What the Convertapi connector can do
ConvertAPI converts documents, spreadsheets, and images between formats, with asynchronous processing built in for larger files. A type.com Space can ask Claude to check whether a specific conversion is supported, start an async conversion for a large file, or clean up uploaded files and jobs once they're no longer needed.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Convertapi
Can Claude convert files with ConvertAPI from type.com?
Yes. With a ConvertAPI connection shared to your Space, Claude can check format support, run async conversions, and clean up files directly in a thread.
How does type.com authenticate with ConvertAPI?
ConvertAPI uses an API key or JWT bearer token you add once to the connection, managed by an admin who controls which Spaces can use it.
Can file conversions run on a recurring schedule?
Yes. Set up a type.com automation to convert files dropped in a known location on a regular basis.
Is this the same as an MCP server for Convertapi?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
