@ Prebuilt Models
Model ID; Purpose
prebuilt-layout; Extract text, tables, selection marks prebuilt-document; General document with key-value pairs prebuilt-receipt; Receipt data extraction prebuilt-invoice; Invoice field extraction prebuilt-businessCard; Business card parsing prebuilt-idDocument; ID document (passport, license) prebuilt-tax.us.w2; US W2 tax forms
@ Core Patterns
@ Extract Layout
import com.azure.ai.formrecognizer.documentanalysis.models.*;
import com.azure.core.util.BinaryData;
import com.azure.core.util.polling.SyncPoller;

page.getWidth(),
page.getHeight(),

// Lines
for (DocumentLine line : page.getLines()) {
System.out.println("Line: " + line.getContent());
}
// Selection marks (checkboxes)
for (DocumentSelectionMark mark : page.getSelectionMarks()) {
System.out.printf("Checkbox: %s (confidence: %.2f)%n",
mark.getSelectionMarkState(),
mark.getConfidence());
}
}
// Tables
for (DocumentTable table : result.getTables()) {

table.getRowCount(),
table.getColumnCount());
for (DocumentTableCell cell : table.getCells()) {

cell.getColumnIndex(),
cell.getContent());
}
}
@ Analyze from URL
String documentUrl = "https://example.com/invoice.pdf";
SyncPoller<OperationResult, AnalyzeResult> poller =

@ Analyze Receipt

DocumentField merchantName = fields.get("MerchantName");
if (merchantName != null && merchantName.getType() == DocumentFieldType.STRING) {

@ General Document Analysis

// Key-value pairs
for (DocumentKeyValuePair kvp : result.getKeyValuePairs()) {

@ Compose Models

@ Manage Models

@ Document Classification
@ Build Classifier
Map<String, ClassifierDocumentTypeDetails> docTypes = new HashMap<>();
docTypes.put("invoice", new ClassifierDocumentTypeDetails()
.setAzureBlobSource(new AzureBlobContentSource(containerUrl).setPrefix("invoices/")));

@ Classify Document

tools
Build AI agents that interact with computers like humans do - viewing screens, moving cursors, clicking buttons, and typing text. Covers Anthropic's Computer Use, OpenAI's Operator/CUA, and open-source alternatives.
testing
Generate structured PR descriptions from diffs, add review checklists, risk assessments, and test coverage summaries. Use when the user says "write a PR description", "improve this PR", "summarize my changes", "PR review", "pull request", or asks to document a diff for reviewers.
tools
Use when working with comprehensive review full review
