# Returns sender fields for an envelope.

`GET /v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/docGenFormFields`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://www.docusign.net/restapi`
- URL: `https://www.docusign.net/restapi/v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/docGenFormFields`
- Auth: none declared

Given an `envelopeId`, this method returns the sender fields found in that envelope's documents. After you retrieve the sender fields, use the [DocumentGeneration::updateEnvelopeDocGenFormFields](/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/documentgeneration/updateenvelopedocgenformfields/) method to populate the fields.

If the specified envelope does not contain a document with sender fields, the method will return success (`200`) and an empty object (`{}`) in the response.
