About

This Utility API lets you upload and convert an HTML file to a pdf document.
With this API, you can quickly and accurately transform any HTML file into a PDF with minimal loss to the formatting. PDF files can be easily shared via email, file sharing services, or web downloads, and they can be viewed using various PDF readers, such as Adobe Acrobat or Preview. This makes it easier to distribute information to a wider audience, including those who may not have access to the original HTML content or the software used to create it.

Authentication

All API requests to ApyHub services need to be authenticated. Currently we support tokens or basic authentication mechanisms. You can generate and view your existing credentials from your workspace settings (on the left side of the navbar) and go to “API Keys".
Points to note:
  • Credential secrets are generated on the fly and are not stored in plain text, so on generating a credential please save the secrets somewhere safe.
  • Use the apy-token as the header parameter to pass the token.
  • Use the Authorization header to send the basic authentication credentials.
