• Comparison Type - The type of comparison to use when comparing documents. The following options are available:
  • Line - Compares the documents line by line.
  • Word - Compares the documents word by word.
  • Character - Compares the documents character by character.
• Rules - The list of rules that you want to use to exclude certain sections from comparison. Input the comparison rule output variables you created using the Create Comparison Rule activity.

  Select Open Collection Builder and add the rules as entries.

• ContinueOnFailure - Specifies if the automation should continue even when the activity throws an error. This field only supports Boolean values (True, False). The default value is False. As a result, if the field is blank and an error is thrown, the execution stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project continues regardless of any error.
• Ignore Identical Items - If set to True, identical lines are ignored during comparison.
• Include Images - If set to True, the comparison includes images, as well.
• Ignore Images Location - If set to True, the position and page of images are ignored when comparing the documents.

Sortie

• Differences - Represents a list of differences resulted from the comparison process. Each Difference comprises an Operation, which signals the type of modification (possible values are Equal, Inserted, or Deleted) and a Text element that highlights the specific content correlated with the operation.
• Result - Defines the final result. It displays True if the verification succeeds and the documents are equivalent. It displays False if the verification does not succeed, indicating differences between the documents.
