Backendless - Create PDF, Word, Excel Documents
Backendless works with Documentero to turn app events into ready-to-use documents. Whenever a new object, file, or user action happens in Backendless, the data can be sent directly into Documentero templates to generate PDFs, Word files, or spreadsheets. This makes it easy to create reports, confirmations, or records based on real-time activity in your application.
