How do I get the number of pages in a PDF file?

Cloudinary supports returning the number of pages in a multi-page PDF.

As part of the upload response, Cloudinary also returns the pages parameter, indicating the number of pages within the PDF:

For files that have already been uploaded, use the Admin API to retrieve the pages information for a specific resource. For example, in Rails:

Cloudinary::Api.resource("my_pdf_file", :pages => true)

    I'm having trouble implementing this. I am replacing "my_pdf_file" with my cloudinary link to my pdf that is already uploaded but I get an error that says

    Cloudinary::Api::NotFound at /
    Resource not found - 

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
