Intelligent document processing

Use intelligent document processing (IDP) to integrate automated document processing into your end-to-end processes.

About IDP

IDP uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to identify, extract, and organize data from your structured and unstructured documents into a structured format you can use in your processes.

For example, you can use IDP to extract data from invoices and other document types in your document processing workflow.

An overview of intelligent document processing

Configure IDP

Configure IDP for your Camunda 8 setup to make sure IDP can access the required components and credentials.

note

IDP is only supported for Camunda 8 SaaS with the 8.7.0-alpha5 release. Support for Camunda 8 Self-Managed and Camunda 8 Run is planned for delivery with the 8.7 release.

Get started with IDP

Once initial cluster configuration is complete, you can start using IDP in your processes:

  1. Create an IDP application in which to store and manage a set of related IDP projects.

  2. Create and publish a document extraction template for each type of document you want to extract data from.

  3. Integrate your published document extraction template into your processes in Web Modeler.
