# Unire documenti PDF

Combinare più documenti PDF in uno solo, nell’ordine in cui vengono forniti.

Combinare più documenti PDF in uno solo. I file vengono uniti esattamente
nell’ordine in cui compaiono nella richiesta, così si controlla la sequenza
finale delle pagine. In una sola chiamata è possibile inviare tutti i file
necessari. L’API è *stateless*: il documento viene elaborato nella regione e non
viene mai memorizzato.

## Endpoint

<Endpoint method="POST" path="/v1/merge_documents" />

Disponibile in tutte le regioni. Vedere [Regioni e residenza dei
dati](/docs/api/regions-and-data-residency) per il routing e la residenza dei
dati.

## Autenticazione

Autenticare ogni richiesta con la chiave API segreta nell’intestazione
`X-API-Key`, tramite HTTPS. Le chiavi si creano e si gestiscono dalla
[dashboard](https://dashboard.pdfblocks.com). Vedere
[Autenticazione](/docs/api/authentication) per i dettagli.

## Richiesta

L’endpoint accetta un corpo della richiesta `multipart/form-data`.

<ParamField name="file" type="file[]" required>
  I documenti PDF di input, inviati come parti `file` ripetute. Fornirne almeno
  uno; in una sola richiesta è possibile inviare tutti i file necessari. I
  documenti vengono uniti esattamente nell’ordine in cui le parti compaiono
  nella richiesta. Vedere [Lavorare con i
  file](/docs/api/working-with-files) per sapere come inviare più parti `file`.
</ParamField>

## Esempi

Unire tre PDF in uno solo, in ordine:

```csharp title="C#"

## Risposta

In caso di successo, la risposta è `200 OK` e il corpo contiene il PDF unito:

```http
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Length: 96124
```

L’output è un unico PDF il cui numero di pagine è la somma delle pagine dei
documenti di input, disposte nell’ordine della richiesta. Scrivere il corpo
direttamente in un file, come fanno gli esempi qui sopra; dalla nostra parte non
viene memorizzato nulla.

## Errori

Le richieste non riuscite restituiscono un corpo `application/problem+json`.
L’errore più frequente su questo endpoint è un `400`, restituito quando una
delle parti `file` non è un PDF leggibile. L’oggetto `errors` nomina il campo:

```json
{
  "type": "https://www.pdfblocks.com/docs/api/v1/error/400",
  "title": "One or more validation errors occurred.",
  "status": 400,
  "errors": {
    "file": ["Could not parse the PDF document. The file may be invalid or corrupt."]
  }
}
```

Una `X-API-Key` assente o non valida restituisce un `401`. Vedere
[Errori](/docs/api/errors) per tutti i codici di stato e la forma completa della
risposta.
