I’m trying to create a custom node that leverages Mistral’s Document OCR model, but I’m not able to do so. I’d like to use Mistral’s because From what research I’ve done, it’s the best-in-class model for this. Here’s what I see when I’m trying to create the custom node: ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex027/uploads/gumloop/original/2X/e/e35552d6cb7b0323b6d8c5fbbe6253ff63b8bfa3.png) This is when I pasted the Python from their documentation site here: [Basic OCR | Mistral AI](https://docs.mistral.ai/capabilities/OCR/basic_ocr/) I’m trying to analyze construction drawing documents, hence the need for SOTA pdf reading models ---

Hey @samhbarton – I cut a ticket to add Mistral packages to our dev environment so you can use those, I’ll keep you posted. ---

Hey @samhbarton – We added the packages for Mistral on the Run Code and Custom Node environments, let me know if it works as expected now 🙂 ---
