Azure form recognizer - Identifying Page number and map Page number along with the tables

Is there a way to map the page number along with the tables, as we have to extract from a table which spans across multiple pages?

Hi, thanks for reaching out. The Layout API has "pages" parameter that enables you to specify pages for multi-page documents. The results would include information such as page number, page results, number of tables on each page. Hope this helps, otherwise, please elaborate a little more so we can provide better guidance. Thanks.

Basically i am trying to use OCR form tools to train the model for a multi page document for which the table data spans across multiple pages. How am doing is, am marking tables in each page(in my case, 5 page document) as a separate table(table 1, 2 3 ,4 and 5 ) and training it.
while training the model, am getting the problem as some of the tables in certain pages for which the confidence score is just 0%. the system is not recognizing those tables on certain pages.

When i try to analyze the document with the model been trained, respective page table data has been retrieved only for first 2 pages and rest of the tables modelled for Page3, 4 and 5, its trying to pull the data from the table in wrong page(Page 2 in my case)

Am using Custom Form - Analyze Form, API to extract the data.

Can you confirm if your table has fixed or variable number of rows? If so, did you ensure to configure table tags accordingly? Also, did you ensure to tag cell values after defining each table tag? Here are additional tips to keep in mind.

It has a variable number of rows. We have used Configure table tables tags. I could not able to navigate to the link which you have mentioned above.
