Settings

​
unstructured_api_url
string
If specified, overrides the default API URL used for chunker calls. Default: none (uses Unstructured’s internal default).
​
unstructured_api_key
string
If specified, overrides the default API key used for chunker calls. Default: none (uses Unstructured’s internal default).
​
include_orig_elements
boolean
If true, the elements used to form a chunk appear in .metadata.orig_elements for that chunk. Default: false.
​
new_after_n_chars
integer
Soft maximum length of a chunk in characters. Closes a section after reaching approximately this length. Default: none.
​
max_characters
integer
Hard maximum number of characters in a chunk. Default: none.
​
overlap
integer
Number of trailing characters from the prior text-split chunk to prepend to each subsequent chunk formed by splitting an oversized element. Default: none.
​
overlap_all
boolean
If true, applies overlap to chunks formed by combining whole elements, not just oversized ones. Use with caution — this can introduce noise into otherwise clean semantic units. Default: false.
​
contextual_chunking_strategy
string
deprecated
Deprecated. The v1 contextual chunking option is no longer available in the workflow designer and is not recommended. To apply contextual chunking, add a Contextual Chunker node after this chunker. Allowed value: v1. Default: none.
