OCR Web Service
Optical character recognition service for image OCR, processing logs, account credentials, and remaining-page balance.
Suited to OCR integrations that perform document recognition through SOAP, retrieve processing logs by date, and audit remaining pages.

What Snow can do with OCR Web Service
These are the OCR Web Service actions available to the apps you build with Snow. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these on its own.
Retrieve OCRWebService account information including remaining pages, subscription plan, and expiration date. Use this tool to check your account status before large OCR jobs — exhausted page quotas will cause OCR_WEB_SERVICE_RECOGNIZE to fail mid-run. Returns details about your subscription including pages remaining and plan expiration. If credentials are invalid or stale, retrieve fresh user_name and license_code via OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_CREDENTIALS before retrying. Requires valid OCRWebService credentials (username and license code).
Tool to call SOAP Recognize operation. Use when performing OCR on an image to retrieve text, output document, word coordinates, and errors. Consumes page quota per call; returns HTTP 429 when limits exceeded. Check quota via OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION before large jobs; batch large PDFs in ~25–50 page chunks.
Tool to extract OCRWebService credentials (user_name, license_code) from connection metadata. Always call this before invoking OCR_WEB_SERVICE_RECOGNIZE or OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION rather than reusing cached values, as credentials may become stale. Use OCR_WEB_SERVICE_GET_ACCOUNT_INFORMATION to verify account status and quota before submitting large jobs.
Tool to retrieve OCR processing logs for a date range on your account. Invalid credentials or bad date ranges return empty data rather than an error, so an empty result may indicate incorrect inputs rather than no logs.
