## Input

<Tip>
  The Make module doesn't expose every PDF.co API parameter as a field. To pass a parameter that isn't shown, use the **Profiles** field with `std_params`. Enable **Advanced Settings** to see it (see [Profiles](#profiles)). See [Standard Parameters](/api/profiles#standard-parameters) for details.
</Tip>

| Name | Description | Required |
| - | - | - |
| **Import Options** | Select the input source for attachments: `Upload Files` or `Input Link(s)`. | Yes |

***

**Upload Files**

| Name | Description | Required |
| - | - | - |
| **Data** | Upload a file using raw binary data from another module. Note: This requires additional credits as it first uploads to [PDF.co Temporary Files Storage](/api/file-upload). | Yes |

**Input Link(s)**

| Name | Description | Required |
| - | - | - |
| **URL** | Provide URLs to source documents, separated by commas. Example: `https://example.com/sample1.pdf,https://example2.com/sample2.pdf`. Ensure links are publicly accessible if using services like **Google Drive** or **Dropbox**. | Yes |

| Name | Description | Required |
| - | - | - |
| **Email From** | Specify the sender's name and email. Example: `John Doe <john@example.com>`. | Yes |

| **SMTP User Name** | The SMTP server username. | Yes |
| **SMTP Password** | The SMTP server password. | Yes |
| **Execution Mode** | Select **Sync** for small tasks up to `10` seconds. Choose **Async** for standard jobs, or **Async For Large Docs** for tasks over `30` seconds. Use **Job Check** module for retrieving results in large tasks. | No |
| **Profiles** | Add custom options for the process in a `JSON` string format. See [API Profiles](#profiles) for more details. | No |

## Output

| Name | Description |
| - | - |
| `Status` | Indicates the [response status](/api/introduction) code. A `success` status is returned if the operation is successful. |
| `outputLinkValidTill` | Specifies the timestamp until which the `url` remains accessible. |
| `error` | Provides details about any errors encountered during the process, if applicable. |
| `Job Id` | A unique identifier assigned to the job. |
| `credits` | The amount of credits utilized for the process. |
| `Remaining Credits` | Displays the balance of credits available in your account. |
| `duration` | The duration of time the process took to complete. |

### Profiles

<Warning>
  To display the Profiles fields, you must **enable Advanced Settings** by clicking the toggle:

  </Frame>
</Warning>

You can set additional options for the operation used in the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) module by using **Profiles**. A profile is a string in JSON-like format containing predefined parameters.

### Here’s an example of a Custom Profiles input:

```json theme={null}
{
    'DataEncryptionAlgorithm': 'AES128',
    'DataEncryptionKey': 'HelloThisKey1234',
    'DataEncryptionIV': 'TreloThisKey1234'
}
```

With this input, the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) module will return the output in base64 format. You can find the list of available parameters for customizing profiles in the [PDF.co](http://pdf.co/) operation documentation below:

<Tip>
  You can use any regular API parameter from the [API Reference](/api) within Make using the `std_params` feature in profiles. The `std_params` enables the definition of regular API parameters in a JSON format, See [Standard Parameters](/api/profiles#standard-parameters) for detailed documentation and examples.
