Analyzes an input document for relationships between detected items.
The types of information returned are as follows:
Form data (key-value pairs). The related information is returned in two Block
objects, each of type KEY_VALUE_SET
: a KEY
Block
object and a VALUE Block
object. For example,
Name: Ana Silva Carolina contains a key and value.
Name: is the key. Ana Silva Carolina* is
the value.
*
Table and table cell data. A TABLE Block
object contains information
about a detected table. A CELL Block
object is returned for each cell in
a table.
*
Lines and words of text. A LINE Block
object contains one or more
WORD Block
objects. All lines and words that are detected in the
document are returned (including text that doesn't have a relationship with the
value
of FeatureTypes
).
*
Signatures. A SIGNATURE Block
object contains the location information
of a signature in a document. If used in conjunction with forms or tables, a
signature
can be given a Key-Value pairing or be detected in the cell of a table.
* Query. A QUERY Block object contains the query text, alias and link to the associated Query results block object.
* Query Result. A QUERY_RESULT Block object contains the answer to the query and an ID that connects it to the query asked. This Block also contains a confidence score.
Selection elements such as check boxes and option buttons (radio buttons) can be
detected in form data and in tables. A SELECTION_ELEMENT Block
object contains
information about a selection element, including the selection status.
You can choose which type of analysis to perform by specifying the
FeatureTypes
list.
The output is returned in a list of Block
objects.
AnalyzeDocument
is a synchronous operation. To analyze documents
asynchronously, use StartDocumentAnalysis
.
For more information, see Document Text Analysis.
AnalyzeExpense
synchronously analyzes an input document for financially
related relationships between text.
Information is returned as ExpenseDocuments
and seperated as
follows:
*
LineItemGroups
- A data set containing LineItems
which
store information about the lines of text, such as an item purchased and its
price on
a receipt.
*
SummaryFields
- Contains all other information a receipt, such as
header information or the vendors name.
Analyzes identity documents for relevant information.
This information is extracted and
returned as IdentityDocumentFields
, which records both the normalized field
and value of the extracted text. Unlike other Amazon Textract operations,
AnalyzeID
doesn't return any Geometry data.
Creates an adapter, which can be fine-tuned for enhanced performance on user provided documents.
Takes an AdapterName and FeatureType. Currently the only supported feature type
is QUERIES
. You can also provide a Description, Tags, and a
ClientRequestToken. You can choose whether or not the adapter should be
AutoUpdated with
the AutoUpdate argument. By default, AutoUpdate is set to DISABLED.
Creates a new version of an adapter.
Operates on a provided AdapterId and a specified dataset provided via the DatasetConfig argument. Requires that you specify an Amazon S3 bucket with the OutputConfig argument. You can provide an optional KMSKeyId, an optional ClientRequestToken, and optional tags.
Deletes an Amazon Textract adapter.
Takes an AdapterId and deletes the adapter specified by the ID.
Deletes an Amazon Textract adapter version.
Requires that you specify both an AdapterId and a AdapterVersion. Deletes the adapter version specified by the AdapterId and the AdapterVersion.
Detects text in the input document.
Amazon Textract can detect lines of text and the
words that make up a line of text. The input document must be in one of the
following image
formats: JPEG, PNG, PDF, or TIFF. DetectDocumentText
returns the detected
text in an array of Block
objects.
Each document page has as an associated Block
of type PAGE. Each PAGE Block
object
is the parent of LINE Block
objects that represent the lines of detected text
on a page. A LINE Block
object is
a parent for each word that makes up the line. Words are represented by Block
objects of type WORD.
DetectDocumentText
is a synchronous operation. To analyze documents
asynchronously, use StartDocumentTextDetection
.
For more information, see Document Text Detection.
Gets configuration information for an adapter specified by an AdapterId, returning information on AdapterName, Description, CreationTime, AutoUpdate status, and FeatureTypes.
Gets configuration information for the specified adapter version, including: AdapterId, AdapterVersion, FeatureTypes, Status, StatusMessage, DatasetConfig, KMSKeyId, OutputConfig, Tags and EvaluationMetrics.
Gets the results for an Amazon Textract asynchronous operation that analyzes text in a document.
You start asynchronous text analysis by calling StartDocumentAnalysis
,
which returns a job identifier (JobId
). When the text analysis operation
finishes, Amazon Textract publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple
Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic
that's registered in the initial call to StartDocumentAnalysis
. To get the
results of the text-detection operation, first check that the status value
published to the
Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED
. If so, call GetDocumentAnalysis
, and
pass the job identifier (JobId
) from the initial call to
StartDocumentAnalysis
.
GetDocumentAnalysis
returns an array of Block
objects.
The following types of information are returned:
Form data (key-value pairs). The related information is returned in two Block
objects, each of type KEY_VALUE_SET
: a KEY
Block
object and a VALUE Block
object. For example,
Name: Ana Silva Carolina contains a key and value.
Name: is the key. Ana Silva Carolina* is
the value.
*
Table and table cell data. A TABLE Block
object contains information
about a detected table. A CELL Block
object is returned for each cell in
a table.
*
Lines and words of text. A LINE Block
object contains one or more
WORD Block
objects. All lines and words that are detected in the
document are returned (including text that doesn't have a relationship with the
value
of the StartDocumentAnalysis
FeatureTypes
input parameter).
* Query. A QUERY Block object contains the query text, alias and link to the associated Query results block object.
* Query Results. A QUERY_RESULT Block object contains the answer to the query and an ID that connects it to the query asked. This Block also contains a confidence score.
While processing a document with queries, look out for
INVALID_REQUEST_PARAMETERS
output. This indicates that either the per
page query limit has been exceeded or that the operation is trying to query a
page in
the document which doesn’t exist.
Selection elements such as check boxes and option buttons (radio buttons) can be
detected in form data and in tables. A SELECTION_ELEMENT Block
object contains
information about a selection element, including the selection status.
Use the MaxResults
parameter to limit the number of blocks that are
returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults
, the value of
NextToken
in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting
the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call
GetDocumentAnalysis
, and populate the NextToken
request
parameter with the token value that's returned from the previous call to
GetDocumentAnalysis
.
