Tools (12)

list_templatesList stored Carbone templates with filtering, search, and pagination. Filter by Template ID, Version ID, category, or upload origin. Use includeVersions to see the full version history of each template. Supports cursor-based pagination for large collections. Each result carries its `tags`: to find t
convert_documentConvert a document to another format without storing a template. Pure conversion: no data is sent, so Carbone tags such as {d.name} are kept as written; this is also how you proof a template in another format (DOCX template → PDF, or DOCX → ODT while it stays a template). The source file can be an H
render_documentGenerate a document by merging a Carbone template with JSON data. Two modes: (1) pass templateId to use a previously uploaded template; (2) pass template (an HTTPS URL or a base64-encoded string (local file paths are not accepted over HTTP)) to upload and render in a single request without storing a
inspect_templateList the Carbone tags a template uses and return a sample JSON dataset matching its structure. Call it before render_document when you do not know which data a template expects. Pass exactly one of templateId (a stored template: Template ID or Version ID) or template: an HTTPS URL or a base64-encode
list_categoriesList all template categories currently in use in your Carbone account. Categories act like folders for organising templates (e.g. "invoices", "legal", "hr"). Use the returned names as the category filter in list_templates or upload_template.
list_tagsList all tags currently used across templates in your Carbone account. Tags are free-form labels attached to templates (e.g. "sales", "billing", "v2"). To find the templates with a tag, call list_templates and keep the results whose `tags` include it.
upload_templateUpload and store a reusable Carbone template. Once uploaded, use render_document with the returned Template ID to generate documents from it. Supports versioning: multiple versions can live under a single stable Template ID, and rendering by Template ID uses the version with the most recent deployed
update_template_metadataUpdate the metadata of ONE stored template version: name, comment, category, tags, deployment (deployedAt), scheduled deletion (expireAt), or the Template ID it belongs to (moveToTemplateId). With a Template ID, Carbone patches its currently deployed version only; with a Version ID, that exact versi
delete_templateDelete a stored Carbone template. Takes effect immediately: the template is no longer listed, downloadable or renderable (404); the file itself is purged after the retention delay (Carbone Cloud: 24 hours). You can delete by Template ID (removes all versions) or by Version ID (removes only that spec
download_templateDownload the original source file of a stored Carbone template (e.g. the DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, or HTML file that was uploaded). Use this to inspect, edit, or back up a template. Pass a Template ID to download the currently deployed version, or a Version ID to download a specific version. Set sample: tru
get_api_statusCheck Carbone API health and version. Returns the current API version and a status message. Useful for verifying connectivity and confirming which Carbone version is active.
get_capabilitiesReturns a summary of all Carbone capabilities: supported formats, features, tool usage examples, and links to full documentation. Call this first if you are unsure what Carbone can do.
