Instantly audit template variables in Claude Desktop

Let's run a quick check before you generate anything. Your agent can call `get_template_variable_audit` to map out exactly what fields a template expects. This keeps you from sending bad payloads and failing your runs. Once you know the schema, your agent uses `get_template_configuration` to inspect structural details. You don't have to open a browser to check if a field is a string or an array anymore.

Generate and track PDFs with this MCP Server

Stop writing custom rendering code for every invoice or contract. Your agent executes `create_new_generation` with your raw JSON payload to build the PDF instantly in the cloud. You can monitor progress directly in the chat window. The agent uses `get_generation_details` to check the status and retrieve the final download link as soon as it's ready.

Search templates and inspect account limits

Finding the right layout is quick. Your agent runs `search_documint_templates` or `list_documint_templates` to pull up your designs by keyword. Keep an eye on your usage without leaving your terminal or chat app. The `get_documint_account_metadata` tool pulls your current billing limits and generation counts in one quick call.
