Based on the provided error log, it indicates that the URL you are passing to the beginAnalyzeDocumentFromUrl method is not in the correct format.

As you are using beginAnalyzeDocumentFromUrl, the URL input must be in the format of http or https.

To fix the issue please check your source input format and you can check below sample input for reference and testing:

I was able execute beginAnalyzeDocumentFromUrl method with above sample URL.

For more details regarding implementation, you can check this documentation.
