Generate recipient view
POST/restapi/v2.1/accounts/:accountId/envelopes/:envelopeId/views/recipient
Generate an embedded signing URL for a recipient.
This is one of the most critical endpoints for embedded signing workflows. The URL allows recipients to sign documents directly within your application.
When the signing ceremony ends, the recipient is redirected to returnUrl
with an event query parameter — signing_complete, decline, cancel,
session_timeout, ttl_expired, or viewing_complete.
