API documentation
The OpenAPI for this product (Document Mind / 2022-12-29) uses the V2 RPC-style request body and signing mechanism. For more information about signing, see V2 RPC-style request body and signing mechanism. We provide SDKs for common programming languages. You can download an SDK to call the API without needing to handle the signing process yourself. If the available SDKs do not meet your needs, you can integrate the API using the self-signing method. This process is complex and takes approximately five working days to complete. For expert guidance during the integration, join the service DingTalk group at 1137 000 1915. Before you call the API, you must prepare your Alibaba Cloud account and an AccessKey pair. These credentials are required to access the API using client tools, such as the SDK or the command-line interface (CLI). For more information, see Create an AccessKey pair.
To call the APIs for this product, ensure that the account associated with your AccessKey pair has the permission to access Document Mind. In the RAM console, click Add Permissions, search for the AliyunDocmindFullAccess permission, and then add it. This action grants all AccessKey pairs that belong to the RAM account the permission to access Document Mind. For more information, see Service authentication guide.
If an Alibaba Cloud account does not have this permission, the AccessKey pairs that belong to the account cannot be used to access Document Mind.
