Document summary is an AI-powered assistant that helps you create a summary for one or a maximum of 100 documents in .pdf format. You can upload PDF files to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) and use the Document summary API to create a document summary.

Upload PDF

You can upload a PDF file to CDF one of the following ways:

  • Go to CDF > Industrial tools > Data explorer > Files and select Upload.
  • Use the Python code.

Create summary

Once the document is uploaded, we can start creating the summary.It may take some time before the document has been fully processed and ready, so we wrap the API call in a while-loop, so that we can retry until we get our answer.
