            <url>https://releases.aspose.cloud/java/repo/</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>

This sample code shows getting an AcroForms in PDF documents


    package com.aspose.asposecloudpdfusecases.acroforms;

    import java.io.File;
    import java.nio.file.Path;
    import com.aspose.asposecloudpdf.api.PdfApi;
    import com.aspose.asposecloudpdf.model.FieldsResponse;
    import com.google.gson.Gson;
    import com.google.gson.GsonBuilder;

    public class AcroformGet {
        public static void extract() {
            String REMOTE_FOLDER   = "Your_Temp_Pdf_Cloud";
	    String LOCAL_FOLDER    = "c:\\Samples";
	    String PDF_DOCUMENT    = "sample.pdf";

            try {
                PdfApi pdfApi = new PdfApi(API_KEY, API_SECRET);

                // upload local PDF file to remote storage
                File file = new File(Path.of(LOCAL_FOLDER, PDF_DOCUMENT).toString());
                pdfApi.uploadFile(Path.of(REMOTE_FOLDER , PDF_DOCUMENT).toString(), file, null);
                System.out.println(String.format("File '%s' successfully uploaded!", Path.of(LOCAL_FOLDER, PDF_DOCUMENT).toString()));

                FieldsResponse response = pdfApi.getFields(PDF_DOCUMENT, null, REMOTE_FOLDER);
                if (response.getCode() != 200)
                    System.err.println("Error: unexpected error when extractingg fields! '" + response.getStatus() + "'");
                else {
                    Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
                    String jsonPage = gson.toJson(response.getFields().getList());
                    System.out.println("Successfully extracted page from document !\n" + jsonPage + "\n");
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
