Generate PDFs and images with APITemplate.io from templates, HTML, Markdown or a URL.
The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi
Hosted APITemplate.io server that lets an assistant generate PDFs and images from templates, HTML, Markdown or a web page, and list generated files.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fapitemplate/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

}Use APITemplate.io from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — templates and generated objects, plus PDF and image generation from templates, HTML, Markdown or a URL. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own APITemplate.io credentials.

limitformatoffsetgroup_nametemplate_idGet PDF template source
One PDF template's HTML body, CSS and print settings (the vendor marks this endpoint experimental, so it can answer with an error for some accounts or image templates). Read-only. GET /v2/get-template.
template_idrequiredList generated files
List the PDFs and images generated so far, newest first: transaction_ref, template_id, type (PDF, JPEG or MERGE), your meta reference, the hosted file URLs (primary_url, secondary_url for the PNG) and dates. Files already deleted or expired have deletion_status set. Read-only. GET /v2/list-objects.
