Python SDK for Unsiloed Vision API - Parse, Extract, Classify, and Split documents

Unsiloed Python SDK

The official Python SDK for Unsiloed - a powerful document processing platform that enables you to parse, extract, classify, and split documents with ease.

Features

• Parse: Extract structured content from documents (PDFs, images, etc.)
• Extract: Extract specific data using JSON schemas with citations
• Classify: Classify documents into predefined categories
• Split: Split document pages based on categories
• Both Sync & Async: Choose the client that fits your application

Installation

pip install unsiloed-sdk

Quick Start

Synchronous Usage

Perfect for scripts, notebooks, and traditional Python applications:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key-here") as client:
    result = client.parse_and_wait(file="document.pdf")
    print(f"Total chunks: {result.total_chunks}")

Async Usage

Perfect for FastAPI apps and concurrent processing:

import asyncio
from unsiloed_sdk import AsyncUnsiloedClient

async def main():
    async with AsyncUnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key-here") as client:
        result = await client.parse_and_wait(file="document.pdf")
        print(f"Total chunks: {result.total_chunks}")

asyncio.run(main())

Authentication

Get your API key from the Unsiloed Dashboard.

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

client = UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key-here")

Set as environment variable:

export UNSILOED_API_KEY="your-api-key"

import os
from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

client = UnsiloedClient(api_key=os.getenv("UNSILOED_API_KEY"))

Usage Examples

Parse Documents

Extract structured content from any document:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

# Initialize the client
with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    # Parse a document and wait for results
    result = client.parse_and_wait(file="document.pdf")
    
    # Access the parsed content
    print(f"Total chunks: {result.total_chunks}")
    
    # Get the embed content
    for chunk in result.chunks:
        print(f"\n--- {chunk['embed'][:100]} ---")

Extract Data with Schema

Define exactly what data you need using JSON schema. The property names are the fields you want to extract, and descriptions specify what type of data to look for:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

schema = {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "invoice_number": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Invoice number from the document"
        },
        "date": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Invoice date"
        },
        "total_amount": {
            "type": "number",
            "description": "Total amount"
        }
    },
    "required": ["invoice_number", "date", "total_amount"],
    "additionalProperties": False
}

with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    result = client.extract_and_wait(
        file="invoice.pdf",
        schema=schema
    )

    # Results include confidence scores
    print(f"Invoice #: {result.result['invoice_number']['value']}")
    print(f"Confidence: {result.result['invoice_number']['score']}")
    print(f"Total: ${result.result['total_amount']['value']}")

Advanced Example - Extracting shareholding data:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

schema = {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "Individuals": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Percentage Holding"
        },
        "LIC of India": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "No of Shares Held"
        },
        "United bank of india": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "No of shares held by United bank of india"
        }
    },
    "required": ["Individuals", "LIC of India", "United bank of india"],
    "additionalProperties": False
}

with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    result = client.extract_and_wait(
        file="shareholding.pdf",
        schema=schema
    )

    for field, data in result.result.items():
        print(f"{field}: {data['value']} (confidence: {data['score']:.2%})")

Classify Documents

Automatically categorize your documents:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient

with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    result = client.classify_and_wait(
        file="document.pdf",
        categories=["Invoice", "Receipt", "Contract", "Letter"]
    )

    print(f"Type: {result.result['classification']}")
    print(f"Confidence: {result.result['confidence']}")

Split Documents

Separate multi-document files by page type:

from unsiloed_sdk import UnsiloedClient, Category

categories = [
    Category(name="Cover Page", description="Document cover or title page"),
    Category(name="Main Content", description="Primary document content and body text")
]

with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    result = client.split_and_wait(
        file="report.pdf",
        categories=categories
    )

    # Check if split was successful
    if result.result['success']:
        print(f"✓ {result.result['message']}")

        # Access the generated split files
        for file_info in result.result['files']:
            print(f"File: {file_info['name']}")
            print(f"  Confidence: {file_info['confidence_score']:.2%}")
            print(f"  Download: {file_info['full_path']}")
    else:
        print(f"Split failed: {result.result['message']}")

Async Examples

Concurrent Processing

Process multiple documents at once with async:

import asyncio
from unsiloed_sdk import AsyncUnsiloedClient

async def main():
    async with AsyncUnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
        # Process 3 documents concurrently
        results = await asyncio.gather(
            client.parse_and_wait(file="doc1.pdf"),
            client.parse_and_wait(file="doc2.pdf"),
            client.parse_and_wait(file="doc3.pdf"),
        )

        for i, result in enumerate(results, 1):
            print(f"Document {i}: {result.total_chunks} chunks")

asyncio.run(main())

Async Extract

import asyncio
from unsiloed_sdk import AsyncUnsiloedClient

async def main():
    schema = {
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
            "company": {
                "type": "string",
                "description": "Company name"
            },
            "amount": {
                "type": "number",
                "description": "Total amount"
            }
        },
        "required": ["company", "amount"],
        "additionalProperties": False
    }

    async with AsyncUnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
        result = await client.extract_and_wait(
            file="invoice.pdf",
            schema=schema
        )

        # Access extracted values with confidence scores
        print(f"Company: {result.result['company']['value']}")
        print(f"Amount: {result.result['amount']['value']}")

asyncio.run(main())

Error Handling

from unsiloed_sdk import (
    UnsiloedClient,
    AuthenticationError,
    QuotaExceededError,
    InvalidRequestError
)

try:
    with UnsiloedClient(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
        result = client.parse_and_wait(file="document.pdf")
except AuthenticationError:
    print("Invalid API key")
except QuotaExceededError as e:
    print(f"Quota exceeded. Remaining: {e.response_data}")
except InvalidRequestError as e:
    print(f"Invalid request: {e.message}")

Which Client Should I Use?

Use Case	Client	Example
Scripts, notebooks	UnsiloedClient	client.parse_and_wait(file="doc.pdf")
Flask, Django	UnsiloedClient	client.extract_and_wait(file="invoice.pdf", schema=schema)
FastAPI, async apps	AsyncUnsiloedClient	await client.classify_and_wait(file="doc.pdf", categories=[...])
Concurrent processing	AsyncUnsiloedClient	await asyncio.gather(...)

API Methods

Both UnsiloedClient (sync) and AsyncUnsiloedClient (async) have the same methods:

Parse:

• parse() - Start parse job
• get_parse_result(job_id) - Check job status
• parse_and_wait() - Parse and wait for completion ⭐ Most common

Extract:

• extract() - Start extract job
• get_extract_result(job_id) - Check job status
• extract_and_wait() - Extract and wait for completion ⭐ Most common

Classify:

• classify() - Start classify job
• get_classify_result(job_id) - Check job status
• classify_and_wait() - Classify and wait for completion ⭐ Most common

Split:

• split() - Start split job
• get_split_result(job_id) - Check job status
• split_and_wait() - Split and wait for completion ⭐ Most common

Tip: Use the *_and_wait() methods for simpler code. They handle polling automatically.
