⚡ Wichtig beim ersten Öffnen
Klick auf deiner CApp-URL auf Sign Up, wähl E-Mail + Passwort. Danach zeigt Documenso "please check your email to verify your account" - ignorieren, die kommt nie an. Einfach 10 Sekunden warten, dann auf /signin gehen und mit denselben Daten einloggen. Fertig, du bist automatisch bestätigt und Admin.
Documenso
Documenso is the open-source alternative to DocuSign. Upload a PDF, add signature fields, invite signers, and get legally binding e-signatures - self-hosted, so your documents never leave your own instance.
Getting started
- Open your CApp URL and click Sign Up - pick any email and password, they're yours to keep using here.
- After you submit, Documenso shows "please check your email to verify your account". You can ignore that message - there's no mail server behind this instance, so it never arrives, and you don't need it. Just wait about 10 seconds, then go to /signin and log in with the same email and password you just chose. Your account gets verified and made admin automatically in the background - no email, no waiting on us.
- You're in. Upload a document, add fields (signature, initials, date, text), and either sign it yourself or send it to others.
Signing certificate
Every instance automatically generates its own self-signed signing certificate on first start. It lives on the instance's persistent volume, so it stays the same across restarts and resource changes.
Outgoing mail (signing invites to other people, notifications, and the verification email from step 2 above) needs an SMTP relay to actually be delivered. Without one, Documenso still works for uploading, self-signing, and sharing direct links - invite emails just won't go out. Get in touch if you need SMTP wired up.
