4. Make an API Request

Use your Client ID and Client Secret to make API requests. Here’s an example of getting supported file formats using the SDK:

// Example: Get supported file formats using GroupDocs.Signature Cloud SDK
string MyClientSecret = "";  // Get from https://dashboard.groupdocs.cloud
string MyClientId = "";      // Get from https://dashboard.groupdocs.cloud

var configuration = new Configuration(MyClientId, MyClientSecret);
var apiInstance = new InfoApi(configuration);
var response = apiInstance.GetSupportedFileFormats();

Sign DOCX Document with Image Signature using C# Code

// For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/groupdocs-signature-cloud/groupdocs-signature-cloud-dotnet-samples
// Get ClientId and ClientSecret from https://dashboard.groupdocs.cloud
string MyClientSecret = "";
string MyClientId = "";

var configuration = new Configuration(MyClientId, MyClientSecret);
var apiInstance = new SignApi(configuration);

// Sign options
var options = new SignImageOptions {
    SignatureType = SignatureTypeEnum.Image,
        ImageFilePath = "signature.jpg",
        Left = 100,
        Top = 100,
        Width = 200,
        Height = 100,
        LocationMeasureType = SignImageOptions.LocationMeasureTypeEnum.Pixels,
        SizeMeasureType = SignImageOptions.SizeMeasureTypeEnum.Pixels,
        RotationAngle = 0,
        HorizontalAlignment = SignImageOptions.HorizontalAlignmentEnum.None,
        VerticalAlignment = SignImageOptions.VerticalAlignmentEnum.None,
        Margin = new Padding {
            All = 5
        },
        MarginMeasureType = SignImageOptions.MarginMeasureTypeEnum.Pixels,
        Page = 1,
        AllPages = true,
        PagesSetup = new PagesSetup {
            EvenPages = false,
                FirstPage = true,
                LastPage = false,
                OddPages = false,
                PageNumbers = new List < int ? > {
                    1
                }
        }
};
// Sign settings.
var signSettings = new SignSettings {
    FileInfo = new FileInfo {
            FilePath = "one-page.docx"
        },
        SaveOptions = new SaveOptions {
