      summary: Send a signal to all participants
      description: Use the Signal REST API to send signals to all participants in an active Vonage Video session or to a specific client connected to that session. Signals sent from the server have an empty from parameter in the signal received handlers on clients connected to the session. For a signal sent from a participant in the session, the from property is set the connection ID of the client that sent the signal, but in this case there is no associated connection.
