Upload and Parse a Document
with Affinda
Upload a file, wait for parsing to finish, and return the parsed data.
- Upload the file for asynchronous parsing. Setting wait to false returns an identifier immediately so the document can be polled for completion.
- Poll the document until its meta.ready flag becomes true, indicating that parsing has finished and the parsed data is available.
- Fetch the completed document to return the full set of parsed data and metadata to the caller.
What you'll need to have ready
- workspace: The workspace identifier to upload the document into.
- file: The document file contents (binary) to upload for parsing.
- fileName: Optional file name to store the document under.
- documentType: Optional document type identifier if already known.
