Hi @JonFarmer 

For us to have context, we will need to see screenshots with how the step is configured.

The Document field expects a file object or a file url, instead of a filename.

You may want to use a different DocuSign action.

We would need to see updated screenshots with how your Zap step is configured to have full context.

The configuration is exactly the same as the previously posted one. The difference is that I deleted the action and re-set it up again. I am also now using a developer account. If you look at the latest error message it is saying that the request is blocked. Does anyone know what that means? Is it that the type of Docusign account does not have privileges for this type of action? That is all I can think of with out any further information in the error message
