If you can format the REST data using HTML, you could use HTML2PDF library to export as PDF.

The company I work at has a method for generating PDF files from a DataWindow report from a C# web app. I can tell you about it if you contact me directly. Roland@topwizprogramming.com

The .NET DataStore doesn’t have any visual formatting so doesn’t make sense to directly save its output to PDF.  So I would suggest either load the data from Web API in a PowerScript DataWindow and SaveAs PDF on the client side.  If you want to do on server side you will need to develop yourself the formatting and use a third-part PDF generator.
