Use the Extract activity to extract data from documents of the same type.Add a Classify activity to the Process skill before an Extract activity so your skill extracts data from several types of documents simultaneously.

In the Actions pane, click the Add Skill button and then select the appropriate skills in the Skill Catalog.
You can view the demo documents for a skill by clicking the icon located to the left of a Document skill’s name. If the skill does not have any demo documents, an error message will be displayed (this error will not affect the setup of your skill).

If you cannot find a suitable Document skill in the Skill Catalog, create a new one by following the steps below:a. Click the Create New Skill button at the bottom of the Actions pane.
