EvidenceVerify the history row, PDF, email metadata, open evidence, signature, public page, client view or postal fields produced by this flow.
Code-backed validations and workflow rules
- get_template returns the selected row as JSON.
- The hidden ID causes save() to update rather than insert.
Expected result and verification
- The requested letter, template, setting, file or tracking detail is created or updated through the supported route.
- The history row, generated PDF, email/send metadata, public verification, signature evidence, client view or postal display agrees with the action.
- Any warning, missing file or failed send is investigated rather than bypassed.
Security, privacy and operational checks
- Apply least privilege and verify recipient identity before sending or exposing public links.
- Protect PDFs, enclosures, signatures, verification URLs, email-open metadata, IP addresses and customer data under organisational policy.
- Test configuration and deployment changes with controlled records before production-wide use.
- Interpret email opens and e-signatures according to their documented technical limitations.
