RequestPdfUrls

This endpoint retrieves PDF copies of a Form ACA for a single recipient or multiple recipients. Request the PDF URLs by providing the RecordId associated with the returns.

Key points

  • This endpoint does not generate new PDFs - it only retrieves links to PDFs that already exist in the system.
  • PDF URLs are returned only if they've already been generated by TaxBandits. This endpoint will not work for in-progress returns.
