(Updated) eSignature for Microsoft 365 - Recipient groups

Updated September 21, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.

Introduction

We are introducing recipient groups for eSignature in Microsoft 365. Recipient groups allow a single recipient slot to be assigned to multiple people, where the first person to sign fulfills the signing requirement. This update helps make signature workflows more reliable by reducing delays when a specific signer is unavailable, without changing existing tenant policies.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 560822.
