How to Use the PostExport API with SDKs

Prerequisites

Before calling the API, obtain a valid JWT access token using the Aspose.Cells Cloud authentication flow. Ensure the token is included in the Authorization header of each request. The SDKs handle token acquisition automatically when configured with your client credentials.

PostExport API Specification

The OpenAPI Specification defines a publicly accessible programming interface and lets you perform REST interactions directly from a web browser.

You can use the cURL command‑line tool to access Aspose.Cells web services easily. The following example shows how to call the Cloud API with cURL.

# Export a worksheet to TIFF format
curl -X POST "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/export?objectType=worksheet&format=tiff" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" \
     -H "accept: multipart/form-data" \
     -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" \
     -H "x-aspose-client: Containerize.Swagger" \
     -F "File=@MyWorkbook.xlsx"
