FreeConvert.com API v1.0.5
Scroll down for code samples, example requests and responses. Select a language for code samples from the tabs above or the mobile navigation menu.
Welcome to FreeConvert.com API V1! On this documentation you will find how to send API requests to convert, merge, or optimize your files using FreeConvert.com.
Our API uses API keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API keys in the User Dashboard.
Your API keys can be used to consume your account credits, so be sure to keep them secure! Do not share your secret API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, and so forth.
All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail. API requests to protected routes without authentication will also fail.

Getting Started
FreeConvert.com is an online tool to convert audio, video, image, or document files.
Simply drag and drop your files, convert and download/export the file. There is no software to install or account registrations.
Most of our file conversions have advanced options for you to control the output file. For example:
- Audio conversions (cut audio, select audio codec, bit rate, select channels..etc)
- Video conversions (cut video, select target audio/video codec, bit rate, video aspect ratio, and resolution)
- Image conversions (set image dimensions, compression level)
- Document conversions (Set orientation, margins, compression level)
This guide leads you through a typical implementation of the FreeConvert API. It contains creating a task, job and handling the result. For more in depth documentation please use the menu on the left to directly jump to specific api endpoints. Please refer to API code examples for more use cases.
Terminology
Tasks
Tasks are individual activities you can perform in FreeConvert.
Import Tasks
Import tasks are used to upload files into FreeConvert for using them later in other tasks. Example: Downloading files from device, URL or a S3 bucket. FreeConvert stores the imported files only for 4 hours. See Import Files from left menu to find different ways to import files into FreeConvert.
Processing Tasks
Processing tasks are used to perform file transformation activities in FreeConvert. Processing tasks subjects the files imported by Import tasks into modification according to the type of the processing task. See Convert, Compress and Merge operations from left menu to find more info.
Export Tasks
Export tasks are used to export one or multiple output files from FreeConvert, for example by generating public URLs or by storing them on your S3 bucket. See Export Files from left menu to find different ways to export files from FreeConvert.
Jobs
Job is a collection of tasks. A job can have import tasks, processing tasks and export tasks defining a workflow that FreeConvert should follow. For example, The first task of a job could be importing the file from your device. The second task could be converting this file into a different format and the final task of the job could be exporting the file to a S3 bucket or exporting the download URL.
It's also possible to have multiple processing tasks and multiple export tasks within a single job. This is useful if you want to convert a file and create a thumbnail at the same time, for example.
We can convert a file using a Job in which we define all the tasks that the Job is comprised of. Or we can execute individual tasks step by step. Following sections explain how to execute individual tasks before explaining how to submit a Job containing multiple tasks.

If you want to upload a file from your device storage, you have to use the import/upload API endpoint. This is a two-step process.
The first request will provide you a response which contains details about uploading the actual file from your device. The response contains the url that the file must be uploaded to and other paramaters that should be submitted.
The second request is to actually upload the file using the information we got from the first request. Please see API code examples for more examples of this.

If uploading a file directly from a URL, it will take only one step. FreeConvert will fetch the file from the URL you have specified in the url field.
We have a bunch of other options available for importing files into FreeConvert.

In this example, we convert an imported file from jpg to png. We must provide the import task id as the input so FreeConvert will use that imported file for the conversion.
You can get the possible conversion formats for an operation from the following API endpoint: GET /query/view/options
See Tasks > List Operations from the left menu to find the parameters and the use of this endpoint.
Most of our file conversions have advanced options that let you control the output file. You'll get the possible advanced options for a specific input and output combination including the hints.

In this example, we are going to compress an imported jpg file. We must provide the import task id as the input so FreeConvert will use that imported file for the compression.
Depending on the input file format, we have different kinds of compression options, which is a part of our advanced options that let you control the output file. You'll get the possible advanced options for a specific input and output combination including the hints.

We are going to merge two (or as many as you want) imported or converted image files (jpg, png, etc...) into a single PDF or GIF file. We must provide the task ids as the input so FreeConvert will use those files for the merge task.
You can use this merge task according to your needs.
For example, say you have several files and the only requirement is to merge those into a single PDF or GIF. In this case, all you need to do is just upload or import those files into FreeConvert and then start the merge task by including the import task ids from the previous step.
If you also need to decrease the size of your input files before merging them, then you have to perform one more step which is the compress task before starting the merge task.
In summary, all the tasks in FreeConvert are independent from each other, you can decide the flow and order of tasks as you want.
FreeConvert also supports a few advanced options while merging files, right now we only allow merging images and pdf files.

Like import files, we have several ways to export a file from FreeConvert. Here, we're going to use export/url in order to retrieve a download link to the converted file.
We have a bunch of other options available for exporting files into FreeConvert.

Instead of executing Tasks individually as shown earlier, we can define the whole conversion process using a single Job. The Job shown here defines three tasks.
- Import a jpg file from a specified URL.
- Convert the file to png format.
- Export a download URL.

FreeConvert supports some outstanding advanced options in terms of converting, compressing, and merging files that make us the number one file converter in the web world. We are now making them available to our API users as well.
From the advanced options endpoint, you can generate all the possible options based on your operation and file types. Here, we'll share an example of how to use those options.
Let's say, you want to convert a JPG to a PDF. Now if you make a GET request to our convert advanced options API like below:
https://api.freeconvert.com/v1/query/options/convert?input_format=jpg&output_format=pdf
Then you'll get a response like this:
From this response, we can see an array named options that includes all the possible advanced options for your operation. Each options contains some common fields.
name- The name of the option that should be specified in the job.hint- The use case of the option.data_type- Data type that our engine allows for this option.default_value- If the option is not included in the job, this value will be used.
We can see another field type: enum when the data_type is a string but only allow some specific values. In that case, you can also see the enum_values field that will give you a list of the possible values for that option.
Some of the options require certain conditions to be met to be effective. On the example response, enlarge_images_to_fit option requires one of the values of pdf_page_size to also be included in the job. Conditions can include:
name- Name of the other option that this option is dependent on.meta- What are the values that the condition option must have, in order for the dependent option to be effective.required- Whether the condition option must be included in the job or not. If this isfalse, that means the dependent option can exist on its own. However, if the condition option is also present in the job, then it must have one of the values specified in condition meta.
Now let's say I want to convert my JPG file to PDF, and I want the PDF page to be A4 in size and I need images in original size without scaling. So, my options that should be specified in the job will be like:
{ pdf_page_size: "1240.2x1753.95", enlarge_images_to_fit: false }
Errors
This section is to introduce to users possible errors and response codes that our API returns.
Response Codes:
FreeConvert.com API responds with the following standard HTTP status codes when encountered with an error:
| Error Code | Meaning |

| 409 | Already exists -- You're requesting to create something that already exists. |
| 429 | Too Many Requests -- You're sending too many requests. |
| 500 | Internal Server Error -- We had a problem with our server. Try again later. |
Rate Limits
FreeConvert API is rate limited. If your API requests are rate limited, you will receive a 429 HTTP response code.
Error Info
If a Job or Task has a status failed we provide additional info about the error in errorCode and msg(optional) attributes of the Job's or Task's result object.
// errorCode indicated on Task or Job object
{
....
result: {
errorCode: 'specific error code',
msg: 'additional message about the error'
}
...
}
Possible errorCodes of Task:
| errorCode | Meaning |
|---|---|
| upload_timeout | File upload timeout exceeded. |
| engine_timeout | Conversion timeout exceeded due to our internal server issue. |
| out_of_conversion_minutes | Available conversion minutes are finished for this user. |
| out_of_conversion_minutes_per_task | Available conversion minutes are finished for this task. |
| user_deleted_task | Task failed due to the deletion operation of the user. |
| insufficient_permission | Task failed due to insufficient permission. |
| invalid_credentials | Task failed due to invalid credentials. |
| processing_failed | Task failed due to internal process failure. |
A job can fail if one of its tasks is failed/canceled/deleted.
Possible errorCodes of Job:
| errorCode | Meaning |
|---|---|
| task_failed | Job failed due to the failure of one of its task. |
| task_deleted | Job failed due to the deletion of one of its task. |
| task_canceled | Job failed due to the cancelation of one of its task. |
Authentication
- HTTP Authentication, scheme: bearer
Every request to a protected route in FreeConvert API must include an API Key so that we can identify you. Once you have signed up for an account, you can generate an API key by visiting the API keys page from
your User Dashboard.
API requests are authenticated using the Authorization: Bearer API_KEY in the header.
API keys do not expire unless you delete them.

Tasks
Tasks are the building blocks of FreeConvert.com API. A job, such as converting a file, usually involves several tasks. For example, for a file conversion job, you would typically create a file import task, convert task, and finally an export task.
Different tasks have their own API endpoints. For example, for converting a file you can use the convert task endpoint.

POST /process/import/upload
Creates an upload task to submit one file to FreeConvert.com. You can also use this method to directly send your user's files to FreeConvert without storing them on your application. See Getting Started - Import file from device
For example, you could use the form object in the result key of the response to allow browser-based file uploading.
Here is a Form Upload Example (in the right panel) on how to utilize the url and other post parameters from our response to create a file upload form. Please see API code examples for more.
Form Upload Example
<form action="https://server1.freeconvert.com/api/upload/5ff3e7337e69c10060706883/"
method="POST"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="signature" value="46d0fab9c3534661">
<input type="file" name="file">
<input type="submit">
</form>
IMPORTANT parameters (both keys and values) are dynamically generated. Do not hardcode them in your application.
Task status change to completed as soon as the upload finishes.

Webhooks
Webhook lets you receive status updates for your jobs and tasks. You can create webhooks using the User Dashboard
Events
| event | description |
|---|---|
job.created |
Emitted upon creating a new job |
job.success |
Emitted when a job completes successfully. |
job.failed |
Emits when a job has failed. |
In all 3 cases, the payload includes the Job. See an example on the right side.
Failing Webhooks
If your webhook endpoint returns a 4XX or 5XX HTTP status code, we will re-try sending the webhook event up to 3 times (in 30-minute intervals. If you have enabled the "Webhook unreachable" notification from your user dashboard, we will also send you an email when a webhook fails.
If the webhook endpoint returns 410 status code, we will automatically disable this webhook. You can always re-enable it manually from the User Dashboard.
Signing Webhooks
For verifying that the webhook is actually coming from FreeConvert.com, you should validate it. When we send a webhook, we cryptographically sign it using a unique signing secret use this key to make sure the webhook is coming from us. You can get this secret by clicking the edit icon next to your webhook.
The FreeConvert-Signature header contains a hash-based message authentication code (HMAC) with SHA-256. Here is a PHP example on how to calculate this signature for validation:
$signature = hash_hmac('sha256', $payload, $signingSecret);
$signingSecret can be found in the user dashboard's webhook settings (Click show on the SECRET column of the webhook). $payload is the full request body (the JSON string) that we sent to your webhook endpoint.

Socket
Code samples
const socket = io("https://notification.freeconvert.com/", {
transports: ["websocket"],
path: "/socket.io",
auth: { token: `Bearer ${YOUR_TOKEN_HERE}` },
});
//for subscribe job and task
socket.emit("subscribe", `job.{jobId}`);
socket.emit("subscribe", `task.{taskId}`);
//for unsubscribe job and task
socket.emit("unsubscribe", `job.{jobId}`);
socket.emit("unsubscribe", `task.{taskId}`);
socket.on("task_started", (data) => {
console.log("task_started", data);
});
socket.on("job_started", (data) => {
console.log("job_started", data);
});
If you would like to receive real-time updates of your tasks and jobs, you can use FreeConvert.com Socket API. The hostname for Socket.io updates is notification.freeconvert.com. Socket.io clients are available in Javascript and many other languages. Please see API code examples.
To join a channel, you must authorize using the Authorization: Bearer API_KEY as shown to the right.
Note:
When you initiate a job with the Create job API, you would receive real-time updates of your tasks and jobs via WebSocket. In rare cases, an export job may become completed even before you have subscribed to WebSocket. To avoid this you may call the Get job API once after the WebSocket subscription just to check if the job has finished and have the result ready.
The best practice would be to check if the socket returns the expected url value just after the subscription. If not call the Get job API once and manually check the value. If the GET API doesn’t return the url, the job is still processing.
Websocket Channels & Events
| Channel | description | available event |
|---|---|---|
| job.{jobId} | Get job update related event | job_started job_failed job_completed |
| task.{taskId} | Task related all event | task_started task_completed task_failed task_min_update |
| user.{userId}.jobs | User job releted event | job_started job_failed job_completed |
| user.{userId}.tasks | User task releted event | task_started task_completed task_failed task_min_update |
