2.90:Data Extractor (Concept)

Data Extractors isolate and return information from text data on a page. Data extractors are used in a variety of ways, including (but not limited to):

• Classify documents
• Find data on a page you wish to store outside of Grooper
• Separate documents

There are three types of Data Extractors:

• Data Type
• Data Format
• Field Class

All have configurable properties to leverage information on the page, control how data is extracted, collate extraction results, get around imperfect text data, and format results the extraction returns.
