Test skills directly from the Skill Catalog or through the Try Any Skill portal to confirm they meet your needs before deploying them. Availability of this feature depends on your role. For more information, see [Role-based access control](/vantage/documentation/tenant-admin/tenant-management/role-based-access). To try a skill, do one of the following: * Select the skill from the list (click anywhere except the skill name), and then click **Try Skill** in the toolbar or **Actions** pane. * Open the skill's preview window by clicking the icon in the **Type** column to the left of the skill name, and then click **Try Skill** at the bottom of the window. Each skill opens in a separate browser tab, so you can test multiple skills at once and compare results. To return to the Skill Catalog, close the **Try Skill** tab. ## Try a Document skill When you try a Document skill, processing results for the demo document are displayed automatically. To test with your own files, click **Upload Documents** in the **Actions** pane.

OCR results with highlighted recognized and uncertain words, and per-document statistics below the image ## Use the Try Any Skill portal **Try Any Skill** is a standalone web application for uploading documents and running any skill outside of the Skill Designer. It's useful for quick demos, for testing skills against ad-hoc documents, and for sharing with users who don't work in Skill Designer directly. Access the portal at `https://vantage-.abbyy.com/try-any-skill/`. For example: ```text US theme={null} https://vantage-us.abbyy.com/try-any-skill/ ``` ```text EU theme={null} https://vantage-eu.abbyy.com/try-any-skill/ ``` ```text AU theme={null} https://vantage-au.abbyy.com/try-any-skill/ ``` Log in with your Vantage credentials. The Try Any Skill portal calls the Vantage API, so you can test any skill type from there — not only Document and OCR skills. ## Related topics Discover, publish, and reuse skills across your tenant.
