# Signing several documents from the e-mail

When you have several documents waiting for your signature or approval, Signer sends a single e-mail with the list.
From version 3.3.0, the **View documents** button in that e-mail opens a screen where you sign or approve them all at
once, without creating an account and without logging in.

> **Note: Instance setting**
>
> This screen appears when the `General:PublicBatchSignatureEnabled` setting is on. Without it, the e-mail button leads
> to the document list, which asks you to log in.

## Step by step

Depending on the instance settings, the link opens straight on the signing screen (step 3), without the start screen
of step 2.

1. Open the e-mail with the pending documents and click **View documents**.
2. The screen shows who sent them, how many documents are waiting for your action, and their list. Click a row to see
   the document's details. When you are ready, click **Review and sign**.

3. The **Action queue** column shows the progress and the list of documents. You can:
   * review and sign one document at a time, with the **Sign** button next to the document; or
   * click **Sign all** (or **Approve all**, for approvals) to act on all of them together.

4. Follow the signing steps. Each document gets a green check when it is done. Click **Conclude**.

5. If you open the same link again, the screen shows what was already done. When nothing is left, it shows
   *All set. There are no pending actions for you.*

## Good to know

* The link is valid for a limited time. The start screen shows until when.
* The button leads to every document waiting for you at that moment, even the ones that didn't fit in the e-mail's
  list.
* To understand when Signer groups the notices, see [Grouped notices](https://docs.lacunasoftware.com/en-us/articles/signer/concepts/notifications#grouping).
