# Create a client
client = CPDFClient(public_key, secret_key)
A task ID is automatically generated for you based on the type of PDF tool you choose. You can provide the callback notification URL. After the task processing is completed, we will notify you of the task result through the callback interface. You can perform other operations according to the request result, such as checking the status of the task, uploading files, starting the task, or downloading the result file.
# Create a client
client = CPDFClient(public_key, secret_key)
# Create a task
# Create an example task to convert a PDF tO a Word
create_task_result = client.create_task(CPDFConversionEnum.PDF_TO_WORD)
# Get a task id
task_id = create_task_result.task_id
Upload the original file and bind the file to the task ID. The field parameter is used to pass the JSON string to set the processing parameters for the file. Each file will generate automatically a unique file key. Please note that a maximum of five files can be uploaded for a task ID and no files can be uploaded for that task after it has started.
# Create a client
client = CPDFClient(public_key, secret_key)
# Create a task
# Create an example task to convert a PDF tO a Word
create_task_result = client.create_task(CPDFConversionEnum.PDF_TO_WORD)
# Get a task id
task_id = create_task_result.task_id
# Upload files
client.upload_file(convert_file, task_id)
After the file upload is completed, call this interface with the task ID to process the files.
# Create a client
client = CPDFClient(public_key, secret_key)
# Create a task
# Create an example task to convert a PDF tO a Word
create_task_result = client.create_task(CPDFConversionEnum.PDF_TO_WORD)
# Get a task id
task_id = create_task_result.task_id
# Upload files
client.upload_file(convert_file, task_id)
# execute Task
client.execute_task(task_id)
Request task status and file-related meta data based on the task ID.
# Create a client
client = CPDFClient(public_key, secret_key)
# Create a task
# Create an example task to convert a PDF tO a Word
create_task_result = client.create_task(CPDFConversionEnum.PDF_TO_WORD)
# Get a task id
task_id = create_task_result.task_id
# Upload files
client.upload_file(convert_file, task_id)
# execute task
client.execute_task(task_id)
# Query TaskInfo
task_info = client.get_task_info(task_id)
