While there is a range of different types of API endpoints that drive the Affinda solution, uploading documents for processing (and receiving the response) is core to the product. Without documents, there is no Intelligent Document Processing!

Request Body

The following parameters may be included in the API POST request to Affinda.

Note, all individual parameters are optional, however, one (and only one) of the following must be specified:
