Prerequisites

Before you start using our APIs, you will need to have the proper credentials.

Get a convert.com.de License Key

Subscribe to one of the API plans to get your license key.

Once your subscription is confirmed, you’ll receive a license key via email, which enable you to make requests. To safeguard your license key, we recommend storing them securely using environment variables or a password manager, as it stays active unless regenerated.

Make your first request

The base URL for our API methods is:

https://api.convert.com.de/

All endpoints branch from this base URL.

Method: POST
Headers: Content-Type: application/json
Body:

{
  "access_token": "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY",
  "text": "hello world"
}

Replace YOUR_LICENSE_KEY with your license key.

curl -X POST \
  https://api.convert.com.de/v1/string/camelcase \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"access_token": "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY", "text": "hello world"}'

Once you’ve made a successful request, you will receive a payload related to the request.

{
  "statusCode": 200,
  "data": {
    "text": "hello world",
    "convertedText": "helloWorld"
  }
}

Error Responses

Our API returns error responses in the following format:

Congratulations! Now that you’ve made your first API call, it’s time to build!
