Creating a Preview PDF for Print By Data
Problem
You want to create a preview PDF using a data file, data mapping configuration and a template
as inputs.
Solution
The solution is to create a request using the following URI and method type and submit it to the
server via the Content Creation REST service:
Create Preview
PDF (By Data)
/rest/serverengine/workflow/contentcreation/pdfpreview/
{templateId}/{dmConfigId}
POST
