Generate PDF via API

An API-first approach to generating PDF documents from templates.

The API was designed to be used from:

Custom software applications, built using Java, .Net, PHP, Ruby, Python, etc., by calling the API directly.
Third-Party and No/Low Code platforms by configuring a webhook or services within the platform to connect to the API.

The API Render Service

The “/render” endpoint is the main service used to generate documents.

The calling application sends a data payload to the API.
The payload contains: the data; the template name; the output format(s).
Calls are synchronous (no polling) and wait while the request is completed.
Documents are returned in the response or delivered as instructed.

The API offers convenient features such as Dev Mode. In the event of an error, this mode controls whether:

A document IS generated, with the errors highlighted in the document (helpful during development); or,
A document IS NOT generated. Instead an error code and message are returned to the calling application (perfect for production).

Integrating the API with your platform/application
