Why enabling markdown output disables query fields?

I'm testing 2024-02-29-preview version of Document Intelligence REST apis. It looks like query fields get disabled if you pass the outputContentFormat=markdown. In order words, the whole "documents" field is not returned in the "analyzeResult" response.
Here is the same document done with markdown enable on the left and disabled on the right. Notice the missing documents field in the left response.
I need both query fields and markdown output. What could I do?

Please allow me sometime will check internally and get back to you on this. Are you working with SDK/ Rest API?

2024-04-22T19:57:38.5966667+00:00 @Arman , Have you tried with the query field request? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/document-intelligence/concept-query-fields?view=doc-intel-4.0.0#query-fields-rest-api-request

2024-04-23T00:14:57.2866667+00:00 @VasaviLankipalle-MSFT I am trying the same thing (see my request URI below and read the question carefully).
I am not using the SDK because there isn't one for Elixir. I am saying enabling markdown output make document intelligence not include query fields in its response which does not make sense. I want both the markdown output and query fields in the same response.
https://2024-04-12.cognitiveservices.azure.com/documentintelligence/documentModels/prebuilt-layout:analyze?api-version=2024-02-29-preview&features=queryFields&outputContentFormat=markdown&queryFields=TrusteeAcnNumberThe above request URI will not include the query fields in its response while the request below does include them. The only difference is the
outputContentFormathttps://2024-04-12.cognitiveservices.azure.com/documentintelligence/documentModels/prebuilt-layout:analyze?api-version=2024-02-29-preview&features=queryFields&queryFields=TrusteeAcnNumber -

2024-04-23T00:30:43.9833333+00:00 I am using the same request URI as per the documentation you have linked to and I am not using the SDK because there isn't one for Elixir. Please read this reply carefully.
I am saying when
outputContentFormat=markdownis included in the URI, the response back won't include the query fields in it (see the missingdocumentsfield on the left side of the included screenshot). Here are two example request URIs that demonstrate the problem I am describing:https://2024-04-12.cognitiveservices.azure.com/documentintelligence/documentModels/prebuilt-layout:analyze?api-version=2024-02-29-preview&features=queryFields&queryFields=TrusteeAcnNumber&outputContentFormat=markdownThe above URI does not include query fields in its response (because the
documentsfield is missing) but the URI below will include query fields in its response (because thedocumentsfield is included).https://2024-04-12.cognitiveservices.azure.com/documentintelligence/documentModels/prebuilt-layout:analyze?api-version=2024-02-29-preview&features=queryFields&queryFields=TrusteeAcnNumberThis makes no sense. I would like the Document Intelligence API response to include both markdown output and the query fields results. Here is Document Intelligence response for the above examples respectively.

In this screenshot you can see the response is missing the "fields" tab while a query field is defined and the
contentFormatismarkdown.In this second screenshot you can see the response includes the "fields" tab while a query field is defined but the
