  title: DocuSign Embedded Signing View
  summary: Create and send an envelope to an embedded signer, then generate a recipient view URL for in-app signing.
  description: >-
    Powers embedded signing inside your own application. The workflow creates
    and sends an envelope whose signer carries a clientUserId, which marks the
    recipient as an embedded (captive) signer, and then requests a recipient
    view URL that your application loads in an iframe or redirect so the signer
    completes the document without leaving your product. Every step spells out
    its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
