Developers and the API

• Get an API key

  The API is on the Business plan, and keys are shown once.

• Send your first document through the API

  Upload one file with a key, and read the result.

• Receive webhooks

  Be told when something happens, instead of asking.

• API rate limits and errors

  How many requests a minute, and what comes back when something goes wrong.

• Build an app people connect

  OAuth for an app that acts for someone, with their consent.

• Connect an AI assistant

  Give Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor read access to your records through the Model Context Protocol.

• Use the command line and client libraries

  Install the CLI or a client library from papertotal.com/developers.

• Get help with the API
