How can you create an Azure Function to analyze uploaded PDFs using Generative AI

Question

With the help of a code example, can you explain to me how you can create an Azure Function to analyze uploaded PDFs using Generative AI?

Answer 1

To create an Azure Function to analyze uploaded PDFs using Generative AI, you can use the following steps:

• Set up the Azure Function: Create a new HTTP-triggered function in your Azure Function App.
• Install dependencies: Add libraries for PDF processing (PyPDF2 or pdfminer.six) and for calling the Generative AI model (like Azure OpenAI or OpenAI's API).
• Write the function code: Process the PDF, extract text, and analyze it using the Generative AI API.

Here is the code snippet you can refer to:

In the above code, we are using the following:

• Accepts a PDF via HTTP POST.
• Extracts its text.
• Sends the text to a Generative AI model for analysis.
• Returns the analysis result.

Hence, by referring to the above, you can create an Azure Function to analyze uploaded PDFs using Generative AI.
