PrexView

About PrexView

PrexView is an API service that transforms structured data in XML or JSON format into documents, generating output as PDF, HTML, PNG, or JPG. Users create templates through PrexView Studio, select a template from a gallery, or commission one from a PrexView expert, then send data to be processed against that template via the API or through PrexView Shift, which sends files directly from a local folder.

The API supports integration through client libraries for Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby, Java, C#, Swift, Go, and direct curl requests, with authentication via an API key. Document generation is described as on-the-fly, with source data removed from the service once processing completes.

The product is built for developers generating transactional documents such as invoices, and includes built-in tools for charts, barcodes, QR codes, fonts, icons, and data logic helpers for transforming XML and JSON. It is offered for enterprise use with a per-server license option for deployment on AWS or Google Cloud, alongside support channels including forums and Slack.
