Aside from the usual allow or deny options available in Approval, the Approve & Sign element can also accept a signature as an additional requirement for your approvers.
Setting Up Approve & Sign
To require your approver’s signature
- In Jotform Approvals, add an Approve & Sign element to your approval flow.
- Select your Approve & Sign’s gear icon to open properties.
- In the properties pane on the right, choose the outcomes which you require signatures for.
- Scroll down to Signer Email Address and enter your approver’s email.
You can also select Form Fields in the Signer Email Address section and choose one of your form’s email fields as the approver’s email.
The rest of the options are the same with the Approval element. To learn more, see Approval Element.
With this setup, depending on your settings, your approvers are required to provide their signature when they approve or deny an entry from the email or Inbox.

I am having trouble with the signature requirement not popping up for an approver. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. When it does not ask for his signature, it still allows him to complete the task and hit the approve button. He receives a notice that says, "The task has been completed." However, in the system, it doesn't update and trigger the second approval flow as it's supposed to. So it's stuck at his level but we are not aware of that. We need the signature requirement to be consistent so that it can properly trigger the next step in the approval flow.

Hi,
Once my form / request has been approved, I send an email with the relevant information to various parties.
How can I get the signature itself added to that email? The only option I can see is comment field.
Thanks,
Glynn

Jotform does not support the Lao language, right?
I fill Lao language in form but not show in my form

is there a way to add the approval signature on the original PDF created by the form
More than a year ago
Is there a way to include this signature in a PDF created during the approval workflow?
In PDF creator I can only find the elements "Approval Status" and "Approval Activity History"
