Key Features
1. Document Grouping
Automatically groups pages belonging to the same document in multi-page scans.
Example: A single uploaded PDF containing multiple invoices and delivery notes will be analyzed, and the API will return a JSON mapping each page to its respective document.
See API documentation for implementation details.
2. Document Classification
Classifies business documents by type using AI-powered prediction models.
Supported categories include:
-
Invoice
-
Order
-
Delivery Note
-
And more...
See API documentation for a full list.

4. Deprecated Features in BLU DELTA Document API v2
Several features available in BLU DELTA Capture API v1 are currently not supported in BLU DELTA Document API v2. These include, among others:
- Field-level Confidence values
- Location (bounding box) information
- E-Invoice processing
- Returning a ResultPDF
- Master-Data-Comparison via the BLU DELTA Resource Upload API
- Bar-code and QR-code recognition
For compatibility reasons, Document API v2 continues to return a default Confidence value of 0.85. This is a defined behavior until further notice, as several partner systems cannot handle missing Confidence values. Returning 0 or near-zero values could negatively impact end-user productivity.
Developers are strongly encouraged to design their systems without relying on Confidence values. This ensures forward compatibility with future service versions.
If there is a strong business need for one of the deprecated features, please contact your Account Manager. Feature re-introduction will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
