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

Recommended Resolution

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

The following curl command demonstrates how to make a POST request to redact text from a PDF with user and owner passwords provided.

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 -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'

SHELL

-F 'words_to_redact="IRON"' specifies the words in the PDF to redact.
-F 'user_password="1234"' provides the password to view the PDF.
-F 'owner_password="5678"' provides the password that allows modifications to the PDF.
-F 'pdf_file=@YOUR_PDF_DOCUMENT.pdf;type=application/pdf' is how you attach the PDF document to the request.

提示Ensure that the passwords provided match those set in your PDF file. Incorrect passwords will result in an "ERROR-003" response.
