Document Understanding-specific configuration

Reference for the documentunderstanding configuration properties in cluster_config.json in Automation Suite.

documentunderstanding is a property in the Automation Suite's configuration file, cluster_config.json. It contains configurable values that control the behavior of the Document Understanding service. The installer generates the default values. Additional changes can be made to further configure the Document Understanding service.

If you need to change any settings related to Document Understanding, the documentunderstanding section in cluster_config.json can be edited and the installer can be re-run.

Alternatively, the same changes can be made in the UiPath® app in ArgoCD.

Configuring Service Principal authentication for SQL

When using SQL Authentication with an Azure Active Directory Service Principal for the database connection, you must explicitly add an advanced_configuration section to the documentunderstanding block in cluster_config.json. Replace your-tenant-id with your Azure tenant ID.
