API Tokens

API tokens allow you to authenticate requests to the PDF UA Kit API. Tokens are scoped to your team and can be granted specific abilities. Navigate to Settings > API Tokens to manage them.

Creating a Token

Click Create Token, enter a name, and select the abilities the token should have:

Ability Description
pdf:create Convert HTML to accessible PDF
pdf:validate Validate PDF files against PDF/UA standards
xinvoice:create Generate XInvoice (ZUGFeRD / Factur-X) documents
member:invite Invite new members to the team
member:remove Remove members from the team

After creation, the token is displayed once. Copy it immediately — it cannot be retrieved later.

Using a Token

Include the token in the Authorization header of every API request:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN

For full endpoint documentation, see the interactive API reference.

Revoking Tokens

Delete a token from the table to revoke it immediately. Any API requests using that token will start returning 401 Unauthorized.
