Overview

OCR provides services through open Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). You can obtain the inference result by accessing and calling APIs in real time. It helps you collect key data automatically and build an intelligent business system, thereby improving service efficiency. Before calling an API, ensure that the user network can access the Internet.

You can perform related operations based on the API description, syntax, parameter description, and examples provided in this document. For example, you can call the API for recognizing characters in general text, cards, or receipts. APIs vary depending on regions. For details, see Endpoints. For details about all operations supported by APIs, see API Overview.

Before calling an OCR API, ensure that you are familiar with OCR concepts.

OCR also provides software development kits (SDKs) for multiple programming languages. For details about how to use SDKs, see SDK Reference.
