Quick start guide on how to use CLOUD OCR SDK to recognize a simple image and get a result. 
 
First, you need to register on https://cloud.ocrsdk.com.
On the main page, press the “ADD NEW APPLICATION” button and create a new application. 
 
Once, the application is created, the application password will be generated automatically and send to your email.

Next, download Postman in order to send requests to the Cloud OCR SDK.
