Text field Annotation

Text field annotation adds rectangle with a text inside

API usage

There are steps that usage of GroupDocs.Annotation Cloud consists of:

  1. Upload input document into cloud storage and other files, like image annotation (using File API)
  2. Add annotation(s)
  3. Download document with annotations (using File API)
HTTP POST ~/annotation/add

Swagger UI lets you call this REST API directly from the browser.

cURL example

// First get JSON Web Token
// Please get your Client Id and Client Secret from https://dashboard.groupdocs.cloud/applications. Kindly place Client Id in the "client_id" and Client Secret in the "client_secret" arguments.
curl -v "https://api.groupdocs.cloud/connect/token" \
-X POST \
-d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=xxxx&client_secret=xxxx" \
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
-H "Accept: application/json"

// cURL example to add annotation into document
curl -v "https://api.groupdocs.cloud/v2.0/annotation/add" \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \

SDK examples

The API is completely independent of your operating system, database system or development language. We provide and support API SDKs in many development languages in order to make it even easier to integrate. You can see our available SDKs list here.
