How do I get and use my test account.
The resource provided for a test account is not working for me , Dropbox sign is still asking me to pay for the API. Can you please explain how can use this application to test my app for the hackthon.

Hi Denis, Sorry to hear that! Were you including the boolean parameter test_mode? There is more information on testing the Dropbox Sign API here https://developers.hellosign.com/#testing-the-hellosign-api

Hi Michelle,
1. Does including the test_mode parameter in the client side, take account of rate limits on trail api usage,
or are the api requests calculated only when generating the sign url.
2. Does email sending work while on test_mode?

Hi Michelle, I'm on test_mode=True and facing the limit of 10 emails. Is there a way to avoid the limit while on test mode?
'error_msg': 'You have exceeded the 10 email limit for your free '
'trial. Please try again in 1431 minutes or consider '
'upgrading to a paid plan.'

Oleksandr, seems like your question answered 1/2 of my question, I didn't notice the error messages in the logs.
But still the emails are not being sent for the the sign requests.
Is it because of unverified domains for webhook url.?

I'm facing the same issue as @Oleksandr... btw: I'm using the Python SDK with
data = models.SignatureRequestCreateEmbeddedRequest(
client_id=DROPBOX_CLIENT_ID,
title="Test",
subject="Always test!",
message="Please sign this!",
signers=[signer_1],
# cc_email_addresses=["lawyer1@dropboxsign.com", "lawyer2@dropboxsign.com"],
files=[open("sample.pdf", "rb")],
signing_options=signing_options,
test_mode=True,
)

I don't know if there's a solution...
But in order to keep going, I had to comment the working code and mock the response.
