# Create a Briefing Document from a PDF Upload

This snippet mirrors the [PDF-based document recipe](https://docs.autocontentapi.com/quick-start/documents/from-pdf) using an uploaded file ID.

```javascript
// Requires Node.js 18+ for the built-in fetch API.
const token = process.env.AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN ?? "YOUR_API_TOKEN";
const fileId = process.env.FILE_ID ?? "YOUR_FILE_ID";
const endpoint = "https://api.autocontentapi.com/content/Create";

const payload = {
  outputType: "briefing_doc",
  format: "html",
  resources: [
    {
      type: "file",
      content: fileId
    }
  ],
  text: "Turn this uploaded report into an HTML briefing with headings, bullets, and a recommendations section."
};

async function run() {
  const response = await fetch(endpoint, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
      "Content-Type": "application/json"
    },
    body: JSON.stringify(payload)
  });

  if (!response.ok) {
    const errorText = await response.text();
    throw new Error(`Request failed: ${response.status} ${response.statusText}\n${errorText}`);
  }

  console.log("Document request accepted:", await response.json());
}

run().catch(error => {
  console.error(error);
  process.exit(1);
});
```

Set `YOUR_API_TOKEN` (or `AUTOCONTENT_TOKEN`) and `FILE_ID` before running.
