Good afternoon, I need to build a flow that will look at a PDF file, identify certain text in a certain area of the PDF, correspond that text to a company email address, and email the PDF to that address. Is this possible? Thank you in advance.
Yes it is possible
If it is scanned pdf then
Open pdf using run application activity
Then use extract text from pdf
Then you can split the text of files whatever you want by using regex. Parse text activity
Use send mail activity to send mail give that variable to send mail activity or send outlook mail activity
Hope this helps

If it is a scanned pdf
you need to use the run application activity to open the file and then extract text from OCR
if it is native pdf then you can use directly extract text from pdf
then use parse text with the help of regex you can extract the fields that you need
then using the send mail activity you can send an email by attaching the pdf to the mail id you have extracted from the pdf(Which will be stored in a variable).
