      description: 'This API takes an educational document such as a degree certificate, provisional certificate, diploma or marksheet as input and returns the academic details printed on it, such as the institute, university or board, degree, field of study, grade and passing year. Fields that are not present on the document, or that could not be read reliably, are omitted from the response.

        We offer three distinct operational approaches:

        1) Use a file directly along with consent.

        2) Use a base64 code along with consent.

        3) Use a file URL along with consent.

        The choice must be between a file, base64 code or a file URL. For a single side of the document, only one of the three can be used at a time. The reverse side is optional and follows the same rule.
