# Introduction

> Parser Expert offers a powerful API that allows you to seamlessly integrate document parsing capabilities into your systems and workflows. With our API, you can automate document processing, programmatically control parsing, and receive real-time notifications via webhooks. This enables efficient data handling and streamlined integration with your existing infrastructure.

## Key Features

* **Automated Document Processing**: Upload and process documents through our secure API.
* **Programmatic Control**: Take full control over the parsing process by leveraging our API endpoints. Customize parsing settings and retrieve parsed data programmatically.
* **Real-time Webhook Notifications**: Receive parsed data and updates on document processing tasks directly via webhooks, streamlining your workflow with real-time notifications. **Synchronous API response is also available.** Contact us for details.

## Initial Setup

You make a request, and the result is sent via a webhook. Authentication is managed through an API key, or you can poll data after uploading. To get started:

1. **Obtain an API key:** Navigate to Dashboard -> Integration -> New API Key.
2. **Create a data bucket:** Go to the dashboard and select a predefined template to create a data bucket. Either define an existing bucket ID or generate a new one. Get the Bucket ID by visiting Manage Bucket.

To make the API call, we provide two endpoints:

1. **Upload Content:** Use the endpoint `/v1/upload` to upload a document or provide a webpage URL. Refer to the [Upload Document API](endpoint/upload) for more details.
2. **Extract Content:** Use the endpoint `/v1/extracts` to get extracted content. Refer to the [Get Extracted Data API](endpoint/get) for more details.

<Note>
  If you need more options to process documents through our API, please contact our support team at [support@parser.expert](mailto:support@parser.expert) to request the API specification and discuss your specific requirements.
