public final class FormTrainingClient

This class provides a synchronous client to connect to the Form Recognizer Azure Cognitive Service.

This client provides synchronous methods to:

  1. Train a custom model: Train a custom model to analyze and extract data from forms and documents specific to your business using the beginTraining(String trainingFilesUrl, boolean useTrainingLabels) method.
  2. Copy custom model: Copy a custom Form Recognizer model to a target Form Recognizer resource using the beginCopyModel(String modelId, CopyAuthorization target) method.
  3. List custom models: Get information about all custom models using the getCustomModel(String modelId) and listCustomModels() methods respectively.
  4. Polling and Callbacks: It includes mechanisms for polling the service to check the status of an analysis operation or registering callbacks to receive notifications when the analysis is complete.

Note: This client only supports V2_1 and lower. Recommended to use a newer service version, DocumentModelAdministrationAsyncClient and DocumentModelAdministrationClient.

Refer to the Migration guide to use API versions 2022-08-31 and up.

Service clients are the point of interaction for developers to use Azure Form Recognizer. FormTrainingClient is the synchronous service client and FormTrainingAsyncClient is the asynchronous service client. The examples shown in this document use a credential object named DefaultAzureCredential for authentication, which is appropriate for most scenarios, including local development and production environments. Additionally, we recommend using managed identity for authentication in production environments. You can find more information on different ways of authenticating and their corresponding credential types in the Azure Identity documentation".

Sample: Construct a FormTrainingClient with DefaultAzureCredential

The following code sample demonstrates the creation of a FormTrainingClient, using the `DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder` to configure it.

FormTrainingClient client = new FormTrainingClientBuilder()
     .endpoint("{endpoint}")
     .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
     .buildClient();

Further, see the code sample below to use AzureKeyCredential for client creation.

FormTrainingClient formTrainingClient = new FormTrainingClientBuilder()
     .credential(new AzureKeyCredential("{key}"))
     .endpoint("{endpoint}")
     .buildClient();

Method Details

beginCopyModel

public SyncPoller beginCopyModel(String modelId, CopyAuthorization target)

Copy a custom model stored in this resource (the source) to the user specified target Form Recognizer resource.

This should be called with the source Form Recognizer resource (with the model that is intended to be copied). The target parameter should be supplied from the target resource's output from getCopyAuthorization(String resourceId, String resourceRegion) method.

The service does not support cancellation of the long running operation and returns with an error message indicating absence of cancellation support.

Code sample

String resourceId = "target-resource-Id";
 String resourceRegion = "target-resource-region";
 String copyModelId = "copy-model-Id";
 formTrainingAsyncClient.getCopyAuthorization(resourceId, resourceRegion)
     .flatMapMany(copyAuthorization -> formTrainingAsyncClient.beginCopyModel(copyModelId, copyAuthorization))
     .flatMap(AsyncPollResponse::getFinalResult)
     .subscribe(customFormModelInfo ->
         System.out.printf("Copied model has model Id: %s, model status: %s, training started on: %s,"
             + " training completed on: %s.%n",
         customFormModelInfo.getModelId(),
         customFormModelInfo.getStatus(),
         customFormModelInfo.getTrainingStartedOn(),
         customFormModelInfo.getTrainingCompletedOn()));

Parameters:

modelId - Model identifier of the model to copy to the target Form Recognizer resource
target - the copy authorization to the target Form Recognizer resource. The copy authorization can be generated from the target resource's call to getCopyAuthorization(String resourceId, String resourceRegion)

Returns:

A SyncPoller<T,U> that polls the copy model operation until it has completed, has failed, or has been cancelled.

beginCopyModel

public SyncPoller beginCopyModel(String modelId, CopyAuthorization target, Duration pollInterval, Context context)

Copy a custom model stored in this resource (the source) to the user specified target Form Recognizer resource.

This should be called with the source Form Recognizer resource (with the model that is intended to be copied). The target parameter should be supplied from the target resource's output from getCopyAuthorization(String resourceId, String resourceRegion) method.

The service does not support cancellation of the long running operation and returns with an error message indicating absence of cancellation support.

Code sample

// The resource to copy model to
 String resourceId = "target-resource-Id";
 String resourceRegion = "target-resource-region";
 // The Id of the model to be copied
 String copyModelId = "copy-model-Id";

 CopyAuthorization copyAuthorization = targetFormTrainingClient.getCopyAuthorization(resourceId,
     resourceRegion);
 formTrainingClient.beginCopyModel(copyModelId, copyAuthorization, Duration.ofSeconds(5), Context.NONE)
     .waitForCompletion();
 CustomFormModel modelCopy = targetFormTrainingClient.getCustomModel(copyAuthorization.getModelId());
 System.out.printf("Copied model has model Id: %s, model status: %s, was requested on: %s,"
         + " transfer completed on: %s.%n",
     modelCopy.getModelId(),
     modelCopy.getModelStatus(),
     modelCopy.getTrainingStartedOn(),
     modelCopy.getTrainingCompletedOn());

Parameters:

modelId - Model identifier of the model to copy to the target Form Recognizer resource
target - the copy authorization to the target Form Recognizer resource. The copy authorization can be generated from the target resource's call to getCopyAuthorization(String resourceId, String resourceRegion)
pollInterval - Duration between each poll for the operation status. If none is specified, a default of 5 seconds is used.
