The Generate operation is used to request document processing based on transaction data included in the request. This operation is an asynchronous call back that takes transaction data, a Content URI (for callback servicing), and an account ID (AccountID) for the calling application and returns status information. This is typically followed by a call to the GetRequestResult operation to return the generated package documents as requested by the calling application in the Generate request.
The operation is used to request processing of a specified package, including options for 1) generating a text watermark, 2) generating multiple output formats for each document, 3) generating documents as a merged output file or individual files, and 4) assigning a specific barcode format.
