How do I generate a weekly project status PDF from JSON?

Send a POST to /api/v1/generate with your API key, the template id and a JSON body shaped like the sample on this page; DocuJSON renders the weekly project status and returns the PDF. The same template is callable from the DocuJSON MCP server inside Claude, Cursor or your own agent.

What data does the weekly project status template need?

The JSON body has 6 top-level keys: week, summary, projects, milestones, blockers, nextWeek.

Which designs does the weekly project status template come in?

Five, all free: base, ledger, instrument, rail, form. The same JSON body renders in all of them, so you can switch the design of your weekly project status without changing your integration.

Is the weekly project status template free?

Yes. Every template and every design is free, with a small DocuJSON watermark on the free plan. Pro removes the watermark, puts your logo where the DocuJSON mark sits in the weekly project status preview, and unlocks configurable variables and higher volume.
