}
This is an asynchronous API endpoint. The initial request returns a jobId and status. You can use the jobId to check the processing status and fetch results.
When using templates, you can provide a templateId to load predefined configurations. Any configuration parameters (schema, extractPerPage, etc.) explicitly specified in the API request will override the corresponding template settings.
