How do i access my Form Recognizer Custom Model , from my python code without using the key based authentication. I would like to use Managed Identity type authentication

Rajashekar Seelam (Harman Connected Services Inc) 0 Microsoft Vendor

I was able to create a custom model and label my data in Azure Form Recognizer Studio, the python code that is generated by the Form Recognizer studio on the right side section, contains key based authentication where we need to specify the Form Recognizer Studio's key's . The problem is key based authentication is disabled for me. And I am insisted to use Managed Identity type authentication.

Can someone share the sample code on how i can use the Custom Model that i created in Form Recognizer Studio , also I want to know if I can place the PDF files (for which i need to extract the data) in my local machine , or should I place them in the Blob storage container ? . However i tried few methods from internet it did not work.

Any suggestions or guidance will be of great help.

Thanks & Regards,

Rajashekar

Hi @Rajashekar Seelam (Harman Connected Services Inc),

Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum!

To use the custom model created in Azure Form Recognizer Studio with Managed Identity authentication, you'll need to ensure Managed Identity is enabled on the environment where your code runs, such as an Azure VM or Azure App Service. Managed Identity allows secure access without storing credentials. As of now, there is no such sample code to share with you.

For more info see: Managed Identity

Regarding PDF file placement:

You can analyze PDF files stored locally on your machine during development using appropriate Azure SDKs.

For production or scalable solutions, consider using Azure Blob Storage to store PDFs, which integrates seamlessly with Azure services like Form Recognizer.

I hope you understand! Thank you.
