Summary

Converts a file at a public URL to a selected format through the BulkConvert API. By default, downloads the converted file and attaches it to each output item as binary data.

Inputs

  • Source URL (required) — Public URL of the source file. Its extension is used to detect the source format.
  • Target Format (required) — Format to convert to: CSV, DOCX, FLAC, GIF, HTML, JPG, JSON, M4A, MD, MOBI, MOV, MP3, MP4, PDF, PNG, SVG, TAR, WAV, WebM, WebP, XLSX, or ZIP.
  • Download Converted File — Defaults to true. When enabled, downloads the file and attaches it as binary data; set the binary field name with Put Output File in Field. When disabled, returns the API response with the download URL.
  • Put Output File in Field (required) — Binary field name for the downloaded file; shown when Download Converted File is enabled. Defaults to data.

Output shape

One output item per input item, each containing the API response as JSON; when file download is enabled and the response includes a download URL, the item also contains the converted file as binary data.

The binary filename uses the filename returned by the API, or converted. if none is provided. Errors stop execution unless Continue On Fail is enabled, in which case an item with an error field is returned.
