Can Alteryx integrate with document parsing platforms such as ABBY, Docparser or Nanonets

Hello,

 

I am currently exploring whether Alteryx can connect to ABBYY, Docparser, or Nanonets via API to send documents uploaded to the server. The objective is to route the PDF to a specific prebuilt template within ABBYY, Docparser, or Nanonets (e.g., "2024 K1"), extract the defined data using the 2024 OCR Template, and return the extracted information for further manipulation.

 

The goal is to significantly reduce the time spent building a perfect PDF parser within Alteryx by leveraging modern AI-powered OCR solutions that utilize anchor points, similar to what platforms like UiPath offer.

 

Thank you,

answers your question. If there is an API --- you can build a solution using the download tool.

Yep, API connection should make it easy.
