A Cn2data API

FiVal

A closer look at every upload.

Files are part of everyday work. FiVal helps Cn2data applications check those files before putting them to use.

FiVal keeps uploads separate, checks for problems, and passes along approved content when it is ready.

One shared approach to checking files

FiVal is a reusable internal service (an API) for Cn2data applications. It gives different products a consistent way to handle uploaded documents, with checks suited to each application's needs.

For example, a career advisor app can use FiVal to read the text from an uploaded résumé.

How it works

  1. Keep uploads separate

    FiVal holds new files in a private waiting area while checks are carried out.

  2. Check for problems

    FiVal checks the file's type and size, looks for damaged or unsupported content, and scans for malware.

  3. Prepare approved content

    FiVal extracts usable text from supported documents and releases content only after all required checks pass.
