Carbone
Document generation service for templates, JSON-driven reports, PDF and Office output, and template tagging.
Covers back-office reporting that uploads templates, renders them against JSON data into PDF or Office formats, and organizes templates by tag and category.
Example Use Cases
These are the Carbone actions Snow can use when building apps with you. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these on its own.

Tool to generate a Carbone report from a template and JSON data. Use when you need to render documents in various formats.
Tool to retrieve the current status and health of the Carbone server. Use before generating reports to ensure the service is operational.
