Not able to Extract Text from Putty

Automation Studio

Hi team,

I am not able to extract text from Putty. I used “Text Extractor” activity. It is not showing any error but giving “Null” as output.
Can anyone please help me through this.

Thanks,

I’m using “Tesseract” option. It is giving Null as output.
Other than this, it is asking to provide API.

Hi,

Abby Cloud / Google Vision and Mocrosft Vision are paid API and you will have to register in Google and Microsoft site to use there API,

Tesseract is an open source OCR. Try using some text transaformation

Hi Amit,
I tried “Tesseract” OCR in “Text Extractor”. While “configuring filters”, it is giving the following output:-

When I TestRun, it gives Blank output.

Also, the text to be extracted is dynamic. Would it be able to extract dynamic data?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

Try using different filter option available to see what gives best output. It will handle dynamic data as long as reference image is fixed.

Hi,

This issue is resolved. I exported Putty session output in a Log file instead of copying/extracting text from screen.
