| 14 | +Quick Start |
| 15 | +----------- |

| 17 | +:: |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | + $ pip install --upgrade google-cloud-vision |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +Authentication |
| 22 | +-------------- |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +With ``google-cloud-python`` we try to make authentication as painless as |
| 25 | +possible. Check out the `Authentication section`_ in our documentation to |
| 26 | +learn more. You may also find the `authentication document`_ shared by all |
| 27 | +the ``google-cloud-*`` libraries to be helpful. |

| 32 | +Using the API |
| 33 | +------------- |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +The Google Cloud `Vision`_ (`Vision API docs`_) API enables developers to |
| 36 | +understand the content of an image by encapsulating powerful machine |
| 37 | +learning models in an easy to use REST API. It quickly classifies images |
| 38 | +into thousands of categories (e.g., "sailboat", "lion", "Eiffel Tower"), |
| 39 | +detects individual objects and faces within images, and finds and reads |
| 40 | +printed words contained within images. You can build metadata on your |
| 41 | +image catalog, moderate offensive content, or enable new marketing |
| 42 | +scenarios through image sentiment analysis. Analyze images uploaded |
| 43 | +in the request or integrate with your image storage on Google Cloud |
| 44 | +Storage. |
