Use the Generate Contract API to prepare the final PDF that needs to be signed by passing the template ID and the JSON data for each of the customers.

Here is a step-by-step process to create your own contract/agreement PDF document for digital signing.
Create your own contract or agreement in a PDF format or PDFBase64.
Give the final PDF, which will serve as the contract or agreement to digitally sign.

Once you create the PDF document which needs to be signed, you can give the option to the end customer to preview the document on your mobile application/web application. In this way, you can control the experience of previewing the document and then moving to the next step of signing.
