Authorizations

Authorization
string
headerrequired

Sensible uses API keys to authenticate requests. Keep your API keys secure and do not share them publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, etc. Authentication to the API is performed via Bearer Authentication. Provide your API key as the bearer auth value.

Query Parameters

environment
enum<string>
default: production

If you specify development, extracts preferentially using config versions published to the development environment in the Sensible app. The extraction runs all configs in the doc type before picking the best fit. For each config, falls back to production version if no development version of the config exists.

Available options:
production,
development
document_name
string

If you specify the filename of the document using this parameter, then Sensible returns the filename in the extraction response.

Body

application/json
document_url
string
required

URL that responds to a GET request with the bytes of the document you want to extract data from. This URL must be either publicly accessible, or presigned with a security token as part of the URL path. To check if the URL meets these criteria, open the URL with a web browser. The browser must either render the document as a full-page view with no other data, or download the document, without prompting for authentication.
