About

The Markdown to HTML API lets you upload and transform Markdown files into HTML with minimal loss of formatting. Markdown is perfect for writing documentation, notes, or content quickly, but converting it to HTML ensures your content renders correctly across all browsers and devices.
This API is ideal for developers looking to automate and streamline documentation workflows. Common use cases include:
  • Converting project documentation or README files into HTML for websites or dashboards
  • Generating static site content from Markdown files in web apps
  • Automating blog or article publishing by transforming Markdown posts into HTML
  • Ensuring consistent styling and structure across multiple pages or web projects
While Markdown is great for simple text formatting, converting it to HTML enhances functionality, accessibility, and compatibility, making your content ready for any web environment.
Try out the Markdown to HTML API in the API playground for free, improve your document workflow, and reduce HTML conversion errors with a single API call.

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.
