Google Vision OCR¶
Class: GoogleVisionOCRBlockV1
Source: inference.core.workflows.core_steps.models.foundation.google_vision_ocr.v1.GoogleVisionOCRBlockV1
Detect text in images using Google Vision OCR.
Supported types of text detection:
text_detection: optimized for areas of text within a larger image.ocr_text_detection: optimized for dense text documents.
You need to provide your Google Vision API key to use this block.
Type identifier¶
Use the following identifier in step "type" field: roboflow_core/google_vision_ocr@v1to add the block as
as step in your workflow.
Properties¶
| Name | Type | Description | Refs |
|---|---|---|---|
name |
str |
Enter a unique identifier for this step.. | ❌ |
ocr_type |
str |
Type of OCR to use. | ❌ |
language_hints |
List[str] |
Optional list of language codes to pass to the OCR API. If not provided, the API will attempt to detect the language automatically.If provided, language codes must be supported by the OCR API, visit https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/languages for list of supported language codes.. | ❌ |
api_key |
str |
Your Google Vision API key. | ✅ |
The Refs column marks possibility to parametrise the property with dynamic values available
in workflow runtime. See Bindings for more info.
