Extract PII

​

Overview

Using AnyParser, you can extract PII from your documents, including

• Name
• Phone Number
• Address
• Email Address
• Linkedin URL
• Github URL
• Summary

​

Setup

Refer to the Quickstart guide to install the AnyParser SDK and get your api key.

First, set up your AnyParser client.

from any_parser import AnyParser

ap = AnyParser(api_key="...")

Then, use the anyparser_pii method, passing in the following:

• file_path (str): the path to the local file

pii_result, total_time = ap.extract_pii(file_path="/path/to/your/file")

This will return two things:

• pii_result (dict): Dictionary with the keys corresponding to PII types, and the values extracted from the document
• total_time (str): the time elapsed in seconds

​

Full Code

from any_parser import AnyParser

ap = AnyParser(api_key="...")

local_file_path = "/path/to/your/file"

pii_result, total_time = ap.extract_pii(local_file_path)

​

Output

A dictionary containing Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
