Document Understanding API guide

Last updated Apr 29, 2026

Authentication and Authorization

Before consuming the APIs, you must authorize your API client by passing a bearer token as the Authorization request header. To obtain the bearer token, you need to register your client as an External Application in your account and then use the obtained credentials to get an access token. For more information on how to generate app secret and manage external applications, check the Managing External Applications page.
