1. Getting the Process URL
As always, we need a Process URL first. Therefore we need our personal API Key. Click "Execute" to request the Process URL.
POST https://api.cloudconvert.com/v1/process
2. Starting the Process
Using the obtained Process URL, the process is started using the following request. We set input to url and file to the website URL. We set wait to true to block the request until the conversion is finished. All possible converter options can be identified with the Conversion types API or the
API console.
