Ways to use it

Convert by the row

Fill =VERVE("markdowntopdf", A2) beside a column of input and get the converted value back for every row — a batch conversion done in one drag.

No parser, no export

Turn one format into another right in the cell instead of round-tripping through a script or an online tool.

Feed the next step

Pipe the converted value straight into the formula or chart that needs it.

Use it in your sheet

The same function works in both apps — install once, sign in with your key, and type it into any cell.

Google SheetsAdd-on

Install from the Workspace Marketplace, then drop the formula into a cell. Autocomplete suggests the source and its fields.

=VERVE("markdowntopdf", A2)

Microsoft ExcelAdd-in

Same function, same arguments, same key — in Excel on desktop, the web, or mobile. Drag to fill a whole column.

=VERVE("markdowntopdf", A2)

Fields you can pull

Add a field name as the last argument to land just that value in the cell.

Markdown to PDF, answered

Everything you need to wire it into a sheet.

How do I pull Markdown to PDF into a spreadsheet?

Install the VerveSheets add-on, sign in with your key, and type =VERVE("markdowntopdf", A2) into any cell. The same function works in Google Sheets and Excel — no scripts, no API wiring.

How many credits does each Markdown to PDF cell cost?

Each resolved cell costs 15 credits. Filling a column of ten rows costs ten times that; a cell only re-bills when it actually refreshes, so a static sheet doesn't keep charging.

Can I fill a whole column at once?

Yes. Reference a range instead of a single cell — e.g. point Markdown to PDF at A2:A50 — and it returns a value for every row in one call, or just drag =VERVE("markdowntopdf", A2) down like any spreadsheet function.

Does Markdown to PDF work in Excel as well as Google Sheets?

Yes. It's the same =VERVE() function with the same arguments and the same key in both — build a sheet in one and it behaves identically in the other.

How current is the data?

Markdown to PDF is served live from APIVerve's production data engine, and cells recalculate on the refresh cadence you choose — every open, hourly, or every 30 minutes.

Where does the data come from, and what shows on my bill?

VerveSheets runs on APIVerve, our production data engine; Markdown to PDF is one of 300+ sources on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.
