SharePoint AND Computer Vision OCR

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by theodore 2

I am having trouble building a Flow that connects a SharePoint document library with Computer Vision API. 

 

The objective is to run OCR on an image as it is created on SharePoint and then update the file's metadata with the detected text. 

 

The Flow as I have it runs without glitch but no text is returned.

    Hi @ bangorkeith,

     

    Could you please share a full screenshot of the configuration of your flow?

    I need to know what you have filled in the "Image Source" field and "Image" field of the "Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to Text" action.

     

    Please share more details so we could try to help you.

     

     

     

    Regards,
    Alice Zhang
