BoldSign MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to BoldSign and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 80 BoldSign actions (22 reads, 49 writes and 9 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the BoldSign credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces BoldSign's limits and records every call.

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up

Connect BoldSign in three steps.

  1. 01

    Add actionlake to Claude.

    Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect BoldSign.

    API key. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    • api_keyBoldSign API key: in the BoldSign web app open API > API Key and generate a key (sandbox or live)
    • hostWhere your BoldSign lives: your host
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "boldsign" }
    # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
  3. 03

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

    Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

    do    { action: "boldsign.contacts.list" }# list contact document. · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "boldsign.contacts.create", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

The BoldSign API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 24 of BoldSign's 25 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the BoldSign actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

  1. Readread

    Find the BoldSign contacts with no email address, so we can clean them up.

    callsboldsign.contacts.list

  2. Writewrite

    Create the new Contact in BoldSign. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsboldsign.contacts.create

  3. Across systemsread

    Which contacts are in both BoldSign and HaloPSA, and how many are in only one of them?

Across your systems

BoldSign, joined to the rest of your business.

One ask fetches from BoldSign and another system, joins the rows on the same customer on our side, and hands your agent the answer, not every row.

  • Which contacts are in both BoldSign and HaloPSA, and how many are in only one of them?

    boldsign.contacts.list + halopsa.users.list, on crm.contact · HaloPSA

  • Which contacts are in both BoldSign and NetSuite, and how many are in only one of them?

Governance for BoldSign

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

9 BoldSign actions are destructive. These are all of them:

  • Deletes a contact.boldsign.contacts.delete
  • Delete the document.boldsign.documents.delete
  • Deletes a template.boldsign.templates.delete
  • Revoke the document.boldsign.documents.revoke
  • Deletes a Group Contact.boldsign.contact_groups.delete
  • Cancel the users invitation.boldsign.users.cancel_invitation
  • Delete the brand.boldsign.brands.delete
  • Delete the custom field.boldsign.custom_fields.delete
  • Deletes sender identity.boldsign.sender_identities.delete

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Questions

The BoldSign MCP server, answered.

Is there a BoldSign MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 80 BoldSign actions across documents, templates, users and sender identities, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by BoldSign.

What do I need to connect BoldSign?

BoldSign API key: in the BoldSign web app open API > API Key and generate a key (sandbox or live). Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "boldsign" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in BoldSign?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 9 BoldSign actions are destructive, including deletes a contact., delete the document. and deletes a template.. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my BoldSign API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the BoldSign service file: 2,000 calls an hour per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (20 BoldSign actions can be), which never reaches BoldSign.

What does a BoldSign action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (80 BoldSign actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls BoldSign refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which BoldSign API does it cover?

The BoldSign API v1 (OpenAPI 3.0.4) at api.boldsign.com by default, or the base URL set when you connect. It is built from BoldSign's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 80 actions in 11 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Can I combine BoldSign with my other systems?

Yes. ask joins BoldSign to HaloPSA or NetSuite on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. BoldSign maps crm.contact, which 192 other connectors also map.

Does actionlake keep my BoldSign data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your BoldSign credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
