Convert anything using MERGE-STREAMS


The API for converting any file using MERGE-STREAMS.

Here you can see all available conversion options which you can use within the "options" section of conversions (see the example JSON below the table).

Here you can see all available conversion options which you can use within the "options" section of conversions (see the example JSON on the right).

Option Name Description
allow_multiple_outputs
Type: boolean
Default: False
If the operation produces more than one output file, by default all of them are compressed in just one file. Set this option to true if you want a download link for each file.
allow_multiple_outputs_threshold
Type: integer
Minimum: 2
Maximum: 400
Sets the threshold for the number of output files during conversion. This option is considered only when `allow_multiple_outputs` is set to true. If the generated output files exceed this threshold, they are compressed into one file. Conversely, if the threshold is not met, each output file remains uncompressed.
