Create a document from a template - using populate syntax

Create a document from a template using populate syntax.

Step 1:
In the Quicklysign UI, go to your template page.

Make sure all your data_fields have custom_ids specified. These are used in your post request to populate the template before signatures are request.

Near the bottom of the template page, there's a link saying "Show API Information". Click this link and to view all the fields that can be used for populating the document.

See documentation here: https://docs.quicklysign.com/docs/documents#section-using-populate-syntax

Step 2.
Call POST /documents/<document_key>/create_new_document_from_template?use_populate_syntax=true&auto_request_signatures_when_ready=true
(where the <document_key> is the key of the template you wish to copy).
with the body containing your parameters for the template.

The query string parameter "use_populate_syntax" indicates that this request must use the simplified syntax.
"auto_request_signatures_when_ready" indicates that a signature request can be sent immediately, as soon as the document is ready.
