Releases roll out to tenant deployments gradually, so features introduced in a newer release are marked Available as of NSEV vX.Y throughout these docs. This page tracks changes to the API and its documentation - for full product release notes per NSEV version, see the NSEV release overview.
​
v8.5
API changes shipping with NSEV v8.5. Everything below is marked Available as of NSEV v8.5. in the API reference; check your tenant’s version (see the tip at the bottom of this page) before relying on it.Improved endpoints:Elements
  • Create element, Create unplaced element and Create actor - new ComboBoxField element type: a dropdown the end user picks an option from. Options carry a DisplayLabel and an optional ExportValue; the field supports a DefaultValue, an AllowCustomInput flag for free-text entry, and can be bound to an existing PDF combo box via FieldId (the options then come from the PDF). Returned by all element and actor read endpoints.
  • Create element and Create unplaced element - text box fields accept a new InputType hint (Text, Date, Time, DateTime or Number) controlling how the text box is rendered and validated on the actor-UI-side. Defaults to Text.
Packages
  • Create package and Get package - new DefaultSigningMethods property: package-level default signing methods copied onto every signing field that lacks explicitly configured signing methods, at the moment the field is created (however that happens). The property is populated only while the package is a draft and is cleared on submit. Packages created from a template inherit the source package’s defaults.
​
v8.4
A ground-up revamp of the Nitro Sign Enterprise Verified developer documentation: a rebuilt API reference for NSEV v8.4: covering packages, documents, actors, elements, stakeholders, substitutes, bulk actions, audit trails, users, and configuration. Plus new getting-started guides, tutorials, concept pages, and integration guides.

The first two components of ProductVersion are the NSEV release - here, v8.4. If a feature marked Available as of NSEV vX.Y is newer than the version your tenant runs, contact Nitro support to ask about the upgrade timeline.
