Discover Extractors and Extract a Document
with UiPath
Resolve a project, discover extractors, digitize, and extract with polling.
- List the available Document Understanding projects to resolve the project ID for the supplied project name.
- List the extractors configured in the resolved project to confirm the target document type can be extracted.
- Submit the document for digitization to obtain the document ID used by the extraction step.
- Start an asynchronous extraction job for the digitized document using the supplied document type and capture the request ID for polling.
- Retrieve the extraction result by its request ID. Loop back while the job is still NotStarted or Running; otherwise record the final result.
What you'll need to have ready
- projectName: Display name of the Document Understanding project to resolve.
- documentBase64: Base64-encoded document content to digitize.
- contentType: MIME type of the document (e.g. image/jpeg, application/pdf).
- documentTypeId: Document type identifier to apply during extraction.
