    public class BookmarkGetAll {
        public static void Extract() {
            String REMOTE_FOLDER   = "Your_Temp_Pdf_Cloud";
            String LOCAL_FOLDER    = "c:\\Samples";
            String PDF_DOCUMENT    = "sample.pdf";
            String BOOKMARK_PATH  = "/1";

            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()));

                BookmarksResponse response = pdfApi.getDocumentBookmarks(PDF_DOCUMENT, REMOTE_FOLDER, null, null);
                if (response.getCode() != 200)
                    System.err.println("Error: unexpected error when extracting bookmarks! '" + response.getStatus() + "'");
                else{
                    Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
                    String jsonPage = gson.toJson(response.getBookmarks().getList());
                    System.out.println("Successfully extracted bookmarks from PDF document !\n" + jsonPage + "\n");
                }
