Overview

The Export Resume as PDF endpoint generates a professionally formatted PDF of a resume using the user’s chosen template and design settings. The PDF is rendered server-side using Playwright and returned as a binary file. Common use cases:
  • AI agent job applications - export a tailored resume as PDF and attach it to a job application.
  • Automated delivery - generate PDFs on demand and send via email or upload to a job portal.
  • Archiving - save PDF snapshots of resumes at different stages of your job search.

Example

curl -X POST "https://api.mokaru.ai/v1/resume/clx1234/export/pdf" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mk_your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{}' \
  -o resume.pdf

​
Response

The response is a binary PDF file, not JSON. Headers:
  • Content-Type: application/pdf
  • Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="FirstName_LastName_JobTitle.pdf"
  • Cache-Control: private, max-age=0
This endpoint returns a binary file. Use -o filename.pdf with curl or handle the response as a blob/buffer in your code. The PDF is rendered with the resume’s template and design settings.
PDF generation takes 5-15 seconds depending on resume complexity. The rate limit is 5 per minute to prevent overload.
If the resume is currently being tailored by auto-prep, the endpoint returns 409 Conflict with code RESUME_PROCESSING. Wait a few seconds and retry.
