Is Google Cloud Vision API deprecated?


While browsing some documentation for Google Cloud Vision, I came across a page describing a deprecation that will happen at the end of this month: https://cloud.google.com/vision/automl/docs/deprecations.

I am not certain if I am impacted by this. I only use full_text_annotation and text_annotations from Cloud Vision API for doing OCR, but I'm not sure about their product names and whether this announcement would impact what I'm currently doing...

Can someone confirm whether or not I would be impacted? Thanks!


Solution

  • Vision API is in active development. The most recent model upgrades were December 5, 2023 which became the default models in March 2024. https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/release-notes

    AutoML Vision is a separate product that was moved to Vertex.
