Comprehend.Client.classify_document(**kwargs)¶Creates a new document classification request to analyze a single document in real-time, using a previously created and trained custom model and an endpoint.
You can input plain text or you can upload a single-page input document (text, PDF, Word, or image).
If the system detects errors while processing a page in the input document, the API response includes an entry in Errors that describes the errors.
If the system detects a document-level error in your input document, the API returns an InvalidRequestException error response. For details about this exception, see Errors in semi-structured documents in the Comprehend Developer Guide.

Request Syntax
response = client.classify_document(
Text='string',
EndpointArn='string',
Bytes=b'bytes',
DocumentReaderConfig={
'DocumentReadAction': 'TEXTRACT_DETECT_DOCUMENT_TEXT'|'TEXTRACT_ANALYZE_DOCUMENT',
'DocumentReadMode': 'SERVICE_DEFAULT'|'FORCE_DOCUMENT_READ_ACTION',
'FeatureTypes': [
'TABLES'|'FORMS',
]
}
)
Bytes parameter.[REQUIRED]
The Amazon Resource Number (ARN) of the endpoint. For information about endpoints, see Managing endpoints.
Use the Bytes parameter to input a text, PDF, Word or image file. You can also use the Bytes parameter to input an Amazon Textract DetectDocumentText or AnalyzeDocument output file.
Provide the input document as a sequence of base64-encoded bytes. If your code uses an Amazon Web Services SDK to classify documents, the SDK may encode the document file bytes for you.
The maximum length of this field depends on the input document type. For details, see Inputs for real-time custom analysis in the Comprehend Developer Guide.
If you use the Bytes parameter, do not use the Text parameter.
Provides configuration parameters to override the default actions for extracting text from PDF documents and image files.
This field defines the Amazon Textract API operation that Amazon Comprehend uses to extract text from PDF files and image files. Enter one of the following values:
TEXTRACT_DETECT_DOCUMENT_TEXT - The Amazon Comprehend service uses the DetectDocumentText API operation.TEXTRACT_ANALYZE_DOCUMENT - The Amazon Comprehend service uses the AnalyzeDocument API operation.Determines the text extraction actions for PDF files. Enter one of the following values:
SERVICE_DEFAULT - use the Amazon Comprehend service defaults for PDF files.FORCE_DOCUMENT_READ_ACTION - Amazon Comprehend uses the Textract API specified by DocumentReadAction for all PDF files, including digital PDF files.Specifies the type of Amazon Textract features to apply. If you chose TEXTRACT_ANALYZE_DOCUMENT as the read action, you must specify one or both of the following values:
TABLES - Returns information about any tables that are detected in the input document.FORMS - Returns information and the data from any forms that are detected in the input document.Specifies the type of Amazon Textract features to apply. If you chose TEXTRACT_ANALYZE_DOCUMENT as the read action, you must specify one or both of the following values:
TABLES - Returns additional information about any tables that are detected in the input document.FORMS - Returns additional information about any forms that are detected in the input document.dict

Response Structure
(dict) --
Classes (list) --
The classes used by the document being analyzed. These are used for multi-class trained models. Individual classes are mutually exclusive and each document is expected to have only a single class assigned to it. For example, an animal can be a dog or a cat, but not both at the same time.
(dict) --
Specifies the class that categorizes the document being analyzed
Name (string) --
The name of the class.
Score (float) --
The confidence score that Amazon Comprehend has this class correctly attributed.
Page (integer) --
Page number in the input document. This field is present in the response only if your request includes the Byte parameter.
Labels (list) --
The labels used the document being analyzed. These are used for multi-label trained models. Individual labels represent different categories that are related in some manner and are not mutually exclusive. For example, a movie can be just an action movie, or it can be an action movie, a science fiction movie, and a comedy, all at the same time.
(dict) --
Specifies one of the label or labels that categorize the document being analyzed.
Name (string) --
The name of the label.
Score (float) --
The confidence score that Amazon Comprehend has this label correctly attributed.
Page (integer) --
Page number where the label occurs. This field is present in the response only if your request includes the Byte parameter.
DocumentMetadata (dict) --
Extraction information about the document. This field is present in the response only if your request includes the Byte parameter.
Pages (integer) --
Number of pages in the document.
ExtractedCharacters (list) --
List of pages in the document, with the number of characters extracted from each page.
(dict) --
Array of the number of characters extracted from each page.
Page (integer) --
Page number.
Count (integer) --
Number of characters extracted from each page.
DocumentType (list) --
The document type for each page in the input document. This field is present in the response only if your request includes the Byte parameter.
(dict) --
Document type for each page in the document.
Page (integer) --
Page number.
Type (string) --
Document type.
Errors (list) --
Page-level errors that the system detected while processing the input document. The field is empty if the system encountered no errors.
(dict) --
Text extraction encountered one or more page-level errors in the input document.
The ErrorCode contains one of the following values:
Page (integer) --
Page number where the error occurred.
ErrorCode (string) --
Error code for the cause of the error.
ErrorMessage (string) --
Text message explaining the reason for the error.
