Rename email fields

When rendering email messages, by default the API uses the English language to render field labels such as FromToSubject etc. There might be the case when you want to change the label of the fields in email message’s header. GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud is flexible enough to allow you to use the custom field labels for email header. The API provides a new property FieldLabels in EmailOptions class to change the field labels. Following code sample shows how to use custom field labels.

API Usage

There are steps that usage of GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud consists of:

  1. Upload input document into cloud storage
  2. Render document or get document info
  3. Download rendered document from storage

Steps 1 and 3 are storage operations, please refer to this File API documentation for usage details.

Swagger UI lets you call this REST API directly from the browser.

SDK examples

The API is completely independent of your operating system, database system or development language. We provide and support API SDKs in many development languages in order to make it even easier to integrate. You can see our available SDKs list here.
