Quick Start Guide#

Core Workflow#

1. Install dependencies: On first run, install the ADP CLI tool.
2. Authentication setup: On first run, execute adp config get to check credentials. If not configured, prompt the user to provide an API Key.
3. Get app list: On first run, retrieve the out-of-the-box app list via adp app-id list --app-type 0, find the invoice extraction app, and record its app_id (prefixed with ootb_). For subsequent runs, prefer adp app-id cache.
4. Execute extraction: Run adp extract url <URL> --app-id <invoice-app-id> or adp extract local <file-path> --app-id <invoice-app-id>.
5. Process results: Parse the returned JSON to extract structured fields such as invoice number, date, supplier, buyer, currency, tax amount, total amount, and line items.
6. Error handling: When a command fails, parse the stderr JSON to determine the error type and recovery action.

Step 1: Install ADP CLI#

bash

# Method 1: npm (recommended, cross-platform)
npm install -g @laiye-adp/agentic-doc-parse-and-extract-cli

bash

# Method 2: Shell script (Linux / macOS, when npm is unavailable)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laiye-ai/adp-cli/main/scripts/adp-init.sh | bash

bash

# Method 3: PowerShell script (Windows, when npm is unavailable)
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laiye-ai/adp-cli/main/scripts/adp-init.ps1 | iex

Or download prebuilt binaries from GitHub Releases.

Step 2: Get API Key & Configure Authentication#

Register and obtain an API Key (100 free credits per month + limited-time bonus: 1,000 free invoice extraction pages):

• Global (all other regions): https://adp-global.laiye.com/
• China Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan: https://adp.laiye.com/

bash

adp config set --api-key <your-api-key>
adp config set --api-base-url https://adp.laiye.com
adp config get

---

Step 3: Get the Invoice Extraction App ID#

ADP provides out-of-the-box built-in extraction apps for global invoices/receipts, supporting multiple languages and currencies with no additional configuration required.

App Types#

ADP apps are divided into two categories, distinguished by the app_type field:

app_typeTypeDescription0Out-of-the-box (OOTB)Platform built-in, app_id prefixed with ootb_, ready to use without creation1CustomUser-created extraction apps with user-defined app_id

Invoice recognition is an out-of-the-box app and can be queried using --app-type 0.

Query and Filter Invoice Apps#

bash

# Query OOTB apps only (recommended)
adp app-id list --app-type 0

# Or query all apps
adp app-id list

Find the app whose app_label contains "Invoice", "Receipt", "high accuracy", high-speed extraction in the returned list, and record its app_id:

json

[
  {
      "app_id": "ootb_*****d9e2",
      "app_label": [
        "Invoice",
        "Receipt",
        "global invoices",
        "high accuracy",
        "high-speed extraction"
      ],
      "app_name": "Invoice/Receipt",
      "app_type": 0
    }
]

In the example above, "app_id": "ootb_*****d9e2" is the global invoice extraction app. app_type of 0 indicates an out-of-the-box app; 1 indicates a custom app.

Cache App ID (Recommended)#

After the initial query, prefer using cache for subsequent requests to avoid redundant API calls:

bash

# Use cache for subsequent calls
adp app-id cache

Important: Each account's app_id is unique and fixed — it will not change unless the user explicitly deletes the app. It is recommended that the Agent save the invoice app's app_id in context and reuse it directly in subsequent calls.

---

Step 4: Execute Invoice Extraction#

Single Invoice Extraction (URL)#

bash

adp extract url https://example.com/invoice.pdf --app-id <invoice-app-id>

Single Invoice Extraction (Local File)#

bash

adp extract local ./invoice.pdf --app-id <invoice-app-id>

Single Invoice Extraction (Base64)#

bash

adp extract base64 <base64-string> --app-id <invoice-app-id> --file-name <filename.ext>

Response Example#

ADP automatically supports invoice recognition in 100+ languages across all regions globally and automatically detects currencies. Extraction results are returned as unified structured JSON. The response contains two types of fields: regular fields and table fields (line items).

The following example is a simplified format showing only core fields. The full response also includes field_confidence (confidence score) and references (source location) metadata — see "Common Field Structure" below for details.

Extraction Field Reference#

Note: field_key and field_name are always returned in English. field_value is multilingual — its content reflects the language of the source document (e.g., Chinese invoices return Chinese values, Japanese invoices return Japanese values). Different regions/types of invoices may return different field sets — the following lists all known fields.

Regular Fields:

field_keyfield_name (example)Descriptioninvoice_numberInvoice NumberInvoice numberinvoice_dateInvoice DateInvoice datedue_dateDue DatePayment due datecurrencyCurrencyCurrency (e.g., USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, etc.)supplier_nameSupplier NameSupplier / seller namesupplier_addressSupplier AddressSupplier / seller addresssupplier_vat_numberSupplier VAT NumberSupplier tax ID (e.g., Japan T-prefixed registration number)buyer_nameBuyer NameBuyer / purchaser name (some invoices use customer_name)buyer_addressBuyer AddressBuyer / purchaser addresscustomer_nameCustomer NameCustomer / buyer name (alternates with buyer_name depending on invoice type)customer_vat_numberCustomer VAT NumberCustomer tax ID; returns "No result" when not recognizedsubtotalSubtotalSubtotal amount (before tax; some invoices use total_without_tax)total_without_taxTotal (excl. tax)Total excluding tax (alternates with subtotal depending on invoice type)tax_amountTax AmountTax amountvat_rateVAT RateVAT rate (e.g., 10%, 13%)total_amountTotal AmountTotal amount (including tax)amount_dueAmount DueAmount due (may equal total_amount)

Table Fields (Line Items):

field_keyfield_name (example)Descriptionline_items_item_codeItem CodeProduct / item code; returns "No result" when not recognizedline_items_descriptionDescriptionProduct / service descriptionline_items_quantityQuantityQuantityline_items_unit_priceUnit PriceUnit priceline_items_amountAmountLine amount (some invoices use line_items_total_amount)line_items_total_amountTotal AmountLine total amount (alternates with line_items_amount depending on invoice type)

Common Field Structure#

Each field object contains the following properties:

PropertyTypeDescriptionfield_keystringField identifier (e.g., invoice_number)field_namestringField name (e.g., "Invoice Number")field_valuesarrayList of extracted values (supports multiple values for fields that may have multiple entries, such as line items)field_values[].field_valuestringExtracted value (the actual content extracted from the document)field_values[].field_confidencefloatConfidence score for the extracted value (range: 0.0 to 1.0, where 1.0 indicates highest confidence)field_values[].referencesarrayList of reference points in the document that support the extracted value (e.g., bounding boxes, page numbers, or text snippets where the value was found)line_items_item_codestringCode or SKU of the line item (if applicable)line_items_descriptionstringDescription of the line item (if applicable)line_items_quantitystringQuantity of the line item (if applicable)line_items_unit_pricestringUnit price of the line item (if applicable)line_items_total_amountstringTotal amount of the line item (if applicable)line_items_tax_ratestringTax rate for the line item (if applicable)line_items_taxstringTax amount for the line item (if applicable)

How to distinguish field types: If table_values is present → table field, read from table_values; otherwise → regular field, read from field_values.

Important Notes#

1. Data integrity: When using ADP output, present the returned data as-is. Do not modify, add, or remove any fields during the extraction process.
2. API Key security: Keep your API Key safe and do not share it with unauthorized third parties.
3. File size limit: Maximum 50MB per file.
4. Supported formats: .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .bmp, .tiff, .tif, .pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx
5. App ID reuse: The invoice app's app_id is unique and fixed within an account. It is recommended to save it and reuse directly — no need to query every time.
