PDF BAD PASSWORD Exception

The "ERROR-003" error occurs when the user_password and/or owner_password parameter in the POST request is incorrect.

Tips
Check both USER and OWNER passwords. The User Password is the password that you enter to view a PDF file, and the Owner Password is the one that allows you to change the PDF file.

In some cases they might be the same password, but properly secured PDFs should have different values.

Example of proper password application in cURL:

curl -X POST 'https://api.securedoc.com/v1/document-services/pdfs/redact-text' \
  -H 'accept: */*' \
  -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
  -F 'words_to_redact="IRON"' \
  -F 'user_password="1234"' \
  -F 'owner_password="5678"' \
  -F 'pdf_file=@YOUR_PDF_DOCUMENT.pdf;type=application/pdf'
CURL

Refer to these lines for proper usage:

-F 'user_password="1234"' \

-F 'owner_password="5678"' \
