ConvertAPI StrawberryConvert file in ConvertAPI, on your say-so
ConvertAPI exposes 3 operations and a companion can work all of them: convert a file, convert web URL to specified format and convert base64 encoded file. Anything that changes a record waits for your click.
Open the base64 encoded file. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the ConvertAPI afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a base64 encoded file until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what ConvertAPI exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, no reads and 3 writes. In practice that means it can convert a file, convert web URL to specified format and convert base64 encoded file, and work across the base64 encoded files, files and web urls.
The ConvertAPI API stops at ConvertAPI. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Does it read the base64 encoded files or ask you for them?
In the tab.
ConvertAPI exposes no read operation to a connected account, so a companion opens ConvertAPI in the session you are already signed into and reads the screens you would.
The base64 encoded files are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the files. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of ConvertAPI admin becomes a queue you review.
What happens before it can convert file?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can convert a file, convert web URL to specified format and convert base64 encoded file, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the base64 encoded file, the field and the new value before it lands in ConvertAPI.
Nothing in ConvertAPI is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the base64 encoded file exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.

Does the base64 encoded file sweep have to be asked for every time?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the ConvertAPI base64 encoded files pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the documents, the ConvertAPI base64 encoded files sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
