Hi there,
thanks for the quick response to my query. Actually, the problem is that I'm unable to get the signature folder path, which I need to provide in the 'From' parameter of the API. For your better understanding, I have attached a screenshot of the signature path where the documents are currently showing, and I also mentioned the folder to which I need to move them using the API in the attachment. Please have a look at the attached screenshot below:

anil6, those files would actually be located in a "HelloSign" folder, which you can find when you click on "All Files" in the sidebar, on the left.

 

The "top" path for that folder would be /hellosign.

 

Hope this adds further clarification.

    DB-Des  thanks for responding again about my reply above. Unfortunately, the solution you provided is not working. After clicking on all the files, I did not find the two PDF files you mentioned in dropbox account. However, when I clicked on the "Signature" tab on the left side, the files are showing there. The path you gave me (/hellosign) is giving the following error when I try to move the file to the folder (jack). Please check the attached screenshot again of all directories(all files, signature and api request response and let me know if you find a better solution to resolve this matter.
