Language used for OCR. If no language is specified, English eng is taken as default.

Is Overlay Required
If true, returns the coordinates of the bounding boxes for each word. If false, the OCR'ed text is returned only as a text block (this makes the JSON reponse smaller). Overlay data can be used, for example, to show text over the image.
Result Format

Specify how the response should be mapped to the table output. The following formats are available:

Raw Response: Returns the raw response in a single row with the following columns:

  • body: Response body
