# azure-ai-contentunderstanding-py

Multimodal extraction across documents, images, audio and video through one Azure client — Microsoft-authored, with an explicit trigger list.

## Install

### Claude Code

```bash
npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-ai-contentunderstanding-py
```

## Best for

Teams already on Azure that need structured extraction from mixed media, not just PDFs — the case where a single-format parser leaves half the corpus unread.

## Not ideal for

Local or offline processing. It teaches an agent to write correct Azure SDK code, so it needs Azure credentials and sends content to the service.

## About

Azure AI Content Understanding SDK for Python. Use for multimodal content extraction from documents, images, audio, and video. Triggers: "azure-ai-contentunderstanding", "ContentUnderstandingClient", "multimodal analysis", "document extraction", "video analysis", "audio transcription".

## Compatibility
