Quick Start - Get Started with Compression API in 5 Minutes

curl -X POST https://api.uglypear.com/v1/compress \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" \
  -F "file=@document.pdf" \
  -F "quality=high"

Replace YOUR_API_KEY in the request with your actual API Key, file=@document.pdf points to the local file to compress, and the quality parameter can be low / medium / high.

import requests

url = "https://api.uglypear.com/v1/compress"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"}
files = {"file": open("document.pdf", "rb")}
data = {"quality": "high", "format": "pdf"}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, files=files, data=data)
result = response.json()
print(f"Compression complete, download link: {result['download_url']}")

const FormData = require('form-data');
const fs = require('fs');

const form = new FormData();
form.append('file', fs.createReadStream('document.pdf'));
form.append('quality', 'high');

fetch('https://api.uglypear.com/v1/compress', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY', ...form.getHeaders() },
  body: form
}).then(res => res.json()).then(data => console.log(data));
