This workflow provides an automated solution for generating PDFs and barcodes using Api2Pdf’s AWS Lambda-powered API, integrated seamlessly with n8n. The primary goal of this setup is to convert various sources—like URLs, raw HTML, or Office documents—into PDF files, and to generate QR codes and barcodes, all via a programmable MCP (Master Control Panel) trigger.

The workflow starts with a dedicated MCP trigger, which acts as a webhook endpoint for external AI agents or applications. This trigger receives requests and uses several HTTP Request nodes to call Api2Pdf APIs. These calls include converting web pages (via URL), raw HTML, or Office documents into PDFs. Additionally, it can merge PDFs or convert HTML and URLs using wkhtmltopdf, as well as generate barcodes or QR codes with ZXING.

Each process is controlled by well-structured nodes that include dynamic parameter population through AI expressions, facilitating flexible and customized PDF or barcode generation. The setup also provides instructions for configuring authentication with API keys, enabling secure and scalable automation.

This workflow is practical for scenarios like automating report generation, document archiving, barcode creation for inventory systems, or any automation requiring dynamic PDF or barcode creation on demand, all integrated within WordPress or other platforms.
