PDF.co OAuth Integration

Connect PDF.co to your application and send authenticated API requests through Pathfix.

PDF.co is an API for generating, converting and extracting data from PDFs. In Pathfix, PDF.co uses client key based authorization rather than an OAuth app. Users connect their PDF.co account through Pathfix, and your application sends PDF.co API requests through the Pathfix passthrough API.

How Pathfix helps

01
User connections
Users connect their PDF.co account to your app through the Pathfix Connect button.
02
Test before you ship
Use Test Connection in Pathfix to connect an account in the API Playground and run sample PDF.co calls.
03
Authenticated API passthrough
Your application sends PDF.co API requests through Pathfix, which adds the connected user’s credentials before passing them on to PDF.co.

You own the PDF.co account and credentials, and your code implements the API logic.
