> [!CAUTION]
> **Caution** : Document AI Warehouse is deprecated and will no longer be available on Google Cloud after January 16, 2025. To safeguard your data, migrate any documents currently saved in Document AI Warehouse to an alternative like Cloud Storage. Verify that your data migration is completed before the discontinuation date to prevent any data loss. See [Deprecations](https://docs.cloud.google.com/document-warehouse/docs/deprecations) for details.

<br />

You must specify either a regional or multi-regional [location](https://cloud.google.com/about/locations) for data storage and document processing.

Document AI Warehouse supports the following multi-region locations:

- `us` (United States)
- `eu` (Europe)

## Locations

Document AI Warehouse offers you some control over where the resources for your
project are stored and processed. In particular, when you
[provision and initialize the resources](https://docs.cloud.google.com/document-warehouse/docs/quickstart),
you must choose a location to store and process your data.

By default Document AI Warehouse stores and processes resources in a **US**
location.
If you choose the **European Union** location, Google will store your
data and process it only in the European Union. You and your users can access
the data from any location.

## Setting the location using the API

You must specify your processor's location whenever you send a processing
request via the API.

For example, if your processor is configured to store and process your data in
the European Union, then use the URI `eu-contentwarehouse.googleapis.com`:

| Method / endpoint format ||
|---|---|
| `Create document` | - `https://eu-contentwarehouse.googleapis.com/v1/projects/$PROJECT_ID/locations/eu/documents` |
| `Search document` | - `https://eu-contentwarehouse.googleapis.com/v1/projects/$PROJECT_ID/locations/eu/documents:search` |
