Convert DWG to JPG using Python REST API

This guide explains how to convert DWG to JPG using Python REST API. You will learn to transform a file from DWG to JPG using Python REST API with a Python-based Cloud SDK. This guide teaches you to create appropriate request for the API and perform the conversion with a single API call.

Prerequisite

Steps to Convert CAD to JPG using Python RESTful Service

  1. Instantiate CadApi with your App Key, App Sid, and the Aspose Cloud base URL to authenticate
  2. Decide which DWG/DXF you want to convert and where the resulting JPEG should be saved
  3. Read your CAD file into a stream/byte buffer so it’s ready to send to the service
  4. Wrap the drawing bytes in PutDrawingJpegRequest to tell the API you want a JPEG render
  5. Send the request using CadApi.PutDrawingJpeg to perform server-side rendering
  6. Capture the returned stream containing the rendered JPEG image
  7. Write the received JPEG stream to your chosen output path and confirm completion

These steps entail the process to convert DWG file to JPG using Python Low Code API. First, you connect to Aspose Cloud by authenticating with your keys and then pick the DWG/DXF file you’d like to convert along with the place you want the JPEG saved. After that, you send the file to the API for rendering, grab the returned JPEG stream, and save it to your output folder.
