How to Convert HTML to DOCX in Python

Looking for quick and easy ways to display your HTML strings in a popular document format? The below API will seamlessly convert your HTML code to DOCX file format, and it’s free to use. You can easily structure your API call using the ready-to-run Python code provided below, and to complete your API call, you only need a free-tier Cloudmersive API key, which you can get by registering a free account on our website.

First things first, run the following command to install the Python SDK:

pip install cloudmersive-convert-api-client

After that, copy in the remaining snippet (the imports and the function), and you’re good to go:

from __future__ import print_function
import time
import cloudmersive_convert_api_client
from cloudmersive_convert_api_client.rest import ApiException
from pprint import pprint

# Configure API key authorization: Apikey
configuration = cloudmersive_convert_api_client.Configuration()
configuration.api_key['Apikey'] = 'YOUR_API_KEY'



# create an instance of the API class
api_instance = cloudmersive_convert_api_client.ConvertWebApi(cloudmersive_convert_api_client.ApiClient(configuration))
input_request = cloudmersive_convert_api_client.HtmlToOfficeRequest() # HtmlToOfficeRequest | HTML input to convert to DOCX

try:
    # Convert HTML to Word DOCX Document
    api_response = api_instance.convert_web_html_to_docx(input_request)
    pprint(api_response)
except ApiException as e:
    print("Exception when calling ConvertWebApi->convert_web_html_to_docx: %s\n" % e)
