This endpoint allows you to update the properties of an existing processor.
Path Parameters
The ID of the processor to update.
Body
The new name for the processor.
The new config to update the processor with.
Your config will take one of three shapes depending on the processor type:
Configuration for an extraction processor.
Must be "EXTRACT" for extraction processors. Other supported values:
"CLASSIFY": For classification processors"SPLITTER": For splitter processors
The base processor to use.
The version of the base processor to use.
Array of field definitions to extract from the document.
Unique identifier for the field.
Human-readable name for the field.
Type of the field. Supported values:
string: Text valuesnumber: Numeric valuescurrency: Monetary valuesboolean: True/false valuesdate: Date valuesarray: Lists of values (requires schema)enum: Values from a predefined list (requires enum)object: Nested structure (requires schema)signature: Signature information
Detailed description of the field, including expected content and format.
Required when type is “array” or “object”. Contains nested field definitions.
Custom rules to guide the extraction process in natural language.
Advanced configuration options.
Limit processing to a specific number of pages from the beginning of the document.
Provide a hint about the document type (e.g. “invoice”, “receipt”, etc.).
Define specific key terms or concepts relevant to the document type.
Enable model reasoning insights in the extraction results.
Enable advanced multimodal processing for better handling of visual elements.
Enable citation information for extracted fields.
Enable advanced parsing of figures and diagrams in the document.
Options for controlling document chunking.
Strategy for chunking the document. Supported values:
standard: Default chunking strategysemantic: Content-aware chunking based on document structure
Custom rules for semantic chunking in natural language.
Number of pages per chunk.
Strategy for selecting chunks. Supported values:
intelligent: AI-based selectionconfidence: Select based on confidence scoretake_first: Always use first chunktake_last: Always use last chunk
Configuration for a classification processor.
Must be "CLASSIFY" for classification processors. Other supported values:
"EXTRACT": For extraction processors"SPLITTER": For splitter processors
The base processor to use.
The version of the base processor to use.
Custom rules to guide the classification process in natural language.
Advanced configuration options.
Limit processing to a specific number of pages from the beginning of the document.
The context to use for classification. Supported values:
default max
Enable advanced multimodal processing for better handling of visual elements during classification.
Configuration for a splitter processor.
Must be "SPLITTER" for splitter processors. Other supported values:
"EXTRACT": For extraction processors"CLASSIFY": For classification processors
The base processor to use.
The version of the base processor to use.
Custom rules to guide the document splitting process in natural language.
Advanced configuration options.
Limit processing to a specific number of pages from the beginning of the document.
Method to use for splitting. Supported values:
high_precision: More accurate but potentially slowerlow_latency: Faster but potentially less precise
For Excel documents, split by worksheet.
Response
A true or false value indicating whether the processor was updated successfully or not.
A DocumentProcessor object representing the updated processor. See the DocumentProcessor object for more details.
Error Responses
Will be false if the request failed.
A description of the error that occurred.
