Implemented JWT - The user ID of the user to be impersonated

We are developing application for e-signature on PDF for different users of oru system, which call many docusign APIs and we try use JWT to authenticate the APIs. I able to get token. But I have doubt on one parameter of JWT request body. I refer link https://developers.docusign.com/esign-rest-api/guides/authentication/oauth2-jsonwebtoken.

What do you mean by "The user ID of the user to be impersonated.", I used API account user id.

enter image description here

Please refer my previous query Signer URL for an envelope - calling docusign API and getting 400 bad request error. I think, this is not correct what I use to pass here. However I am getting token.

Please let me know if you want to know more details.

"The user ID of the user to be impersonated." means exactly this, you can impersonate a user or "act on behalf of the user" by providing his userId in the JWT call. So the impersonated user will be the sender of the envelope. If you use your account userId you will be acting as the sender
