IDP applications

Create and manage your IDP document extraction templates in an IDP application.

Create an IDP application

To create an IDP application:

1. In a Web Modeler project, select Create new > IDP application to open the Create an IDP application modal.

   
   • Name: Enter a name for the IDP application.
   • Select a cluster: Select the cluster you want to use for modeling and testing your document extraction.

2. Click Create to create the IDP application.

3. You can now create document extraction templates inside your IDP application folder.

note

• Camunda recommends using a development (dev) cluster for your IDP applications.
• You must configure the required connector secrets on the selected cluster.
• You cannot change the selected cluster for the IDP application once it has been created.

IDP application clusters

The following requirements and limitations apply to IDP application clusters:

Requirement/limitation	Description
Connector secrets	You must configure the required connector secrets on the selected cluster.
Cluster health	IDP applications and projects are only fully operational when linked to a healthy, active cluster. You can select an unstable or unhealthy cluster when first creating an IDP application, and change to a stable cluster once available.
Document handling	When creating an IDP application folder, you can only select a cluster that supports Camunda document handling. For example, the cluster must be version 8.7 or higher.
Changing cluster	You cannot change the selected cluster once the IDP application has been created.
