Summary

Convert a document file from a binary input asynchronously by uploading it to the Docling Serve API, waiting for the conversion task to complete, and retrieving the converted document content.

Inputs

  • Input Binary Field (required) — Specify the name of the binary property in the input item that contains the file to convert. Defaults to 'data'.
  • Additional Options — Configure conversion behaviors such as OCR processing, table extraction, image inclusion, output formats, timeouts, and enrichment features (code, formulas, charts, pictures). These options customize how the document is processed and converted.

Output shape

a JSON object representing the converted document result

This operation runs asynchronously: it uploads the binary file, polls the conversion task status until completion or failure, and then returns the final conversion result. The returned JSON includes the converted document data according to selected options.
