TheDoc AI - Operationtask lets you check thestatusof a long-running operation (LRO) in the Document AI processor. TheDocument AI processorcreates an LRO every time you send aBatch Processrequest.
Cloud Document AIis a Google Cloud service that allows you to parse structured information from unstructured or semi-structured documents using state-of-the-art Google AI such as natural language, computer vision, translation, and AutoML.
Before you begin
Ensure that you perform the following tasks in your Google Cloud project before configuring theDoc AI - Operationtask:
Enable the Cloud Document AI API (documentai.googleapis.com) in your Google Cloud project before configuring theDoc AI - Operationtask.
Create anauthentication profile. Application Integration uses an authentication profile to connect to an authentication endpoint for theDoc AI - Operationtask.
TheIntegrationspage appears listing all the integrations available in the Google Cloud project.
Select an existing integration or clickCreate integrationto create a new one.
If you are creating a new integration:
Enter a name and description in theCreate Integrationpane.
Select a region for the integration.
Select a service account for the integration. You can change or update the service account details of an integration any time from theinfoIntegration summarypane in the integration toolbar.
ClickCreate. The newly created integration opens in theintegration editor.
In theintegration editornavigation bar, clickTasksto view the list of available tasks and connectors.
Click and place theDoc AI - Operationelement in the integration editor.
Click theDoc AI - Operationelement on the designer to view theDoc AI - Operationtask configuration pane.
Go toAuthentication, and select an existing authentication profile that you want to use.
Optional. If you have not created an authentication profile prior to configuring the task, Click+ New authentication profileand follow the steps as mentioned inCreate a new authentication profile.
Go toTask Input, and configure the displayed inputs fields using the followingTask input parameterstable.
Changes to the inputs fields are saved automatically.
Task input parameters
The following table describes the input parameters of theDoc AI - Operationtask:
Property
Data type
Description
Region
String
Cloud Document AIlocationfor the processor. For example:us- United States.
ProjectsId
String
Your Google Cloud project ID.
OperationId
String
The ID of your operation. The ID is the last element of the name of your operation.
Task output
TheDoc AI - Operationtask returns the details of your long-running operation (LRO), similar to the following sample output:
An error handling strategy for a task specifies the action to take if the task fails due to atemporary error. For information about how to use an error handling strategy, and to know about the different types of error handling strategies, seeError handling strategies.
