API Testing & Webhook Setup
Follow these steps to test the PDF2ZUGFeRD API and configure your webhook endpoint
Postman Instructions
Click the Import button in Postman (top left). Select the downloaded JSON file. The collection will now appear in your Collections sidebar.
In Collections, expand the imported collection. Click on the POST request named something like Convert PDF to ZUGFeRD.
Go to the Body tab in the request. Locate the base64Data field (it will have placeholder data). Replace the sample Base64 string with your own Base64-encoded PDF invoice data. You can use an online converter like base64encode.org to encode your PDF file.
Still in the Body tab, find the webhookUrl field. Replace the placeholder URL with your actual webhook endpoint URL. This URL will receive the converted invoice data. If you don't have a webhook URL yet, see the Webhook Setup section below for instructions on creating one.
Once you've updated the base64Data and webhookUrl, click the Send button in Postman. You should receive a 200 OK response with a message indicating that your request has been queued for processing.
The API processes your invoice in the background. Once complete, the converted ZUGFeRD/XRechnung data will be sent to your configured webhook URL. Check your webhook endpoint to view the results.
If you encounter errors, check: Your Base64 data is valid and correctly formatted. Your webhook URL is active and accessible. You have proper authentication credentials configured in Postman (if required).
