Load Taxonomy

UiPath.IntelligentOCR.Activities.TaxonomyManagement.LoadTaxonomy

Turns the taxonomy.json file created with the help of the Taxonomy Manager into a variable that can be further used with other activities.

Properties

Common

• DisplayName - The display name of the activity.

Misc

• Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.

Output

• Taxonomy - The taxonomy you want to load, stored in a DocumentTaxonomy variable. This output can be later used in activities that receive a taxonomy as input.
  Important: In case you use an Intel Xe GPU and Taxonomy Manager is not displayed properly, we recommend updating the graphics driver to the latest version. For more information, please visit this page.

Taxonomy Extension Methods

• Serialize(): Called on a DocumentTaxonomy object, the Serialize() method returns a JSON representation of the object, so that it can be stored and retrieved for later usage.
• Deserialize(String): The DocumentTaxonomy.Deserialize(jsonString) static extension returns a DocumentTaxonomy object, hydrated with the JSON encoded data passed as a parameter.
• GetFields(String): Called on a DocumentTaxonomy object, the GetFields() method called with a DocumentTypeId string returns a list of fields defined within that document type.

The Taxonomy Manager can be used to create and edit a Taxonomy file specific to your current automation project. This Taxonomy file contains user-defined document types, organized in Groups and Categories.

You can further use the Taxonomy file by converting it into a .NET data type with the Load Taxonomy activity, and then passing it as input for activities such as:

• Classify Document Scope
• Train Classifiers Scope
• Train Extractors Scope
• Present Validation Station

The Taxonomy Manager can be accessed only after installing a UiPath.IntelligentOCR.Activities package higher or equal to v1.6.0 as a dependency for your project. Once the package is installed, a Taxonomy Manager button appears on the Ribbon, in the Wizards section.
