Hi Chandana,

You can find free assets to try out on DX. Here are a few to get you started.

https://digitalexchange.blueprism.com/dx/entry/3439/solution/textract-capability-aws-cloud

Note that most of these APIs provide free usage up to certain number of documents and there may be fee associated for higher usage.

Try to use Rossum AI OCR for the same. It is browser based. It also has trial version for data extraction from various documents and VBO available on DX to connect with BluePrism.

I tried using Rossum, but am facing problem with the  input "fields" type is collection in Upload Documents stage . May i know what data should be stored in this collection(fields in Upload documents stage)

Hello Chandana,

You don't need to configure anything on Upload Documents stage. All you need to give is full path to your document in Data Item-Document Path as Input. After that step over and observe. Rossum has put some informative note stages in between to give the idea about the next action item so refer that as well.

1. Once document uploaded go to Rossum > To review section and validate the document.
2. After that BluePrism will keep looping until you export the document from Rossum web application (You can try this without exporting it)
3. Once you export from Rossum, BluePrism will come out of loop and proceed to next step and give data output from document in collection named as Document Content (Which you can later use in downstream application as per requirement)

As far as I remember Rossum does not provide automatic export and validation in free trial but manual data verification is working very well as of now.

Hope this helps.

Let us know if you still face any issues. Have a great day ahead.
