How does DocuGenerate handle data privacy for the information used to generate documents?
DocuGenerate does not store the data used for document generation. This data is transient, meaning it is only used during the generation process and then discarded. The service is GDPR compliant and provides options for processing and storage in various regions, including the European Union, to ensure data protection.
Can I integrate DocuGenerate with my existing no-code platforms like Power Apps or Make?
Yes, DocuGenerate is designed for seamless integration with both custom code and no-code platforms. The platform provides a full API and is specifically mentioned in tutorials for integration with tools like Make (formerly Integromat) and Power Apps for automating workflows such as certificate generation or proposal creation.
What happens if my template contains invalid or unclosed merge tags?
DocuGenerate's web application includes a feature to verify tags. It automatically detects merge tags and highlights invalid ones, such as unclosed tags, allowing you to fix them before generating documents to ensure the template is correctly set up.
Is it possible to prevent overage charges if my document generation volume fluctuates?
Yes, while paid plans allow for generating documents beyond the included limit at an additional per-document cost, you can set a maximum monthly limit on document generation. Once this limit is reached, no further documents will be generated until the next billing cycle, effectively preventing unexpected overage charges.
How does DocuGenerate count documents for billing purposes, especially with batch generation?
A document is counted each time a template is combined with a single data item. For single document generation, one data item equals one document. For batch generation using multiple data items (e.g., from an Excel file or JSON array), each individual data item processed results in one counted document, increasing your monthly usage by the total number of data items used.
Can I receive generated documents directly without them being stored on DocuGenerate's servers?
Yes, when using the API, it is possible to receive generated documents in a binary format. This bypasses the storage mechanism entirely, providing an option for users who prefer not to have their documents stored on the platform after generation.
