output PDF document.

Output PDF

The location in the process data model to store the PDF document. The PDF document contains the cleared signature field. The data type is document.
