Quick-Start
Using the sample below, we are going to illustrate how to extract the data that we want using the SDK.

Sample Code
Sample Output (rST)
Standard Fields
These fields are generic and used in several products.
BaseField
Each prediction object contains a set of fields that inherit from the generic BaseField class. A typical BaseField object will have the following attributes:
value (
Union[float, str]): corresponds to the field value. Can beNoneif no value was extracted.confidence (
float): the confidence score of the field prediction.bounding_box (
[Point, Point, Point, Point]): contains exactly 4 relative vertices (points) coordinates of a right rectangle containing the field in the document.polygon (
List[Point]): contains the relative vertices coordinates (Point) of a polygon containing the field in the image.page_id (
int): the ID of the page, alwaysNonewhen at document-level.reconstructed (
bool): indicates whether an object was reconstructed (not extracted as the API gave it).
Aside from the previous attributes, all basic fields have access to a custom __str__ method that can be used to print their value as a string.
ClassificationField
The classification field ClassificationField does not implement all the basic BaseField attributes. It only implements value, confidence and page_id.
A classification field's `value is always a `str`. {% endhint %}
DateField
Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the date field DateField also implements the following:
date_object (
Date): an accessible representation of the value as a python object. Can beNone.
StringField
The text field StringField only has one constraint: its value is an Optional[str].
Page-Level Fields
Some fields are constrained to the page level, and so will not be retrievable at document level.
