Saas Management


This integration requires the SaaS Management Add-on. More details can be found here.


Freshservice’s integration with DocuSign for SaaS Management enables you to track and manage users using DocuSign directly within Freshservice. Integrating with DocuSign enables you to:

  • Track users using DocuSign and how frequently they use it (not just by login, but also by how they create/update files in DocuSign) to identify inactive users for de-provisioning



To use this integration for SaaS Management, 

  • Enable the SaaS Discovery toggle and provide the Freshservice Domain Name & the Agent API Key.
    Note: To know more about what SaaS Discovery is, click here.
  • Click Verify
  • Once the verification is successful, Click Add and complete the installation by clicking on Install. 
    Note: 
    The first sync might take a couple of hours depending on your data load.
