About Dropbox Sign
Dropbox Sign's changelog has slowed to a trickle of API limits and field notes.
Dropbox Sign is an e-signature service sold primarily through its API, and this feed is the developer changelog rather than a product one. Activity is sparse: two entries in 2026 to date, both small — a validation-bypass flag for text tag extraction, and a raised ceiling of 100 files per signature request. The one substantive item is older, a redesigned mobile web signing experience being rolled out gradually to API plans starting with Essentials.
