DocRaptor

@DocRaptor list the last 10 documents we've generated this month and show me which ones were PDFs vs spreadsheets

Based on your account history, here are the 10 most recent documents created in the past 30 days: **PDFs (7):** - Invoice_2024_Q1.pdf (created Jan 15, 2.3 MB) - Product_Catalog_v3.pdf (created Jan 12, 8.1 MB) - Contract_Amendment_A.pdf (created Jan 10, 1.4 MB) - Marketing_Report.pdf (created Jan 8, 5.6 MB) - Employee_Handbook.pdf (created Jan 5, 12.3 MB) - Sales_Deck_Final.pdf (created Jan 3, 4.2 MB) - Terms_of_Service.pdf (created Jan 2, 890 KB) **Spreadsheets (3):** - Revenue_Analysis_Q4.xlsx (created Jan 14, 245 KB) - Customer_List_Export.xls (created Jan 9, 1.1 MB) - Inventory_Report.xlsx (created Jan 4, 678 KB) This is an illustrative example showing typical document metadata returned from the List Documents API.

This example demonstrates DocRaptor's document history tracking. The List Documents tool requires valid API key authentication and returns paginated results (default 100 per page). Useful for auditing document generation patterns, but note that document storage retention policies vary by account tier—older documents may no longer be accessible for download.

@DocRaptor convert this HTML invoice template into a PDF with our company letterhead and send me the download link

I've successfully generated your PDF invoice using DocRaptor's synchronous document creation: **Document Created:** - Format: PDF - Size: 1.8 MB - Processing time: 3.2 seconds - Download URL: [docraptor-download-link-12345] The PDF includes your HTML template rendered with the company letterhead, proper page breaks, and print-optimized formatting. The document is ready for download and will remain accessible for 24 hours. This is an illustrative example—actual generation time and file size depend on your HTML complexity and embedded assets.

This showcases DocRaptor's core synchronous PDF generation from HTML. The Create Document tool blocks until rendering completes (typically 2-10 seconds), making it ideal for immediate-use documents under 5 MB. For larger documents or batch operations, use the async workflow instead. Requires API key authentication and consumes one document credit per generation.

@DocRaptor generate Excel spreadsheets from our last 5 customer order confirmations and summarize the total revenue across all orders

I've created 5 Excel spreadsheets from your order confirmation HTML and analyzed the revenue data: **Generated Spreadsheets:** 1. Order_10234_Acme_Corp.xlsx (12 line items, $8,450) 2. Order_10235_TechStart_Inc.xlsx (8 line items, $3,200) 3. Order_10236_Global_Solutions.xlsx (15 line items, $12,750) 4. Order_10237_Innovate_LLC.xlsx (6 line items, $2,100) 5. Order_10238_Enterprise_Co.xlsx (22 line items, $18,900) **Revenue Summary:** Total across 5 orders: $45,400 Average order value: $9,080 Largest order: $18,900 (Enterprise_Co) All spreadsheets are formatted with your standard order template and include itemized pricing, tax calculations, and payment terms. This illustrative example shows how DocRaptor's XLS/XLSX generation pairs with AI analysis.

This example combines DocRaptor's Excel generation capability with AI reasoning to extract business insights. The Create Document tool supports both XLS and XLSX formats from HTML tables. Each spreadsheet generation counts as one API call and document credit. Be mindful of rate limits when processing batches—consider the async workflow for 10+ documents to avoid timeout issues.

When DocRaptor beats manual PDF exports for deal velocity

A 6-person sales team closes 40-60 deals monthly, each needing a custom contract PDF with pricing tables and legal clauses pulled from Salesforce. DocRaptor's synchronous Create Document tool wins here because it converts HTML templates to PDFs in under 3 seconds—fast enough to generate contracts during live calls. The async tools matter less at this volume; you'd use Create Async Document only if batching 200+ contracts overnight. The API key auth is simple enough for a junior dev to wire into your CRM in an afternoon. If your contracts need e-signatures immediately after generation, DocRaptor pairs cleanly with DocuSign's API. This setup cuts contract turnaround from 2 hours to 2 minutes, which directly shortens your sales cycle.

How async document creation handles scheduled bulk exports

A 3-person finance team sends 120 custom P&L reports to franchise owners on the first of each month, each with unique data tables and charts rendered from accounting software. DocRaptor's Create Hosted Async Document tool is the right call because it queues all 120 jobs, returns status URLs, and lets you poll completion without blocking your script. The hosted output means recipients get direct download links instead of email attachments. If your reports are under 20 pages and your HTML templates are clean, expect 90-second average generation time per document. The List Documents tools help you audit which reports failed or need regeneration. This approach breaks down if reports exceed 100 pages or include complex CSS—DocRaptor's rendering engine struggles with nested flexbox layouts over 50 elements deep.

When referrer-based auth simplifies one-off PDF snapshots

A 4-person support team needs to archive resolved tickets as PDFs for compliance audits, generating 15-25 exports weekly from their Zendesk instance. DocRaptor's Create Document from Referrer tool works if your ticketing system already renders HTML views at stable URLs—you register your domain once, then call the endpoint without managing API keys in your support workflow. This matters for non-technical support leads who trigger exports manually. The trade-off: referrer auth only works for public or session-authenticated URLs, so if your tickets are behind OAuth or VPN, you'll need the standard API key flow instead. At this volume, synchronous creation is fine; you'd only switch to async if exporting 100+ tickets in a single batch. This setup takes 20 minutes to configure and eliminates the 'email me a PDF' Slack requests.
