Base Fields types to use as context:

  • Text (plain)

  • Text (formatted)

Regular Expression

Add your regular expression that you want to extract the context source for. If you do not set a working regular expression, this will fail. Use regex101 to figure out if your regular expression works correctly.

Possible example use cases:

  • You have a big unformatted text with some text between bullet points that you want to extract into multiple text fields.
  • You want to scrape a website for all link titles and store them in a text field, by just giving the link. Can be done together with the AI Interpolator Scraping Bot.
  • You want to extract certrain patterns from a PDF, Excel or Word file and store them into multiple text fields. Can be done together with the AI Interpolator ConvertAPI.
