This runs in the Acrobat app - there is no separate API for this task.
When you send one document, it goes to one or a few specific signers. 'Send in Bulk' lets you send the same document to many different signers at once, up to 1,000. Each signer gets a unique copy, and they do not see who else is signing. This saves time when you have many people to reach.
'Send in Bulk' is an advanced feature designed for businesses and users who need to manage a large volume of signatures efficiently. It creates many individual agreements with unique audit trails, which requires more robust processing and tracking capabilities. Adobe offers this as part of its professional-grade subscriptions to ensure users have the necessary tools and support for high-volume tasks. This helps maintain security and compliance for each separate agreement.
A 'parent template' is the original document you upload when you use 'Send in Bulk'. Acrobat uses this single document as a base to create many 'child agreements'. Each child agreement is an exact copy of the parent template, but it is sent to a different signer. This ensures all signers get the same document while allowing for individual tracking.
If you 'Send in Bulk' to 500 people, it will count as 500 separate agreements against your transaction limits. This is because each person receives their own unique agreement with its own audit trail, even though they all started from the same document. It is important to check your Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Sign plan to understand your monthly or annual agreement limits before sending large batches.
