Steps to Edit Bookmark PDF Online using Python RESTful Service
- For request authentication, create the PdfApi client with your client key and client ID.
- Set local input/output file paths and the remote folder/file name used in the Cloud storage.
- Upload the local PDF to the remote storage for editing the bookmarks in it.
- Fetch the collection of bookmarks from the document.
- Select the target bookmark using its title.
- Parse the self‑link of the bookmark to build the bookmarkPath for the API.
- Set the desired title, style, destination page, and view settings for the new bookmark.
- Execute the PutBookmark request, verify success, then download and save the updated PDF locally.
These steps summarize the process to create an online PDF bookmark editor using the Python Low‑Code API: authenticate, define file paths, upload the PDF, retrieve the bookmark collection, pick the target bookmark, build the update payload, call the API, and finally download the modified PDF.
