Asynchronous processing
Results are returned as asynchronous jobs. You submit a diagram for processing and receive a job ID. Poll the job status until it completes, then retrieve the detected annotations or converted images.Supported content
The API works with common engineering diagram formats. Detected annotations include equipment identifiers, connection lines, and other visual elements. You can use these annotations to link diagram content to assets and other CDF resources.Use the annotations API to store and manage detected diagram elements once extraction completes.
Key capabilities
- Detect annotations in P&IDs and process flow diagrams
- Convert diagrams to standard image formats
- Poll job status for async processing results
- Retrieve outputs when jobs complete
