Spreadsheet Converter API Tutorial

Welcome to the Spreadsheet Converter API! This tutorial will guide you through the steps needed to integrate this powerful tool into your applications, enabling you to convert spreadsheet files between various formats effortlessly.

Prerequisites

• API Key: Obtain an API key from RapidAPI to authenticate your requests. This key ensures secure access to our services.
• HTTP Client: While this tutorial uses curl for demonstration, our API is compatible with any programming environment that supports HTTP requests, such as Python, JavaScript, NodeJS, Java, Clojure, Dart and more!

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Configure API Headers

Ensure you have the correct API headers ready for your requests:

• X-RapidAPI-Host: Set this to spreadsheet-converter-tool1.p.rapidapi.com.
• X-RapidAPI-Key: Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your actual API key from RapidAPI.

Step 2: Prepare Your Request

The following curl example demonstrates how to structure your API request. Adapt this command to suit your programming language or tool:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://spreadsheet-converter-tool1.p.rapidapi.com/api/v1/convert/calc \
  --header 'X-RapidAPI-Host: spreadsheet-converter-tool1.p.rapidapi.com' \
  --header 'X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE' \
  --header 'content-type: multipart/form-data' \
  --form 'file=@/path_to_your_file/filename.ext' \
  --form 'extensionTo=desired_extension'

• file: Replace /path_to_your_file/filename.ext with the path to the spreadsheet file you want to convert.
• extensionTo: Replace desired_extension with the file format you want as the output.

Step 3: Execute and Handle the Response

• Execute the Request: Run the curl command from your terminal or integrate the HTTP request into your application.
• Handle the Response: Implement appropriate error handling and response parsing depending on your application’s requirements.
