GroupDocs.Viewer.UI.Cloud.Api

GroupDocs.Viewer.UI.Cloud.Api is a cloud-based API implementation for GroupDocs.Viewer.UI that enables document viewing using GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud API. It provides seamless integration with GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud services, allowing you to view documents in various formats.

Installation

To use GroupDocs.Viewer.UI.Cloud.Api in your ASP.NET Core project:

1. Add the required package to your project:

dotnet add package GroupDocs.Viewer.UI.Cloud.Api

2. Configure the Cloud API in your Startup class:

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.Services
 .AddGroupDocsViewerUI();

builder.Services
 .AddControllers()
 .AddGroupDocsViewerCloudApi(config =>
 {
 config.SetApiEndpoint("https://api.groupdocs.cloud/v2.0/");
 config.SetClientId("your-client-id");
 config.SetClientSecret("your-client-secret");
 config.SetStorageName("your-storage-name");

 config.SetSaveOutput(true); // Set this to `true` to save output in the cloud storage.
 config.SetOutputFolderPath("viewer"); // Set the folder path where to store the output in the cloud storage.
 })
 .AddLocalStorage("./Files");

var app = builder.Build();

app
 .UseRouting()
 .UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
 {
 endpoints.MapGroupDocsViewerUI(options =>
 {
 options.UIPath = "/viewer";
 options.ApiEndpoint = "/viewer-api";
 });
 endpoints.MapGroupDocsViewerApi(options =>
 {
 options.ApiPath = "/viewer-api";
 });
 });

await app.RunAsync();
