What is the main purpose of the Form Extractor within UiPath?

The Form Extractor in UiPath is specifically designed to work with fixed forms, allowing users to extract structured data from documents that conform to a predefined template. This means that it efficiently captures information such as regular values and simple tables from forms that have a consistent structure, making it ideal for scenarios where data is consistently located at the same position within a form.

For example, when dealing with forms like invoices, tax forms, or applications, where the layout does not change, the Form Extractor can be configured to accurately recognize and extract information like names, addresses, and numerical values. Because the forms are fixed, this method of extraction can significantly reduce errors that might occur with more variable data types.

The other choices refer to aspects not directly associated with the purpose of the Form Extractor. Analyzing unstructured data and classifying documents require different approaches and tools within UiPath. Developing machine learning models is a separate practice altogether that involves a broader set of capabilities and tools.
