Automated schema generation

Document AI's automated schema generation lets you automatically generate a document's schema from a test document you supply. Then, you can approve or decline the schema and edit it manually. This saves time and effort when defining the document schema for your custom processor and lets you focus on refining the schema.

Automated schema generation also has a wider knowledge base on creating high quality schemas. This can potentially improve document extraction quality.

Generate a schema

If you haven't already snapshotted or fine-tuned your processor, take the following steps.

1. On the Get startedtab, select Generate schema from document. The Edit schemapage opens.

   

2. Use the input field to select a local file file to generate the schema, or use the Browseoption to upload a sample document.

   

3. Select Generate Schema.

4. Review the generated schema preview. You can choose accept or reject the schema with Apply schemaor Abort schema, to try again with a different sample document or prompt.

   

5. Optional: If the resulting schema doesn't serve your needs, or requires more than manual editing, you can enter a prompt in Generate a schema promptto provide additional input and direction for the generator. Try prompts such as: specifying the document type, stating the most important parts of the document, or suggesting a target number of entities.
