Managed DocuSeal hosting

CoreHost creates the owner account before your app first opens, so the public setup page can never be claimed by someone else. The owner email and a generated password are shown on your app page. Sign in with them, then change the owner email in the app's settings on CoreHost to your own address. If you forget the password or get locked out, set a new one there and restart.

Add your own email server in DocuSeal under Settings, Email: host, port, username, password, the security type (STARTTLS for port 587, SSL or TLS for port 465) and the address to send from. Direct port 25 is blocked on our network. Without one, DocuSeal still works: copy each signer's link from the submission page and send it yourself. Password reset emails from DocuSeal also need the email server.

We cannot tell you that. Signed PDFs carry a digital signature made with a certificate your instance generates for itself, so PDF readers show it as self-signed, not issued by a recognised authority. Whether an electronic signature is accepted for a particular document depends on your country, the type of document and the other party, so ask your own adviser. CoreHost does not give legal advice. You can upload your own certificate in DocuSeal's settings.

Your signed PDFs, audit logs and the signing certificate are stored together in your app's storage and in its daily backups. We checked that documents signed before an update, a restore or a rollback still verify in DocuSeal afterwards, and that new documents are still signed with the same certificate. Keep your own copy of anything you must be able to prove later.

Not here. Your logo and white labelling are part of DocuSeal Pro, which DocuSeal LLC sells separately and which CoreHost does not offer. The open source edition keeps the DocuSeal attribution on its signing pages, as its licence requires.

Upload your PDFs as templates and place the fields, or create templates and signing requests from your own systems with the API using the key under Settings, API. Completed documents stay with the service that signed them, so download those before you switch.

We do. Curated updates roll out shortly after upstream releases and are tested on our platform first; security fixes move fast. If an update changes behaviour in a breaking way, we email you before it lands.

Take a final export or SFTP copy any time before you cancel. After termination we keep your data for 14 days (in case you change your mind), then purge it, backups included.

Yes. Point a CNAME at your instance, prove ownership with a TXT record, and TLS certificates are issued automatically. Cloudflare-proxied domains work; if you use CAA records, allow letsencrypt.org.
