Calling listTabs via the EnvelopesApi in docusign/esign-client threw a fatal "Class 'Number' not found" from ObjectSerializer.php. During deserialization the SDK passed the bare class name 'Number' to the deserializer instead of the namespaced \DocuSign\eSign\Model\Number, so PHP could not resolve it. The report came from a Laravel 5.x app using docusign/esign-client ^3.0, and several other users reproduced it.

As a workaround, edit vendor/docusign/esign-client/src/ObjectSerializer.php and replace the bare 'Number' class reference with the fully qualified '\DocuSign\eSign\Model\Number' — a community member confirmed this fixes the fatal. The maintainer reports the bug (DCM-3210) is fixed in SDK v5.1, so upgrading with composer require docusign/esign-client:^5.1 is the proper resolution.
