Form Recognizer 4.0.0-beta.1 Changelog

Breaking Changes

  • This package targets Azure Form Recognizer service API version 2021-09-30-preview and newer. It is not compatible with the older Form Recognizer service API versions (2.0 and 2.1). To continue to use Form Recognizer API version 2.1, please use major version 3 of the client package (@azure/ai-form-recognizer@^3.2.0).
  • FormRecognizerClient has been replaced by DocumentAnalysisClient.
  • The new beginExtractLayout method replaces the previous beginRecognizeContent method and its -FromUrl counterpart. Rather than a FormPageArray, the new method produces an object that has properties for pages, tables, and styles.
  • The new beginAnalyzeDocuments method replaces the form recognition methods of the previous client. It provides a single method that can analyze documents using any model ID, including prebuilt models. It replaces beginRecognizeCustomForms, beginRecognizeReceipts, beginRecognizeBusinessCards, beginRecognizeInvoices, and beginRecognizeIdentityDocuments, as well as all of their -FromUrl counterparts. Rather than an array of forms, the new method produces an AnalyzeResult (an object with several fields, described below).
  • Analysis using models trained without labeled training data is no longer supported by this package. This use-case is now provided by the prebuilt (generic) document model (see “New Features” below).
  • The language option has been renamed to locale, and it accepts a wider variety of locale codes (such as “en-US” for United States English) as well as two-letter language codes (such as “fr” for French).
  • The pages option is now a single string instead of an array of strings. Multiple page ranges may be specified by separating them with commas.
  • In many output types, boundingBox has been replaced by a list of boundingRegions, which may contain a bounding box and page number. This is useful for objects that may span multiple pages.
  • FormTrainingClient has been replaced by DocumentModelAdministrationClient.
  • The new beginBuildModel method replaces the previous beginTraining method. The new method and underlying service API do not support training a model using unlabeled training data. Labeled data are required to build a custom document model using the new SDK and service API.
  • The new beginComposeModel method replaces the beginCreateComposedModel method.
  • The getCopyAuthorization method no longer requires the target resource name and region, instead requiring only a model ID/name.
  • The getModel and listModels methods replace the getCustomModel and listCustomModels methods, as the new methods support prebuilt models as well as custom models. They no longer produce any information about models that did not succeed (if a model creation operation failed, it will not be included in the output of listModels and cannot be retrieved with getModel by model ID).
  • Custom models no longer have a name that is distinct from the model ID (more accurately, the model ID and name have been unified).
  • You must now specify a model ID to create a model (whether composed, copied, or built). Previously, the Form Recognizer service would generate a GUID for the newly-created model. Now, the model ID may be any text (so long as it does not start with “prebuilt-“), and it must be provided when the model is created.
  • The ModelInfo type (previously CustomFormModelInfo) has been redesigned. It no longer contains trainingDocuments, and it has a property called docTypes that contains the information previously contained in submodels, but with a different shape. Please refer to the documentation for more information, as this type has changed significantly.
  • The structure of many output types has changed. The full list of changes is extensive and discussed in depth in the migration guide. The following are some of the changes:
  • When analyzing a document, the output is no longer an array of RecognizedForms. All analysis methods—including custom/prebuilt model analysis, layout, and the generic document model—produce an AnalyzeResult or a subset thereof. The AnalyzeResult has fields for pages, tables, styles, entities, keyValuePairs, and documents. The beginExtractLayout and beginExtractGenericDocument methods produce subtypes (LayoutResult and GenericDocumentResult respectively) of AnalyzeResult that contain only those fields that are produced by that model. The list of changes within these types is extensive, as they have been redesigned. Please consult the documentation for more information.
  • The new type AnalyzedDocument replaces RecognizedForm. It does not contain a pages property, as pages are now a top-level property of the AnalyzeResult.
  • The new type DocumentPage replaces FormPage. It does not have a tables property, as tables are now a top-level property of the AnalyzeResult.
  • The DocumentLine type (replacing FormLine) no longer has a words property, as words is now a property of the DocumentPage. The DocumentLine instead contains spans which can be used to correlate DocumentWords to DocumentLines, as words are no longer required to be part of a line.

Key Vault - Keys 4.4.0-beta.2 Changelog

Features Added

  • Added support for KeyClient.getCryptographyClient(keyName, options) which provides a simple way to create a CryptographyClient for a given key (identified by its name).
  • An optional keyVersion property may be used in the options parameter to create a cryptography client targeting a specific key version. The latest version is used by default.
  • Added support for automated key rotation in Azure Key Vault.
  • Added KeyClient.rotateKey to rotate a key on-demand.
  • Added KeyClient.updateKeyRotationPolicy to update a key’s automated rotation policy.
  • Added JsonWebKey.key_ops property to JsonWebKey in addition to the existing JsonWebKey.keyOps property in order to comply with the JSON Web Key spec.

Monitor OpenTelemetry Exporter 1.0.0-beta.5 Changelog

Bugs Fixed

  • Fixed issue with SDK version field not being populated correctly.

Monitor Query 1.0.0 Changelog

Breaking Changes

  • Renamed ErrorInfo to LogsErrorInfo, which now extends the Error class and code as an additional property. Removed all the other properties.
  • query method in LogsQueryClient renamed to queryWorkspace
  • query method in MetricsQueryClient renamed to queryResource
  • Renamed the status types in LogsQueryResultStatus. Partial to PartialFailure and Failed to Failure.
  • Renamed timeGrain in MetricAvailability to granularity
  • Renamed TimeInterval to QueryTimeInterval
  • Updated constants in Durations to camel-case.
  • Removed credentialOptions.credentialScopes property in LogsQueryClientOptions since scopes other than default are not supported yet.
  • Removed throwOnAnyError flag from LogsQueryOptions and LogsQueryBatchOptions
  • Removed the error classes BatchError and AggregateBatchError
  • Updated LogsQueryBatchResult object to be a list of objects with the following possible types:
  • LogsQueryPartialResult
  • LogsQuerySuccessfulResult
  • LogsQueryError
  • Updated LogsQueryResult object to be of type LogsQuerySuccessfulResult or LogsQueryPartialResult

Features Added

  • Enabled browser support
  • Added different result objects LogsQueryPartialResult, LogsQuerySuccessfulResult or LogsQueryError based on the success scenarios for log queries.

Bugs Fixed

  • Updated listMetricNamespaces signature to return the list of appropriate MetricsNamespaces object type
