# Examples

> Complete workflows you can copy: the graph, the code to create and run it, and a real response

Every example is one workflow, end to end: the graph as JSON and as SDK code, how to upload a document and read the run, a trimmed real response, and the tips that matter for that document type. Pick the one whose shape matches your problem. The nodes it uses are on every card.

## The three shapes

Every example above is one of three graphs. [Parse](/guides/nodes/parse) alone returns the document as markdown and layout blocks. Parse into [Extract](/guides/nodes/extract) returns the fields you defined, each with a confidence and the evidence it came from. [Classify](/guides/nodes/classify) or [Split](/guides/nodes/split) in front of Extract handles a pile that holds more than one kind of document. Add [Validate](/guides/nodes/validate) to check the values and [If/Else](/guides/nodes/if-else) to route on them.

## Before you start

* Get an API key at [app.anyformat.ai](https://app.anyformat.ai) and export it as `ANYFORMAT_API_KEY`.
* Every example uses the same three calls: [create a workflow](/api-reference-v3/workflows/create), [upload and run](/api-reference-v3/workflows/upload-and-run), and [get the run](/api-reference-v3/runs/get).
* The SDK examples need `pip install anyformat` or `npm install @anyformat/sdk`. The [Quickstart](/guides/quickstart) walks through the first workflow.
* The [Nodes overview](/guides/nodes/overview) lists every node, what it returns and what it costs.
