XLS to HTML API Sample & Demo
I’ll be using this sample XLS file below for this demo.
We’ll be using those different sample code snippets below for this demo. They can convert the Sample XLS File above into HTML.
The final result would look like this.
Before we proceed with the code. Let us first check the /v1/xls/convert/to/html parameters and its uses.
Endpoint
| URL: | https://api.pdf.co/v1/xls/convert/to/html |
| Method: | POST |
| Parameter | Description |

| name | optional. Output file name. |
| profiles | optional. Must be a String. Set custom configuration. See profiles examples here |
Now we are ready to write some codes.
