Convert a document up to 8 MB to Markdown and return it directly. Pass the file as base64 in `content_base64`, or as a download link in `file`, and its name in `filename`. The extension decides the type: .pdf, .docx, .pptx, .xlsx, .html, .htm or .txt. Returns `markdown` and `meta` (`filename`, `length` in characters). PDFs come back as plain text without headings and without OCR. For scans, tables and page numbers, use `submit_conversion_job`. Works without an API key at the anonymous rate limit. Credits: 1 per call.
The file name with its extension (.pdf, .docx, .pptx, .xlsx, .html, .htm or .txt). The extension decides how the file is read.
The file as a download link, instead of `content_base64`. In ChatGPT, pass the user's uploaded file here. Other clients can set `download_url` to a public https URL.
The file content, base64-encoded. Up to 8 MB before encoding.

}Check a queued conversion job you submitted. Returns `job_id` and `status` (`queued`, `running`, `succeeded` or `failed`). A succeeded job includes the `markdown` when it is under 100 KB, otherwise a `result_url` to download it (also free). A failed job includes `error`, one sentence with the reason. Results are deleted 7 days after submission. An expired result is reported in `error`. Requires an API key. Credits: free. This tool is not metered.

}Queue a document up to 25 MB and 200 pages for conversion with OCR and tables. Pass the file as base64 in `content_base64`, or as a download link in `file`, and its name in `filename` (.pdf, .docx, .pptx, .xlsx, .html, .htm or .txt). Returns `job_id`, `status` and `result_url`. Call `get_conversion_job` with the `job_id` until `status` is `succeeded` or `failed`. A conversion may take up to about 2 minutes. Optional `webhook_url`: a public http or https URL that receives a POST with the job's final state. The request carries `X-Appkit-Signature: sha256=<hex>`, an HMAC-SHA256 of the raw body keyed with the returned `webhook_secret` (shown only once). 3 delivery attempts. Requires an API key. The credits are refunded if the job fails. The uploaded file is deleted when the job finishes. Results are kept for 7 days after submission. Credits: 10 per call.
