Create a new automation starting from a file
Automate your document processing tasks by using the Extraction Automation Builder to create a Studio Web workflow. You only need a document to start with, then you can use the suggested, pre-configured activities.
Select Create automation from the main page of Document
UnderstandingTM for Automation CloudTM to access the Extraction Automation Builder.
Perform the following steps to initiate a new extraction automation:
- Upload a document. Once the
document is uploaded, the document type is automatically detected, with a 0-100%
confidence. Manually select the document type if the automatic detection was
incorrect.
Note: Make sure that the document's format is either JPG, PDF, or PNG. The document can have a size of maximum 14 MB and 20 pages.
Special characters, such as # or &, are not supported in the name of the file.
- Expand the Optional configurations menu for advanced settings.
- Add a custom project name and description.(optional).
- Choose if the extracted data should be validated or not (optional).
- Select Create Workflow.
Once you create a new workflow, you can view it by performing the following steps:
- Access Studio Web.
- Select the Projects tab.
- Select your automation project.
Once opened, your project should look like this:
You can now run your project so that data can be extracted and validated.
- Select Run to run the project.
- Open Action Center and assign the action to yourself. The running workflow is suspended until you complete the task in Action Center.
- Select Resume to resume running your workflow.
- Once completed, you can check all the extracted
data in the right panel.
