​

Load Bytes

In addition to supporting PDFs and images, the parse function now supports raw bytes from PDF and image files.

For more information, go to Sample Script: Parse Files from Bytes.

​

Consolidated Parsing Function

We released library v0.2.3, which includes a new parsing function: parse. chunk types.

The parse function allows you to parse multiple documents, and supports loading documents from Amazon S3 buckets, Google Drive, and other locations by using the connectors module.

To use the new parse function and the `connectors module, upgrade the library to v0.2.3.

The orginal parsing functions will continue to work, but we recommending using parse for new projects.

​

Consolidated Chunk Types

We released library v0.2.1, which includes consolidated chunk types.

The library now has the following chunk types: table, figure, marginalia, and text.

These chunk types were consolidated into marginalia:

• page_header
• page_footer
• page_number

These chunk types were consolidated into text:

• title
• form
• key_value

​

Action Required When Using Library

If you use the library and your scripts or workflows use any of the deprecated chunk types, update your code to use the new types.

How the library handles the deprecated chunk types depends on the version you’re using:

• Upgrade to v0.2.1 to use the new chunk types.
• If using v0.0.13 to v​​0.1.3, the marginalia type doesn’t exist and will fallback to page_header.
• If using v0.0.12 or earlier, the code will NOT work after May 22.

​

Action Required When Calling the API Directly

If you call the API directly and your scripts or workflows use any of the deprecated chunk types, update your code to use the new types.

We are making these same changes (consolidating the chunk types) to the API on Thursday, May 22.

Starting May 22, the API will stop using the deprecated types in the response. If your code uses the deprecated chunk types, the code will no longer work.

​

Improved Accuracy

​
