List Evaluation Set Items

Next
Built with
Evaluation sets are collections of files and expected outputs that are used to evaluate the performance of a given processor in Extend. This endpoint will create a new evaluation set in Extend, which items can be added to using the [Create Evaluation Set Item](https://docs.extend.ai/2025-04-21/developers/api-reference/evaluation-set-endpoints/create-evaluation-set-item) endpoint. Note: it is not necessary to create an evaluation set via API. You can also create an evaluation set via the Extend dashboard and take the ID from there.
Create Evaluation Set

Authentication

AuthorizationBearer
Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

Headers

x-extend-api-version"2025-04-21"OptionalDefaults to 2025-04-21
API version to use for the request. If you do not specify a version, you will either receive a `400 Bad Request` or be set to a previous legacy version. See [API Versioning](/developers/api-versioning) for more details.

Request

This endpoint expects an object.
namestringRequired
The name of the evaluation set. Example: `"Invoice Processing Test Set"`
descriptionstringRequired
A description of what this evaluation set is used for. Example: `"Q4 2023 vendor invoices"`
processorIdstringRequired
The ID of the processor to create an evaluation set for. Evaluation sets can in theory be run against any processor, but it is required to associate the evaluation set with a primary processor. Example: `"dp_Xj8mK2pL9nR4vT7qY5wZ"`
