indox Developer Documentation

Welcome. This is the public documentation for the indox file-conversion platform.

If you are an external developer integrating with indox, you are in the right place. If you are an internal contributor looking for plans, decisions, or dashboards — see design/ in the repository (not published here).

What is indox

indox converts files — documents, images, audio, video, fonts — through a uniform REST API, spanning 6,022 conversions across the platform.

Conversions are asynchronous:

  1. POST /<service>/api/v1/convert/ → 202 { conversion_id }
  2. Poll GET /conversion/{id}/ → terminal state
  3. GET /{id}/download/ → presigned URL
