Complete Automation Workflow

This guide shows production-ready patterns for integrating Documind into your automation pipelines. All examples handle the complete workflow including review polling.

Pattern 1: Batch Processing

Process multiple documents with parallel extraction and review handling.

Pattern 2: Scheduled Job

Daily processing with error handling and retry logic.

Pattern 3: Event-Driven Processing

Process documents as they arrive using file system watcher.

Best Practices Summary

  • Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
  • Log all errors with context
  • Have fallback for timeout scenarios
  • Alert on high failure rates
  • Use parallel processing for batch jobs
  • Poll efficiently (10-15s intervals)
  • Cache schema definitions
  • Implement connection pooling
  • Track success/failure rates
  • Monitor review completion times
  • Alert on queue backlogs
  • Log credit usage
  • Store API keys in environment variables
  • Use least-privilege API key scopes
  • Rotate keys periodically
  • Encrypt sensitive extracted data
