Introduction

The markup burners REST API allows your application to “burn” markup into a document, producing a new PDF with annotations applied.

For application development in.NET, we recommend using the PrizmDoc Server .NET SDK instead of the REST API. See the .NET SDK How to Guides for examples of how to perform markup burning and redaction with the.NET SDK.

Available URLs

POST /PCCIS/V1/MarkupBurner

Creates and starts a new MarkupBurner.

NOTE: CAD files are not supported.

NOTE: When applying redactions, PDF annotations are never removed.

A MarkupBurner represents a process that runs on the server to "burn" markup into a document. The "burning" process makes the markup definitions a permanent part of a document. The server process is started by this request then a response is sent. Use the [GET /PCCIS/V1/MarkupBurner/{processId}] URL below to get the status and results of an in-progress or completed MarkupBurner process.

The input required to create a MarkupBurner is two WorkFile objects; one representing the JSON or XML which defines the markup to burn, the other representing the source document on which to burn the markup. Refer to the work file API topic for more information.

A new document is created that contains the burned-in markup. The source document will not be modified. The new document will be made available by a new WorkFile ID.

By default, MarkupBurner objects will be automatically deleted 20 minutes after they are created.

GET /PCCIS/V1/MarkupBurner/{processId}

Gets the status and result of an existing MarkupBurner.

Requests can be sent to this URL repeatedly while state is "processing".

When state is "complete", the new document with burned-in annotations will be made available by a new WorkFile ID in the output.documentFileId. Refer to the work file API topic to find out how to download a WorkFile.

If the markup burning process encountered an error, the state property will be "error", the errorCode property will contain an error code string and output will be null.

POST /PCCIS/V1/ViewingSession/u{viewingSessionId}/MarkupBurner

Starts a new MarkupBurner using the source document of a viewing session and a provided markup data as input. When the asynchronous process is ultimately finished, the output will be a new document which includes the provided markup as part of the document itself (the original source document of the viewing session is left unaltered).

This is a specialized URL which allows you to do markup burning against the source file of an existing viewing session without needing to use the work file API.

This request merely begins the markup burning process. Once started, you poll the status of the process using the [GET /PCCIS/V1/ViewingSession/u{viewingSessionId}/MarkupBurner/{processId}] URL below to know when the process has completed.

GET /PCCIS/V1/ViewingSession/u{viewingSessionId}/MarkupBurner/{processId}

Gets the status of a MarkupBurner for a viewing session.

Requests are typically sent to this URL repeatedly as long as the state is "processing".

When state is "complete", a new document with the provided markup burned into it will be available at:

[GET /PCCIS/V1/ViewingSession/u{viewingSessionId}/MarkupBurner/{processId}/Document]

If an error occurred and the output could not be created, the state property will be "error" and the errorCode property will contain an error code string.

Request

Response Body

If successful, a JSON object which may contain:

• processId (String) The id of the process.
• state (String) The current state of the process. The following values are allowed:
  • "processing" - The markup burning is in progress.
  • "complete" - The markup burning is completed.
  • "error" - The markup burning returns an error.
• percentComplete (Integer) The percentage (0 – 100) complete of the process.
• errorCode (String) An error code string if a problem occurred during processing.
