# Document Generation Tools

The CloudFiles MCP tools for Document Generation, for working with your templates and the documents generated from them.

> Kind: Guide · Updated: Nov 4, 2026

Document Generation tools let an agent work with CloudFiles Document Generation from a conversation: finding the templates your team has published, generating documents from them for Salesforce records, and following what happens to those documents afterwards. They use the same templates and connections as Document Generation in Salesforce. Each tool's page lists what it does, the inputs it takes, what it returns and example requests.

1. **list-templates** — Lists the Salesforce document templates that are ready to generate from, filtered by Salesforce object or by words in the name, description or tags, with the values each template needs.
2. **generate-document** — Starts a document from a template for one Salesforce record, saved to the record's Salesforce Files or to a folder, in the template's own file type or as a PDF.
3. **get-document-status** — Shows whether a document is saved and where, gives fresh links to preview or download it, and shows each signer's progress.
4. **send-for-signing** — Sends a document that is waiting for approval to the signers its template names, through DocuSign.
