## Using Perl to Convert an Excel File to another File Format

The following code example elaborates how you can use Perl code to convert an Excel document to another file format in the cloud:

```Perl
    @api = AsposeCellsCloud::CellsApi.new("appsid","appkey")
    my $format = 'pdf'; # replace NULL with a proper value
    my $password = undef; # replace NULL with a proper value
    my $out_path = undef; # replace NULL with a proper value
    my $Book1_data =undef;
    my @fileinfos = stat("D:\\Projects\\Aspose\\Aspose.Cloud\\Aspose.Cells.Cloud.SDK\\src\\TestData\\Book1.xlsx");
    my $filelength = @fileinfos[7];
    open(DATA, "<D:\\Projects\\Aspose\\Aspose.Cloud\\Aspose.Cells.Cloud.SDK\\src\\TestData\\Book1.xlsx") or die "file.txt can not open, $!";
    binmode(DATA);
    # while( read (DATA, $Book1_data, 8)) {};
    read (DATA, $Book1_data, $filelength);
    close (DATA);    
    my $folder = $TEMPFOLDER; # replace NULL with a proper value
    # ready_file('api'=> $api, 'file'=>$name ,'folder' =>$folder) ;  
    $result = $api->cells_workbook_put_convert_workbook( workbook => $Book1_data, format => $format, password => $password, out_path => $out_path,folder =>$folder);conver
