Azure/azure-sdk-for-python azure-ai-formrecognizer

1.0.0b1 (2020-04-23)

Version (1.0.0b1) is the first preview of our efforts to create a user-friendly and Pythonic client library for Azure Form Recognizer.
This library replaces the package found here: https://pypi.org/project/azure-cognitiveservices-formrecognizer/

For more information about this, and preview releases of other Azure SDK libraries, please visit

Breaking changes: New API design

New namespace/package name:
- The namespace/package name for the Form Recognizer client library has changed from
  azure.cognitiveservices.formrecognizer to azure.ai.formrecognizer
Two client design:
- FormRecognizerClient to analyze fields/values on custom forms, receipts, and form content/layout
- FormTrainingClient to train custom models (with/without labels), and manage the custom models on your account
Different analyze methods based on input type: file stream or URL.
- URL input should use the method with suffix from_url
- Stream methods will automatically detect content-type of the input file
Asynchronous APIs added under azure.ai.formrecognizer.aio namespace
Authentication with API key supported using AzureKeyCredential("<api_key>") from azure.core.credentials
New underlying REST pipeline implementation based on the azure-core library
Client and pipeline configuration is now available via keyword arguments at both the client level, and per-operation.
See README for a link to optional configuration arguments
New error hierarchy:
- All service errors will now use the base type: azure.core.exceptions.HttpResponseError
