VSDM Viewer API - Preview Macro-Enabled Visio on Android

VSDM is the macro-enabled drawing format that Microsoft Visio introduced with its 2013 release, combining an XML-based drawing package with embedded VBA macros. Those macros make the files useful on a Windows desktop and harder to handle anywhere else: Android has no Visio, and a macro-enabled file raises security questions even where Visio is installed.

Rendering in the cloud removes both obstacles. The GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud REST API accepts a VSDM drawing and returns pages in HTML, PDF, JPG or PNG, which can be read on Android without opening a macro-enabled document locally.

The Android SDK for Java takes care of authentication and request building, and it is fetched from Maven or Gradle alongside code samples. Password-protected drawings are supported, individual pages can be rendered on request, and the API Explorer is open for interactive testing.

Ad-hoc checks are handled by the free GroupDocs.Viewer app online, while development is covered by a free trial. VSDM sits among more than 180 formats this API renders, alongside the rest of the Visio family.
