This documentation page is intended for developers looking to integrate the Dielines API into their systems. If you have any questions, please get in touch.
Die Cut Templates provides a hosted API available via HTTPS.
Dielines API allows for generating custom dielines in PDF, DXF, and SVG formats, along with 3D mockups.
To fetch the dieline template (becf-21e25) via the API, please make a
GET request to
https://api.diecuttemplates.com/dieline-templates/in/becf-21e25
curl -i -X GET \
https://api.diecuttemplates.com/dieline-templates/in/becf-21e25 \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_DIELINES_API_KEY_HERE>' \
-H 'Dielines-Api-Version: 1.0'
