PrizmDoc v12.1 - January 5, 2017
Redaction Creator

POST /RedactionCreator

Creates and starts a new RedactionCreator.

A RedactionCreator represents a process that runs on the server which searches a document for text matching a Regular Expression then, based on any matches, creates a new Markup XML document containing redaction markup. The redaction Markup XML that is created by this process can be used with the Markup Burner API to "burn" the redactions into a document.

The server process to create the redaction markup is started by this request, but a response is sent before the process is complete. Use the GET /RedactionCreator/{id} API below to get the state and results of an in-progress or completed RedactionCreator process.

There are two required inputs to create a RedactionCreator:

See the Work File API topic for more information about a WorkFile.

A new Markup XML document will be created that will contain the redaction markup. The new document will be made available by a new WorkFile ID.

By default, RedactionCreator objects will be automatically deleted 20 minutes after they are created.

GET /RedactionCreator/{RedactionCreatorId}

Gets the state and result of an existing RedactionCreator.

Requests can be sent to thus URL repeatedly while state is "processing".

When state is "complete", the new markup XML document containing redactions will be made available by a new WorkFile ID in the output.markupFileId. See the Work File API topic to find out how to download a WorkFile.

If the markup burning process encountered an error, the state property will be "error", the errorCode property will contain an error code string and output will be null.
