AnalyzeSyntax Processor
Part of the GCP Natural Language processor family
This processor analyzes an input string and breaks it down into sentences and tokens (which, in most cases, are words). Each token has a plethora of information about it, including tense, quantity, person, and many more. An extensive list is provided in the Data Output section.
Properties
All of our Natural Language processors also include these common properties.
This processor does not have any unique properties outside of the common ones.
