Sign’Stash Proxy Client provides a REST API to enable your client services a full integration.
Please make sure that you have executed the steps in the “Getting Started (On-Premise)” section in order to have a valid client service credential to consume Sign’Stash services.
Authentication
Sign’Stash API is protected with an OAuth2 authentication scheme with client_credentials flow.
The following diagram depict the typical flow that your client service needs to ensure to retrieve an access token to invoke Sign’Stash API (einvoice-integration-ws) through the Proxy Client API (einvoice-integration-client-ws).
Both the clientID and the client secret refer to the configurations of the Sign’Stash client service that you wish to connect to. Thus, clientID is the client service alias and client secret is the defined credentials to it.
Step
Alternative Scenario
Behaviour
1
OAuth authentication error
Basic credentials presented are invalid.
New Basic Authentication must be requested by the client with the proper credentials.
Please make sure that clientID is the service alias known in Sign’Stash, and client secret is the password that you have defined in Sign’Stash backoffice.
6
Sign’Stash authentication error
OAuth token is invalid.
New OAuth token must be retrieved from OAuth server.
Authentication example request:
curl -v -X POST https://staging.must.digital/oauth2/authorization-server/oauth/token -d "grant_type=client_credentials" -H "Authorization: Basic <base64 of client_id:client_secret>"
This section describes the minimum and recommended memory requirements for running the service based on a common and an extreme scenarios.
This information is applied to an unique instance of the service and should be extrapolated according to the specific environment and architecture.

Integration Flows
This section describes the main flows that your implementation needs to guarantee for a successful integration.
While using the Sign’Stash Proxy Client component, it is only possible to execute digital signatures on a set of supplied documents, unlike the Integration Service, where it is also possible to consult documents details.
Document Signing
The following diagram illustrates the actions that a client service needs to execute to request the application of digital signatures on a set of documents.
Each document(s) signature request will produce a new operation in the system that could later be consulted on the backoffice.
Only the operation details can be consulted since the document is not stored either preserved in the system.
Step
Alternative Scenario
Behaviour
5
Client service not active
Client service or issuer is in not in active status, thus not allowing service usage.
Issuer operator should access Sign’Stash backoffice and check its configurations.
6
Digital certificate not provisioned
If client service has no valid digital certificate set, the Sign’Stash service will not be able to sign the document.
Issuer operator should access Sign’Stash backoffice and configure a proper certificate for the client service.
