Zapier

Use the RelayPDF Zapier app when the workflow already lives in Zapier. Actions return a File field Gmail, Drive, and Slack can attach. Convert File and Raster PDF wait on async jobs via Zapier callbacks.

Search RelayPDF in the Zap editor after the private invite (directory listing follows Zapier review). Connect with a pdf_live_ key. Connection test calls GET /v1/account and is not billed.

Connect

Dashboard → API keys. Paste pdf_live_… with no Bearer prefix. Failed steps are not billed.

Actions

Create PDF accepts HTML, URL, Markdown, or a published template. Convert File maps a Zapier File to POST /v1/convert. Merge, extract, protect, barcodes, and zip are first-class actions. Long convert/raster jobs use response=async and callbackUrl.
