    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",

AI Coding Instructions

• Keep NetOffice references in the .NET API project; browser JavaScript should call an API endpoint rather than load the NuGet package.
• Preserve the package reference format already used in Pams.API.csproj, since this dependency is tagged as legacy-format.
• Release Office COM objects and close documents after each operation to avoid leaving Office processes running.
• Handle environments where the required Office application is not installed or cannot be started.
