Representative actions

  • Create Document

    Tool to create a Document. Use when you need to instantiate a PDF from a template; set status='pending' to queue immediate generation. Ensure valid `document_template_id` is provided.

  • Create Document Sync

    Tool to create a document and wait for generation to finish. Use when immediate PDF is needed.

  • Create Template

Typical workflow: Create template → Preview with draft content → Publish → Generate documents. The template supports Liquid templating syntax (e.g., {{variable_name}}) for dynamic content injection. Only 'identifier' is required; all other fields have sensible defaults.

  • Delete Document

    Tool to delete a Document by its ID. Use when you need to permanently remove a document after confirming its ID. Returns 204 No Content on success.

  • Delete PDFMonkey Document Template

    Tool to delete a document template by ID. Use when you need to remove obsolete templates after validation.
