Hi,

 

I have tried using Alteryx to import PNG files which contains table format. I have tried using Computer Vision tool to extract the details, however the accuracy is low. Is there anybody out there that faced similar situation have already have a ready built workflow to share?

 

Regards.

Well, I guess reading picture or scanned files is one of the most desired solutions, till now there are no 100% solution for it. There are some solutions however they are costy.

There is a new feature in excel that let you import pictures and it converts it to text, after doing it you will be able to import the data into Alteryx and do whatever you want.
