Third-Party Integration
At JPDFConvert, we recognize that users often work across a variety of tools, platforms, and workflows. To address these diverse needs, we are developing seamless integration capabilities that connect our browser-based PDF conversion engine to your favorite services. These integrations are not simply about convenience—they are designed to support productivity, enhance data security, and reduce friction in professional environments.
Our integration strategy focuses on three key areas: cloud storage, productivity platforms, and developer APIs.
1. Cloud Storage Platforms
JPDFConvert is preparing built-in support for major cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive. This will allow users to connect their accounts securely, select files directly from the cloud, and instantly convert them without needing to download or re-upload. All operations will still take place locally in the browser, using tokenized authentication to ensure your credentials remain private.
2. Productivity Suites
Many users work with document platforms like Google Docs, Notion, or Microsoft Office Online. Future integrations will allow direct export to PDF from within these environments using JPDFConvert’s engine. This offers the benefit of our privacy-first approach while maintaining compatibility with modern collaborative tools.
3. Developer Access & APIs
We understand that businesses and tech teams want to embed conversion functionality within their own systems. Our upcoming JavaScript SDK will provide programmatic access to PDF conversion directly within custom web applications. Developers will be able to customize the user interface, control output formatting, and embed secure conversion workflows without transmitting files to external servers.
All integrations will be opt-in, require clear user permissions, and maintain our core promise: no file will be uploaded to a server. Integration features are being designed with a security-first mindset, with a clear user interface that prioritizes transparency and control.
JPDFConvert’s approach to integration is not about centralizing data—it’s about empowering users to control their documents across any ecosystem, while staying secure and private. Whether you're an individual freelancer or a large organization, our integrations are being built to adapt to your workflow.
Integration Architecture and Security
Every integration is built on a modular architecture with secure authentication flows (OAuth 2.0 and PKCE where applicable). By isolating the conversion process from third-party APIs, we ensure that sensitive file data never leaves the user’s device. Token lifecycles are minimized, and permissions are granular—grant access only to the specific files or folders you choose.
Offline-Capable Integrations
Some integrations, such as connecting to a local NAS or intranet service, will work offline. This allows organizations with strict air-gapped environments to integrate JPDFConvert without breaking compliance. Local network integrations use the same browser-based processing model as our standard tool.
Custom Workflow Hooks
For enterprises, we plan to offer hook points where PDF output can be auto-routed to internal systems—such as DMS (Document Management Systems), CRM platforms, or secure archives—without human intervention. These hooks will respect zero-upload privacy, with all transformations and routing scripts running locally or in trusted on-premise environments.
Developer SDK Features
- Embed our conversion UI or build your own using exposed API endpoints.
- Control page size, orientation, compression, and metadata programmatically.
- Trigger automatic conversions after file uploads in your application.
- Integrate with authentication providers to maintain session continuity.
Future Integration Possibilities
Potential upcoming partners include project management tools (Trello, Asana), note-taking apps (Evernote, Obsidian), and collaboration platforms (Slack, Teams). Each will follow our same privacy-first approach, meaning the conversion still happens locally, even if initiated from inside another app.
Best Practices for Using Integrations
- Use integration accounts with least-privilege permissions.
- Periodically review and revoke unused API tokens.
- Test workflows in a sandbox before deploying to production environments.
- Document your integration settings for repeatability and auditing.
By combining these integrations with JPDFConvert’s in-browser architecture, you get the convenience of working across platforms without sacrificing privacy, security, or performance.
