The above feature to insert Power Automate links into the Manage page was released on July 25, 2024.
Experience Changes
- A new post-signing page for unregistered recipients — Recipients who complete their action (sign, approve, etc.) are delivered to a new post-signing page that provides access to their agreement PDF, and offers an opportunity to try a few of the more popular Adobe Acrobat features:
Countries with stricter communication laws will not display the four "Try now" offers. Those countries are currently:
- Belgium
- Canada
- Germany
- Slovenia
- South Korea
This list of countries may change as local regal requirements change.
A secondary stripped-down experience is delivered to recipients whose agreements are subject to the following exemptions:
• Recipients signing an agreement through an embedded application.
• When the group from which the agreement is sent has a redirect URL.
Registered recipients are delivered a version of the post-signing page that provides a button to sign in to the Manage page of their Acrobat Sign account:
