What can you do with CloudConvert on Tray.ai?
CloudConvert is a file conversion service that turns documents, images, audio, video, and other files from one format into another through a web app or API. Tray.ai connects to CloudConvert through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the CloudConvert API alongside the rest of your stack.
- Convert files with CloudConvert when a new document arrives in your cloud storage, saving a PDF copy.
- When CloudConvert sends “Job finished”, save the converted file to your document storage.
- When CloudConvert sends “Job failed”, alert the team that owns the document process.
- Merge files with CloudConvert to turn signed pages into one PDF for your records.
- Connects through
- HTTP Connector
- Authentication
- A bearer token or OAuth 2.0
- Base URL
- https://api.cloudconvert.com/v2
Set it up
Connect CloudConvert to Tray.ai
Each step uses CloudConvert's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Save CloudConvert's API token
Save the token CloudConvert issues as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client sends it as a bearer token on every call. The token stays out of the workflow and out of the logs.
Step 2
Point the HTTP Client at the API
Add an HTTP Client step and use https://api.cloudconvert.com/v2 as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from CloudConvert's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.
Step 3
Start with “Get a job”
It's one of 16 documented actions, under Jobs. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Start workflows from CloudConvert events
Give CloudConvert the URL of a Tray.ai webhook trigger. “Job created” can then start a workflow, and so can 2 other events.
What the CloudConvert API covers
4 resources and 16 documented actions, each one a call the HTTP Connector can make from a Tray.ai workflow. Connecting it takes a few clicks: here's how.
