PDF Api HubInstall

Summary

Splits a PDF from a public URL or an incoming binary property into individual pages, selected page groups, or a requested number of roughly equal chunks. Returns the split PDFs as hosted links, a base64 ZIP, or a binary ZIP.

Inputs

• Input Type — Choose URL (default) or Binary File as the PDF source.
• PDF URL — Public URL of the PDF to split; Google Drive share links are auto-converted. Shown when Input Type is URL.
• Binary Property Name — Name of the incoming binary property containing the PDF; defaults to data. Shown when Input Type is Binary File.
• Split Mode — Choose Each Page (default), Specific Pages, or Equal Chunks.
• Pages — Required for Specific Pages. Enter comma-separated page numbers or ranges, including open-ended ranges such as 5-; each comma group becomes a separate PDF.
• Number of Chunks — Required for Equal Chunks. Set 2–100 roughly equal parts; defaults to 2.
• Output Format — Choose hosted download links (default), a base64-encoded ZIP in JSON, or a raw binary ZIP.
• Output Filename — Filename for the output ZIP; defaults to pdf_split.zip, and .zip is appended if omitted.

Output shape

Depends on Output Format: hosted download URLs for the split PDFs and a ZIP, JSON containing a base64-encoded ZIP, or a binary ZIP file.

Hosted files are described as available for 30 days. File and Base64 formats return the split PDFs inside a ZIP.
