Directo's capability for requesting a printout PDF from an external system such as a WMS, webshop, etc. The external system requests a specific printout that has been designed in Directo and receives it in PDF format.
NB! Requesting a printout requires a Directo concurrent user license!

To provide an external system with the ability to request a printout:

1. Create a user with a password and user rights to query the given document and printout, and the user must not be prompted for a location at login
2. The address for accessing the printout. Open the specific printout
3. The URL of the opened printout window contains the necessary data:
   1. Base URL
   2. Printout ID
   3. Module identifier, i.e. document type
   4. The number of the document to be printed

Based on this data, the external system can request a PDF printout from Directo by making a POST request to

https://login.directo.ee/{base_name}/keeks.asp?yld_print.asp?mida=xsl&row={Printout_ID}&moodul={module_name}&number={document_number}&aspdf=1&print=yes 

posting the username and password in the Body as x-www-form-urlencoded.

Example of how to make a request in Postman 1. Parameter settings 2. Username and password posting settings NB! Enter the correct base name
