+document = {

+    id: 1,
+    type: 'post',
+    attributes: {
+      title: 'Title 1',

+
+The entire document can be parsed without specifying any options:
+```ruby
+ActiveModelSerializers::Deserialization.jsonapi_parse(document)
+#=>
+# {

+#   date: '2015-12-20',
+#   author_id: 2,
+#   second_author_id: nil
+#   comment_ids: [3, 4]
+# }
+```
+
+and fields, relationships, and polymorphic relationships can be specified via the options:
+
+```ruby
+ActiveModelSerializers::Deserialization
+  .jsonapi_parse(document, only: [:title, :date, :author],
+                           keys: { date: :published_at },
+                           polymorphic: [:author])
