Let's dive in 👇

Steps involved in using our API

You need to generate your API key from your developer page to call our API endpoints (Note: you need to be on Ultimate or Enterprise plan to get your API key)
In order to chat with any PDF you need to have a docId of it
To get the docId, upload the PDF using a file or a URL. Or, if the file is uploaded via the web portal, the docId is the last part of the URL

After you get the docId use that in your summary or chat endpoints to get the summary or responses to your questions by sending a message
If you no longer want to chat with a PDF, then you can remove the PDF using its docId through delete endpoint.
