Integrate high-speed, headless file conversions directly into your applications. Fast, stateless, and secured with API keys.
Standard API plan: 60 requests/minute, bursting up to 120 req/min with automatic concurrent queueing.
Source and output files are automatically purged after 1 hour. No permanent data retention.
Supports 30+ conversion types: PDF, Office (DOCX, PPTX, XLSX), images, audio, video, OCR, and QR.
All API requests must authenticate using an API key passed in the x-api-key HTTP header or as a Bearer token:
x-api-key: uc_live_9a7b8c1d2e3f4g5h6i7j8k9l0mNever expose your secret API keys in client-side code (browsers or mobile apps). Always execute calls from your secure backend servers.
Creates an asynchronous file conversion job.
