How it works

Upload your PDF

Upload your PDF

Fillable fields are imported automatically. For a flat or scanned PDF, drag fields onto the page in the template editor.

Set up your fields

Map the fields once

Name each field and set its type. Every template gets a JSON schema, so bad data returns a clear error instead of a wrong document.

Send an API request

Fill it from your app

Send JSON to our API or SDKs and download the finished PDF, or share a hosted form that fills the PDF for you.

Works with your code and your tools

API and SDKs

A REST API with official SDKs in 9 languages: Ruby, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, C#, Java, Go and Elixir.

Hosted web forms

Every template gets a web form that you can share as a link or embed on your site. Each submission becomes a filled-out PDF.

E-signatures with Data Requests

Send someone a hosted or embedded form to check their details and sign. Every signed PDF includes an audit trail.

Webhooks and no-code tools

Webhooks tell your app when a PDF is ready. You can also connect Zapier, n8n, Node-RED, Bubble or Parabola, or save PDFs to your own S3 bucket.

Government forms FAQ

Can DocSpring fill VA Form 21-526EZ and other VA claim forms?

Yes. Upload the VA's PDF, map its fields once, and fill it from your data through the API. The same template works for every veteran you help, and fields like Social Security numbers can be split into one character per box.

Can I fill a whole claim package from one set of data?

Yes. Send the same veteran's data to each template, such as the 21-526EZ, 21-4138 and 21-4142, then combine the filled PDFs into one file.

Can veterans and applicants complete and sign forms online?

Yes, with Data Requests. They open a hosted or embedded form, add anything that's missing and sign, and DocSpring fills the PDF with an audit trail. Check each agency's rules on electronic signatures before you submit a form signed this way.

What happens when an agency releases a new version of a form?

Upload the new PDF to the same template and adjust any fields that moved. If the field names stay the same, your code doesn't need to change.

Can I fill any official PDF from an agency website?

Most agency PDFs work, whether they have fillable fields or are flat scans. Some are dynamic XFA forms, which show a "Please wait" message instead of the form in most PDF viewers, and DocSpring can't fill those. DocSpring also doesn't keep the barcodes that some forms print in their footer.

Can DocSpring fill permit and license applications?

Yes. Upload each city's or state's form once and fill it with project or business details from your platform. With a template for each form, you can support every jurisdiction your customers work in.

Is DocSpring secure enough for government work?

DocSpring has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit, and you can request the report through our Trust Portal. Submission data is encrypted at rest, and you choose US or EU data residency. If your documents can't leave your own servers, we offer self-hosted enterprise licenses.
