How Does the Document Converter Plugin Work?

The RChilli Document Converter Plugin API is designed to seamlessly convert resume documents from one format to another—such as converting a .doc file into a .pdf.

This plugin is especially useful for ensuring document consistency and readability across platforms and systems.

What Does the Document Converter Do?

The Document Converter plugin allows users to convert various document formats using a simple API request. It supports popular formats and ensures the output file is compatible with your system or application.

For example, you can convert a .DOC file to .PDF by specifying the desired output format in the request.

How It Works

To perform a document conversion:

• API Endpoint:

  https://plugin.rchilli.com/RChilliPlugin/rchilli/documentConversion

• HTTP Request Type:
  POST

• Request Format:
  Accepts input in application/json format.

• Response Type:
  Returns output in JSON, with the converted document encoded in Base64.

• Key Parameter:

  • outputtype: Specify the target file format (e.g., "pdf").

💡 Example:
To convert a Word document to PDF, set "outputtype": "pdf" in the API request payload.

📦 Output Format

The converted document will be returned as Base64-encoded data in the JSON response. You can decode this string to retrieve and save the document in its new format.
