Q: Create pdf from template with the URL source

Hi Jarek,

Hi, I'd like to create a template where I match placeholders with web page content to create a 'download pdf' automated option.

I imagine 2 ways of doing this:

1)Option 1 (preferrable): I create a custom template on your platform with placeholders for 'id's. I then would like to use your platform to fill a automated pdf with these ids from <div> containers from a webpage.

2)Option 2 - I extract a webpage into a json and then populate a pdf template from these json values.

Is either possible?

A: Sure, for Option 1, Documentero is unable to ready/scrap any webpages so it would not be possible just using our tool. You need to prepare data in JSON format and then pass as API request. I think Zapier/Make workflow / scenario where you using third party tool for scraping and Documentero action just to map data and generate document should work for you.
