Text/string extraction

[James89]

Hi Alteryx Community,

I would like to ask whether has anyone is able to specifically identify the wanted text in PDF and get Alteryx to extract those relevant strings. Same applies to images as well.

Would appreciate if you could share the workflow and the thought process to the workflow.

In dire need of help. Thanks!

As suggested by @Yoshiro_Fujimori , The Alteryx Intelligence Suite includes tool groups of Computer Vision, which can read text from PDF, images.
but still the parsing of text is greatly depending on your data structure on the PDF.
