A webhook that returns a PDF
An HTTP trigger receives files, a KovaPDF action merges them, and the workflow answers with the link.

Examples
Workflows people build
Check signed documents
Check the signatures in each signed PDF and stop the workflow when one is not valid.
Mix with your own code
Use a KovaPDF action next to a code step that reads the result's report.
Pages in a new order
Reorder, rotate or delete pages before a document is sent on.
Limits and privacy
What to expect
Your account's usual limits
Each step runs as the KovaPDF account the key belongs to and uses that account's usual limits, the same as on the website.
Files deleted within an hour
Files you send and the results are deleted within an hour. Results come back as download links that stop working soon after; ask again for a fresh one.
Keep the key in the app's credentials
Paste your API key only into the app's own credentials or connection screen, never into a step's text. You can revoke a key in your dashboard and it stops on the next call.
Says where the work was done
Every result says it was done with KovaPDF, so whoever reads it later knows which tool changed the file.
Questions
Questions about KovaPDF and Pipedream
Can I call KovaPDF from a code step instead?
Yes. Use the JavaScript or Python package in a code step, with the key kept in an environment variable.
What happens when my account reaches its limit?
The action stops with a clear message and the time to try again, the same limit you would meet on the website.
How do I disconnect it?
Remove the connected account in Pipedream, and revoke its key in your KovaPDF dashboard.
What happens if KovaPDF pauses this app?
The step stops with a plain message saying KovaPDF has paused connections from this app for now, and nothing is changed. You can still use every tool on the KovaPDF website.
