PDF API IO Automation via Rube MCP

Prerequisites

• Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
• Active PDF API IO connection via

  RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS

  with toolkit

  pdf_api_io

• Always call

  RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS

  first to get current tool schemas

Setup

https://rube.app/mcp

1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming

   RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS

   responds
2. Call

   RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS

   with toolkit

   pdf_api_io

3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Tool Discovery

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "PDF API IO operations", known_fields: ""}]
session: {generate_id: true}

Core Workflow Pattern

Step 1: Discover Available Tools

RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "your specific PDF API IO task"}]
session: {id: "existing_session_id"}

Step 2: Check Connection

RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
toolkits: ["pdf_api_io"]
session_id: "your_session_id"

Step 3: Execute Tools

RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL
tools: [{
  tool_slug: "TOOL_SLUG_FROM_SEARCH",
  arguments: {/* schema-compliant args from search results */}
}]
memory: {}
session_id: "your_session_id"

Known Pitfalls

• Always search first: Tool schemas change. Never hardcode tool slugs or arguments without calling

  RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS

• Check connection: Verify

  RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS

  shows ACTIVE status before executing tools
• Schema compliance: Use exact field names and types from the search results
• Memory parameter: Always include

  memory

  in

  RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL

  calls, even if empty (

  {}

  )
• Session reuse: Reuse session IDs within a workflow. Generate new ones for new workflows
• Pagination: Check responses for pagination tokens and continue fetching until complete
