- List templates
Lists every template available in your pdf noodle account, with each template's id and display name.
- Merge PDFs
Combine two or more publicly accessible PDF files into a single PDF, merged in the order given. Returns a temporary download link to the merged file, or a request id to check later when the merge runs in the background.
- Split PDF
Split a single PDF into multiple smaller PDFs by page ranges or regular intervals.
- Update PDF metadata
Updates the embedded metadata (title, author, subject, keywords and more) of a PDF at a public URL and returns a link to the updated file. The original PDF content is preserved.
No trigger or action matches that. Ask your agent to add it: it reads the API documentation and builds what you describe.
