This concise tutorial demonstrates how to convert HTML to DOCX using the Java REST API. You’ll learn to automatically transform HTML into a Word DOCX file via a Java‑based Cloud SDK, and see how to select the source file from either local storage or Cloud storage to suit your workflow.
Prerequisite
- Create an account and get API credentials for converting the HTML file to a DOCX file
- Download Aspose.HTML Cloud SDK for Java to transform an HTML file to a Word DOCX file
- Set up a Java project with the above SDK
Steps to Convert HTML File to DOCX using Java-based API
- Add the Cloud.Sdk and Cloud.Sdk.Conversion namespaces so you can use the conversion features
- Create an HtmlApi object with your Client ID and Client Secret, then access its ConvertApi property
- Use the FromLocalFile() and ToLocalFile() methods to choose the source HTML file and the output DOCX file
- Call the ConvertAsync(builder) method to let Aspose Cloud process the HTML file and produce the DOCX document
These steps summarize the development process of an HTML to DOCX converter using Java RESTful Service. First, set up the required namespaces and connect to Aspose Cloud by creating an HtmlApi object with your credentials. Then, define the input HTML and output DOCX files using FromLocalFile() and ToLocalFile(), and run ConvertAsync(builder) to complete the conversion.
Code to Convert HTML to DOCX Online using Java REST API
The snippet above shows how to export HTML to DOCX using the Java Low‑Code API. In this example we work with local files on disk for both input and output, but you can easily switch to cloud storage by using FromStorageFile() and ToStorageFile(), or mix local and storage files as your scenario requires.
By following the steps outlined above, you now have a clear, repeatable method for turning an HTML file into a DOCX document with our Java REST API. For a related walkthrough on converting HTML to PDF, see the article on Convert HTML to PDF using Java REST API.
