AskYourPDF API Documentation

Introducing the AskYourPDF API

AskYourPDF is a cutting-edge solution revolutionizing document interactions. Our API empowers developers with the ability to programmatically extract valuable information from PDF files and leverage it to create custom chatbots. By providing seamless access to the content within PDF documents, developers can build powerful applications that enable users to navigate, search, and engage with data effortlessly. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the API's features, pricing, authentication methods, and usage guidelines, opening up endless possibilities to enhance productivity and knowledge retrieval for your applications. Harness the potential of AskYourPDF API and embark on an innovative journey of intelligent document analysis and interactive experiences.

Uploading A Document

To upload a document, choose between generating a document ID on our website or using the API endpoint. We support various document formats, including '.pdf', '.txt', '.ppt', '.pptx', '.csv', '.epub', and '.rtf'. Additionally, you can upload PDFs using links. Moreover, the API enables interaction with any blog post or website by providing the link to the post.

Authentication

Authentication is required for all our API endpoints. To access them, you must generate API keys on your AskYourPDF account. These API keys need to be set in your request header as "x-api-key." It is essential to treat your API key as a secret and ensure its protection.

headers: {
    "x-api-key": "ask_xxxxx"
  }
