    "source": {
        "type": "document",
        "fileName": "sample.doc",
        "documentId": "unT67Fxekm8lk1p0kPnyg8"
    },

            "pageNumber": "5"

}

Error Responses

If you are self-hosting PAS and a GET request does not include the correct Accusoft-Secret header value, you will receive an error like the one below. See PAS Configuration for more info about configuring your PAS secretKey.

HTTP/1.1 403 InvalidSecret
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "errorCode": "InvalidSecret"
}

GET /v2/viewingPackages/{documentId}/creator

Gets the processId of the viewingPackageCreator which created this viewing package if it still exists.

This URL is useful when you create a viewing session with a documentId (allowing PAS to automatically start a viewingPackageCreator for you in the background if no viewing package exists yet) and you want to check the status of the viewingPackageCreator which PAS may have created on your behalf. After creating a viewing session with a documentId, you can use this URL to see if any associated viewingPackageCreator exists. If it does, you can then use the returned viewingPackageCreatorId to GET more info about the status of the viewingPackageCreator that PAS started for you.
