    Template-based document and PDF generation API. Merge JSON data with
    reusable templates to produce PDFs and other documents synchronously,
    asynchronously, or in batches, manage templates and their data fields,
    and partition work across multi-tenant workspaces. All requests are
    authenticated with a short-lived JSON Web Token (JWT) signed (HS256)
    using your API secret, with your API key as the issuer (iss) and the
    workspace identifier as the subject (sub).
