Download all documents action

Use the Download all documents action to download the extracted results from an IQ Bot server that were created by running a Bot with the Upload Document action.

IQ Bot extracts fields from documents and exports them as CSV files. This action can also download any unclassified, untrained, and invalid documents to your local directory.

  3. In the Document status, select the appropriate status for the documents.
    • Success: Documents have been processed and are in .csv format.
    • Invalid: Documents were marked as invalid during the validation process.
    • Unclassified: Documents could not be classified into any groups.
    • Untrained: Documents were classified into new groups during processing and require training.
    • Fail: Documents that failed to process and require re-processing. A document reflects Document status as Fail if an exception occurs during data extraction, validation, or storing of the final output to the database.
    Unprocessed documents in Invalid, Unclassified, Untrained and Fail folders are available in their original format. For example, if your input documents were in a .pdf format, the output in the above folders are obtained in the .pdf format as well.
