🔷 NUMBERS to PNG with Go

Convert Numbers files to PNG images online for previews, exports, and visual workflows.

GoREST APINUMBERS → PNG

Use this guide to convert NUMBERS to PNG with Go, then adapt the example to your own app, backend, or processing flow.

Overview

What this guide covers

Conversion path

Use Converterer to accept or prepare a NUMBERS file, trigger a NUMBERS to PNG job, and return the output to your app or workflow.

Go example

Start with the example on this page, then adapt auth, file handling, polling, and result delivery to your environment.

Production usage

This is best suited to backend jobs, async processing, content pipelines, and repeatable conversion flows rather than one-off browser scripting.

Code example

NUMBERS to PNG

package main

import (
    "bytes"
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "io"
    "mime/multipart"
    "net/http"
    "os"
)

func main() {
    body := &bytes.Buffer{}
    w := multipart.NewWriter(body)
    f, _ := os.Open("input.numbers")
    fw, _ := w.CreateFormFile("input", "input.numbers")
    io.Copy(fw, f)
    w.WriteField("output_format", "png")
    w.Close()

    req, _ := http.NewRequest(
        "POST",
        "https://api.converterer.com/convert",
        body,
    )
    req.SetBasicAuth(os.Getenv("CONVERTERER_API_KEY"), "")
    req.Header.Set("Content-Type", w.FormDataContentType())

    res, _ := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)
    var task map[string]any
    json.NewDecoder(res.Body).Decode(&task)
    fmt.Println(task["id"])
    // Result lands at <your-destination>/<id>.png
}
