ApproveThis manages your SignerX.com Integration approvals.

Integration Category: Documents
Letâs be real â getting documents signed shouldnât feel like herding cats through a laser tag arena. Between chasing down approvals and coordinating signatures, most teams waste more time on process than actual work. Thatâs why pairing ApproveThis with SignerX through Zapier is like giving your approval workflows a double shot of espresso. Weâre talking fewer bottlenecks, less email tennis, and actual visibility into whoâs holding up the show.
Why This Combo Works Better Than Office Birthday Cake
ApproveThis handles the decision-making circus â routing documents to the right people, escalating urgent requests, and keeping everyone accountable. SignerX? Itâs your digital notary with personality, complete with welcome videos and signing celebrations that make legal docs slightly less soul-crushing. Together through Zapier, they create a closed-loop system where approved documents automatically move to signing, and signed contracts trigger the next approval step. No more âI thought Karen was handling thatâ moments.
The Nuts and Bolts (Without the Engineering Degree)
Hereâs what happens when you connect these two through Zapier:
- Approval requests auto-create in ApproveThis when new SignerX documents land
- Approved decisions trigger pre-filled SignerX templates ready for signatures
- Completed signatures auto-generate follow-up approvals for finance or legal teams
Bonus: Approvers donât need a SignerX license. Perfect for clients, vendors, or that exec who still prints PDFs âfor security reasons.â
Real Teams Actually Using This (No Stock Photo BS)
HR Teams: Offer Letters That Donât Ghost You
Imagine this: New hire offer letters get created in SignerX > ApproveThis pings HRBP and comp team > Once approved, candidate gets signing link with welcome video from the CEO. No more chasing down verbal approvals or lost PDFs. Plus, vacation delegation means approvals keep moving while Karenâs sipping margaritas in Cabo.
Procurement Teams: PO Approvals That Beat the Fiscal Year Clock
Supplier contract hits SignerX > ApproveThis routes it to legal and budget owner based on $$ thresholds > Approved docs auto-send to vendor with signing game (because why not). If Legal rejects clause 4.2, the requester gets automatic feedback without 12 forward/ reply emails.
Sales Teams: Contracts That Close Before the Prospect Gets Cold Feet
Sales ops creates MSA in SignerX > ApproveThis routes to rev ops and legal > Approved deal gets sent for sigs with personalized video from AE. If legal needs redlines, they comment directly in ApproveThis â no more version control nightmares.
Setup Thatâs Easier Than Your Morning Coffee
1. Create your ApproveThis account (takes 2 minutes)
2. Connect both apps through Zapier (weâve got pre-built templates)
3. Map your approval chains:
- Set $$ thresholds for auto-approvals
- Assign backup approvers
- Add calculated fields for dynamic routing
4. Test with a dummy doc â if it works, go live. If not, tweak and retry.
Features Youâll Actually Use (Not Shelfware)
Email approvals: Let external partners approve via email without logging in. Theyâll think youâve got a personal assistant.
Approval groups: Route NDAs to entire legal team at once instead of playing âwhoâs least busyâ roulette.
Real-time tracking: See exactly where Stacyâs invoice approval is stuck (and gently nudge her at 3:07 PM).
When to Use This vs. When to Stick With Carrier Pigeons
Good fit:
- Companies juggling multiple approval types (legal, financial, compliance)
- Teams with external partners who shouldnât have system access
- Orgs where signed docs need secondary approvals (e.g., executed contracts requiring finance allocation)
Not for:
- Companies that enjoy 14-day approval cycles
- Teams who think âapproval workflowâ means CCâing the entire company
- Organizations using carrier pigeons (though we hear theyâre great at deadlines)
The Bottom Line (No MBA Jargon)
Connecting ApproveThis and SignerX via Zapier turns document processes from ânecessary evilâ to âactually manageable.â Youâre not just automating steps â youâre eliminating the black holes where requests go to die. Legal gets audit trails, managers keep visibility, and approvers can actually take PTO without the world burning down.
