Client Creation

DocumentAnalysisClient

import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.DocumentAnalysisClient;
import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.DocumentAnalysisClientBuilder;
import com.azure.core.credential.AzureKeyCredential;

DocumentAnalysisClient client = new DocumentAnalysisClientBuilder()
    .credential(new AzureKeyCredential("{key}"))
    .endpoint("{endpoint}")
    .buildClient();

DocumentModelAdministrationClient

import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.administration.DocumentModelAdministrationClient;
import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.administration.DocumentModelAdministrationClientBuilder;

DocumentModelAdministrationClient adminClient = new DocumentModelAdministrationClientBuilder()
    .credential(new AzureKeyCredential("{key}"))
    .endpoint("{endpoint}")
    .buildClient();

With DefaultAzureCredential

import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;

DocumentAnalysisClient client = new DocumentAnalysisClientBuilder()
    .endpoint("{endpoint}")
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .buildClient();

Core Patterns

Extract Layout

import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.models.*;
import com.azure.core.util.BinaryData;
import com.azure.core.util.polling.SyncPoller;
import java.io.File;

File document = new File("document.pdf");
BinaryData documentData = BinaryData.fromFile(document.toPath());

SyncPoller<OperationResult, AnalyzeResult> poller = 
    client.beginAnalyzeDocument("prebuilt-layout", documentData);

AnalyzeResult result = poller.getFinalResult();

// Process pages
for (DocumentPage page : result.getPages()) {
    System.out.printf("Page %d: %.2f x %.2f %s%n",
        page.getPageNumber(),
        page.getWidth(),
        page.getHeight(),
        page.getUnit());
    
    // Lines
    for (DocumentLine line : page.getLines()) {
        System.out.println("Line: " + line.getContent());
    }
    
    // Selection marks (checkboxes)
    for (DocumentSelectionMark mark : page.getSelectionMarks()) {
        System.out.printf("Checkbox: %s (confidence: %.2f)%n",
            mark.getSelectionMarkState(),
            mark.getConfidence());
    }
}

// Tables
for (DocumentTable table : result.getTables()) {
    System.out.printf("Table: %d rows x %d columns%n",
        table.getRowCount(),
        table.getColumnCount());
    
    for (DocumentTableCell cell : table.getCells()) {
        System.out.printf("Cell[%d,%d]: %s%n",
            cell.getRowIndex(),
            cell.getColumnIndex(),
            cell.getContent());
    }
}
