Do I need to go to the embassy in Jakarta to use my e-visa?

ORIGINAL POSTER
I just received approval! Applied through Jakarta. 8 days total.

Quick question: do I need to physically go to the embassy in Jakarta before I can use the visa? They sent a pdf with the e-visa. I see no mention of needing to go in person and in the information it says: Airlines may ask for the details of this e-mail so they can carry out checks to allow you to board the plane.

It sounds good to go, however, I heard from a friend you must pick up the visa in Jakarta. Chatgpt says the same. Can someone confirm if it’s required? I’m currently in Bali.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has received approval for their e-visa applied through Jakarta and inquires whether a physical visit to the embassy is necessary to utilize the visa, as they have only received a PDF version. Responses indicate that printing the PDF visa is sufficient and no in-person visit is required.
