Connect with an API token
-
In Yousign:
- Sign in to Yousign as a user with the Admin or Owner role (only they can create API keys).
- Open the API section and go to the API keys page.
- Create a key: add a description, select the environment (Sandbox or Production), choose the scope (organization or workspace), and under permissions select Read-Only.
- Copy the API key and paste it into Safeguard's API key field; Yousign expects it in each API request.
Where to find the other values:
- Environment (optional): The environment you chose when creating the key: Sandbox uses
https://api-sandbox.yousign.app/v3, Production useshttps://api.yousign.app/v3.

The permissions Safeguard needs. Yousign issues no read-only credential. Safeguard only reads with it, and you can revoke it at any time.

Frameworks
Safeguard's automated tests read Yousign and map to the controls below. When a test passes, the result is evidence toward each control it maps to, in every framework listed. It is evidence toward a control, not proof that the control is met on its own.
| Framework | Evidence | Controls | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOC2 | Automated tests | CC6.2, CC6.3 | 3 |
| ISO/IEC 27001 | Automated tests | A.5.16, A.5.18, A.6.5, A.8.2 | 3 |
| HIPAA Security Rule | Automated tests | 164.308(a)(3), 164.308(a)(4) | 3 |
| PCI DSS | Automated tests | 7.2.2, 7.2.4, 8.2.5 | 3 |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Automated tests | PR.AA-01, PR.AA-05 | 3 |
These tests are switched on per workspace by the Safeguard team.
