FAQ about Mindee's OCR API
How do I guarantee valid JSON structured format?
With Mindee, you don’t have to prompt a model and hope for clean JSON. You define a data schema for your model (fields, types, and whether they’re lists or single values), and every API response follows that structure.
To make sure the data is safe to load into your systems:
- Use the Mindee SDKs (Python, Node.js, Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby) to get typed objects instead of parsing raw JSON yourself.
- Check confidence scores and required fields. If a value is missing or uncertain (e.g., no invoice number), send it for human review instead of writing it to your database.
- Optionally, add a validation layer such as Pydantic (Python) or Zod (TypeScript) to enforce your own business rules.
