I have extracted data from a Google Drive file with the .docx extension using webhook - Get
But I cannot extract data from the PDF file,
I converted the drive file link to an extension that contains PDF, but the link does not work in the webhook,

I have attached pictures for clarification


What can I do to extract specific data from a file in Google Drive?

 

Hi @Mhamed Samy I think you need to use a tool before your last step in order to extract data from the PDF. Are you using any OCR tools?


Hi @fiona819,

Good day for you,

I already use the file-text tool from Zapier, and I use the OCR tool and webhook, but they gave me the the same result, I want to know is there any tool in Zaper that can extract text from a file in the Arabic language.


@Mhamed Samy Can you send me an example of the file with the Arabic language if it is not sensitive? 


You can extract data from a file by uploading the file to your drive to convert the file formatting from PDF to Document then we can use a code by JavaScribt To be able to extract the entire text.

You can follow these steps:

  1. Upload the file to your GDrive.
  2. Use the code in JS to extract the text.
const response = await fetch(inputDatat"text"]);
const text = await response.text();
const words = text.split(" ");
output = { result: words.slice(0, 3000).join(" ") };

Then you will be able to successfully extract the text.
