Attributes
url required URL to the source file. Supports links from Google Drive, Dropbox and from built-in PDF.co files storage. For uploading files via API please check Files Upload section. If you are randomly getting a `Too Many Requests` or `Access Denied` error for your input URL, Please try to add `cache:` to enable built-in URL caching. You can also `encrypt data` for output files and `decrypt data` input files with user-controlled data encryption to learn more.
httpusername optional HTTP auth user name if required to access source `url`.
httppassword optional HTTP auth password if required to access source `url`.
name optional File name for the generated output. Must be in a “string” format.
expiration optional Output link expiration in minutes. The default is `60` (i.e. 60 minutes or 1 hour). After this delay generated output file(s) (if any) will be auto-removed from PDF.co temporary files storage. Max allowed expiration period depends on your current subscription plan. To store permanent input files (e.g. re-usable images, pdf, documents), please use PDF.co built-in Files Storage instead.
worksheetIndex optional The index of the worksheet to use.
inline optional Must be one of: `true` to return data as inline or `false` to return the link to the output file (default).
async optional Runs processing asynchronously and returns `JobId` that you may use with `/job/check` to check the state of the processing (possible states: `working`, `failed`, `aborted` and `success`). Must be one of: `true`, or `false`.
profiles optional Use this parameter to set additional configurations for fine-tuning and extra options. Must be in a “string” format. Explore PDF.co knowledgebase for profile examples.
