Docs Generator component
A component that generates downloadable PDF, DOCX, or TXT documents from markdown-style content.
The Docs Generator component enables you to create professional documents directly within your agent workflow. It accepts markdown-formatted text and converts it into downloadable files, making it ideal for generating reports, summaries, or any structured document output.
Prerequisites
- Content to be converted into a document (typically from an Agent or other text-generating component).
Examples
You can pair an Agent component with the Docs Generator to create dynamic documents based on user queries. The Agent generates the content, and the Docs Generator converts it into a downloadable file. Connect the output to a Message component to display the download button in the chat.
A typical workflow looks like:
Begin → Agent → Docs Generator → Message
In the Message component, reference the download output variable from the Docs Generator to display a download button in the chat interface.
