Use PDF Loft with Zapier and Make

Run PDF tools and react to finished runs from a Zap or a Make scenario.

Before you start

  • The PDF Loft apps for Zapier and Make are built but not yet published to the Zapier and Make directories, so they cannot be added from those directories today.
  • Until then, use the HTTP request and webhook steps of either service with an API key. The developer guide lists every route.

Run a tool with an API key

  1. In Developers, make an API key that may run tools and read runs. The key is shown only once.
  2. In Zapier or Make, add an HTTP request step that sends the key as a Bearer token. Upload the file, start the run and read the result as the developer guide shows.
  3. To start a Zap or scenario when a run finishes, add a webhook step and add its address as a webhook endpoint under Developers.
  4. Check the signature of each message before you trust it. The developer guide shows how.

Limits by plan

  • This needs the Team plan or above, because it uses the API and webhooks. Calls use the same tasks as the web apps, and a run that fails is not counted.
