Dynamic PDF Extraction Setup for Variable Page Count and Form Changes

taylormgruendel

Hi all,

 

I'm working with Alteryx Intelligence Suite to extract data from a 117-page report. Currently, I'm using the image template on each individual page for the extraction to work properly. However, the PDF may change, potentially having only 100 pages with some forms altered. Is it possible to set something up dynamically to handle this?

 

Look forward to your thoughts!

The best thing to do then is to read in everything and parse what you need from there! Find logical ways to find the data you need, and let the workflow work for you

You can also pass the Image to Text into the Template tool for table extraction, but that may/may not work depending on what you are trying to extract
