A low-level client representing Amazon Textract
Amazon Textract detects and analyzes text in documents and converts it into machine-readable text. This is the API reference documentation for Amazon Textract.
import boto3
client = boto3.client('textract')
These are the available methods:
Analyzes an input document for relationships between detected items.
The types of information returned are as follows:
Selection elements such as check boxes and option buttons (radio buttons) can be detected in form data and in tables. A SELECTION_ELEMENT Block object contains information about a selection element, including the selection status.
You can choose which type of analysis to perform by specifying the FeatureTypes list.
The output is returned in a list of Block objects.
AnalyzeDocument is a synchronous operation. To analyze documents asynchronously, use StartDocumentAnalysis .
For more information, see Document Text Analysis .

The number of pages that are detected in the document.
Blocks (list) --
The items that are detected and analyzed by AnalyzeDocument .
(dict) --
A Block represents items that are recognized in a document within a group of pixels close to each other. The information returned in a Block object depends on the type of operation. In text detection for documents (for example DetectDocumentText ), you get information about the detected words and lines of text. In text analysis (for example AnalyzeDocument ), you can also get information about the fields, tables, and selection elements that are detected in the document.
An array of Block objects is returned by both synchronous and asynchronous operations. In synchronous operations, such as DetectDocumentText , the array of Block objects is the entire set of results. In asynchronous operations, such as GetDocumentAnalysis , the array is returned over one or more responses.
For more information, see How Amazon Textract Works .
BlockType (string) --
The type of text item that's recognized. In operations for text detection, the following types are returned:
In text analysis operations, the following types are returned:

(dict) --
The X and Y coordinates of a point on a document page. The X and Y values that are returned are ratios of the overall document page size. For example, if the input document is 700 x 200 and the operation returns X=0.5 and Y=0.25, then the point is at the (350,50) pixel coordinate on the document page.
An array of Point objects, Polygon , is returned by DetectDocumentText . Polygon represents a fine-grained polygon around detected text. For more information, see Geometry in the Amazon Textract Developer Guide.
X (float) --
The value of the X coordinate for a point on a Polygon .
Y (float) --
The value of the Y coordinate for a point on a Polygon .
Id (string) --
The identifier for the recognized text. The identifier is only unique for a single operation.
Relationships (list) --
A list of child blocks of the current block. For example, a LINE object has child blocks for each WORD block that's part of the line of text. There aren't Relationship objects in the list for relationships that don't exist, such as when the current block has no child blocks. The list size can be the following:
(dict) --
Information about how blocks are related to each other. A Block object contains 0 or more Relation objects in a list, Relationships . For more information, see Block .
The Type element provides the type of the relationship for all blocks in the IDs array.
Type (string) --
The type of relationship that the blocks in the IDs array have with the current block. The relationship can be VALUE or CHILD . A relationship of type VALUE is a list that contains the ID of the VALUE block that's associated with the KEY of a key-value pair.

The selection status of a selection element, such as an option button or check box.
Page (integer) --
The page on which a block was detected. Page is returned by asynchronous operations. Page values greater than 1 are only returned for multipage documents that are in PDF or TIFF format. A scanned image (JPEG/PNG), even if it contains multiple document pages, is considered to be a single-page document. The value of Page is always 1. Synchronous operations don't return Page because every input document is considered to be a single-page document.
HumanLoopActivationOutput (dict) --
Shows the results of the human in the loop evaluation.
HumanLoopArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the HumanLoop created.
HumanLoopActivationReasons (list) --

[REQUIRED]
The input document, either as bytes or as an S3 object.
You pass image bytes to an Amazon Textract API operation by using the Bytes property. For example, you would use the Bytes property to pass a document loaded from a local file system. Image bytes passed by using the Bytes property must be base64 encoded. Your code might not need to encode document file bytes if you're using an AWS SDK to call Amazon Textract API operations.
You pass images stored in an S3 bucket to an Amazon Textract API operation by using the S3Object property. Documents stored in an S3 bucket don't need to be base64 encoded.
The AWS Region for the S3 bucket that contains the S3 object must match the AWS Region that you use for Amazon Textract operations.
If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Textract operations, passing image bytes using the Bytes property isn't supported. You must first upload the document to an Amazon S3 bucket, and then call the operation using the S3Object property.
For Amazon Textract to process an S3 object, the user must have permission to access the S3 object.

A scanned image (JPEG/PNG), even if it contains multiple document pages, is considered to be a single-page document. The value of Page is always 1. Synchronous operations don't return Page because every input document is considered to be a single-page document.
Exceptions
Gets the results for an Amazon Textract asynchronous operation that analyzes text in a document.
You start asynchronous text analysis by calling StartDocumentAnalysis , which returns a job identifier (JobId ). When the text analysis operation finishes, Amazon Textract publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic that's registered in the initial call to StartDocumentAnalysis . To get the results of the text-detection operation, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED . If so, call GetDocumentAnalysis , and pass the job identifier (JobId ) from the initial call to StartDocumentAnalysis .
GetDocumentAnalysis returns an array of Block objects. The following types of information are returned:
Selection elements such as check boxes and option buttons (radio buttons) can be detected in form data and in tables. A SELECTION_ELEMENT Block object contains information about a selection element, including the selection status.
Use the MaxResults parameter to limit the number of blocks that are returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults , the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetDocumentAnalysis , and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value that's returned from the previous call to GetDocumentAnalysis .

Gets the results for an Amazon Textract asynchronous operation that analyzes invoices and receipts. Amazon Textract finds contact information, items purchased, and vendor name, from input invoices and receipts.
You start asynchronous invoice/receipt analysis by calling StartExpenseAnalysis , which returns a job identifier (JobId ). Upon completion of the invoice/receipt analysis, Amazon Textract publishes the completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. This topic must be registered in the initial call to StartExpenseAnalysis . To get the results of the invoice/receipt analysis operation, first ensure that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED . If so, call GetExpenseAnalysis , and pass the job identifier (JobId ) from the initial call to StartExpenseAnalysis .
Use the MaxResults parameter to limit the number of blocks that are returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults , the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetExpenseAnalysis , and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value that's returned from the previous call to GetExpenseAnalysis .

Returns an object that can wait for some condition.
Starts the asynchronous analysis of an input document for relationships between detected items such as key-value pairs, tables, and selection elements.
StartDocumentAnalysis can analyze text in documents that are in JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and PDF format. The documents are stored in an Amazon S3 bucket. Use DocumentLocation to specify the bucket name and file name of the document.
StartDocumentAnalysis returns a job identifier (JobId ) that you use to get the results of the operation. When text analysis is finished, Amazon Textract publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic that you specify in NotificationChannel . To get the results of the text analysis operation, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED . If so, call GetDocumentAnalysis , and pass the job identifier (JobId ) from the initial call to StartDocumentAnalysis .
For more information, see Document Text Analysis .
