detect_entities(
    text: BoundedLengthString,
    *,
    config_overrides: Optional[ComprehendMedicalClientConfig] = None,
) -> DetectEntitiesResponse

The DetectEntities operation is deprecated. You should use the DetectEntitiesV2 operation instead.

    A UTF-8 text string containing the clinical content being examined for entities.

Raises:

  • InternalServerException –

    An internal server error occurred. Retry your request.

  • InvalidEncodingException –

    The input text was not in valid UTF-8 character encoding. Check your text then retry your request.

  • InvalidRequestException –

    The request that you made is invalid. Check your request to determine why it's invalid and then retry the request.

  • ServiceUnavailableException –

  • TextSizeLimitExceededException –

    The size of the text you submitted exceeds the size limit. Reduce the size of the text or use a smaller document and then retry your request.

  • TooManyRequestsException –

    You have made too many requests within a short period of time. Wait for a short time and then try your request again. Contact customer support for more information about a service limit increase.
