Request signatures
Send an e-signature template to one or more employees.
MCP tool bamboohr_write → request_signature
write Confirm
Requests a signature on the template from each employee in one call. Employees are notified and sign from their BambooHR inbox; the signed copy goes to the folder set in the template. An employee who already has a pending request for the same template is skipped and reported. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| template_id string required | string | Template ID from list_signature_templates. |
| employee_ids string[] required | string[] | Employee IDs from find_employee. |
