There are two different parameters with Embedded Templates that have to do with signers, but serve different functions.

 

allow_edit_signers

allow_edit_signers is a parameter in the Create Embedded Template Draft endpoint, that when provided and True, lets you edit the signer roles in the editor’s right sidebar. You must select a field to show the sidebar.

 

force_signer_roles

force_signer_roles is a parameter in the Get Embedded Template Edit URL endpoint that when provided and True, shows a modal to edit signer roles before showing the editor.
