Convert Word to PDF with Java SDK of Aspose.Words Cloud throws forbidden error

Aspose.Words Cloud Product Family

I am trying to convert a word document to a pdf using the cloud api. I have a storage mapped to amazon s3. My Java code is as follows:

String amazonS3StorageName = “MyStorageName”;

//build URI to convert MS Word file to other format using storage

String strURI = “http://api.aspose.cloud/v1.1/words/” + fileName + “?format=pdf&storage=” + amazonS3StorageName + “&folder=” + bucket + “/” + folderPath;

//sign URI

System.out.println(strURI);

String signedURI = Sign(strURI, appSID, appKey);

System.out.println(signedURI);

try

{

InputStream responseStream = ProcessCommand(signedURI, “GET”);

//boolean response = SaveStreamToFile(relativePath + “.pdf”, responseStream);

responseStream.close();

}

catch(Exception e)

{

}

The problem is, I am always getting “Forbidden”.

I don’t see what the problem with this is. I just modified an example I found on your website.

Hi Ash,

Can you please confirm if you have followed these steps https://docs.aspose.cloud/display/totalcloud/Configure+Amazon+S3+Storage to map your S3 storage with Aspose Cloud? If yes, can you please send following information to me at muhammad.ijaz@aspose.com?

  • Your App SID and App Key
  • Name of the mapped storage
  • Your S3 bucket name

Best Regards,

You can also convert the Word document PDF without using the cloud storage using ConvertDocument API method. Please check the sample Java code for reference.

// Get Client ID and Client Secret from https://dashboard.aspose.cloud/
WordsApi wordsApi = new WordsApi("xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxx","xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx","https://api.aspose.cloud");


try {
	
	ConvertDocumentRequest request = new ConvertDocumentRequest(
            Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("C:/Temp/02_pages.docx").toAbsolutePath()),
            "pdf",
            null,
            null,
            null,
            null
        );

        File result = wordsApi.convertDocument(request);
        System.out.println("api request completed...");
        File dest = new File("C:/Temp/02_pages_java.pdf");
		Files.copy(result.toPath(), dest.toPath(),
		java.nio.file.StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);
			
			
		} catch (Exception e) {
			System.out.println(e.getMessage());
		}
