PDF - Data Extraction Using Automation Anywhere

Hi All


Data Extraction using Automation Anywhere is very easily if we compare with other tool such as Blue Prism , Work fusion , UI path it's not so easy


In  Work Fusion  we can read the PDF by converting the PDF to HTML extra cost and extra effort .




 Use case


1. Extract some data from the PDF such as  First Name , Last Name etc


2 Pass these Information to another system may be Windows's, Web , Mainframe etc.




Automation Anywhere


1 . Open the AA client -- double click the PDF Integration


2   Select the option  Extract Form field


3 Provide the PDF file path ( We can set this to be dynamic using variable


4 If PDF is password protected provide the user name and password we can also set the variable


5 Click on Add Button


6 PDF file will be uploaded and selected the value you want to extract and save it into variable


5 Pass the extracted value of variable in another application


AA code
