Vantage provides export options for document fields, text, and images.

​
Export field values (Fields tab)

​
CSV output for repeating objects

If a document contains repeating objects (repeating fields, repeating groups of fields, tables), Vantage exports them as separate files. The naming scheme is:
  • Parent CSV file: <Applied_skill_name>.csv
  • Child CSV files for repeating objects: <Field_path>_<random 7-character identifier>.csv
  • If the child CSV filename would exceed 250 characters, the alternate scheme is used: <Field_ID>_<random 7-character identifier>.csv
If a repeating structure is nested within a group, its name appears as New Group/New Table. In the child filename, the slash is replaced with an underscore (for example, New Group_New Table_055fe8c.csv).

​
CSV file format

  • The field names are written into the first row.
  • Columns are comma-separated.
  • Encoding is UTF-8 with BOM.
  • Empty instances of repeating fields or groups, and empty table rows, are not exported, so the resulting CSV has no empty rows.
  • Values of image fields are empty in the CSV file.

​
CSV output in a shared folder

When exporting to a shared folder, the parent CSV file is saved in the transaction folder. If the transaction contains multiple documents of the same type, Vantage generates a separate CSV file for each:
  • A numeric postfix starting from 2 is added to the CSV filename.
  • A subfolder is created in the transaction folder for child CSV files, named <Applied_skill_name>_<N> or <Applied_skill_name>_fields_<N> (if the JSON Values only export option is enabled), where N is the sequential document number in the transaction (starting from 2 when there’s more than one document).
  • For repeating objects, the name of the child CSV file is specified in the parent CSV file’s field value.

​
Export document text (Text tab)

Selecting Text only for JSON, XML, or ALTOXML makes export to DOCX, XLSX, and PPTX unavailable. The Text only and Preserve document structure options cannot differ across JSON, XML, and ALTOXML. Setting one updates the same option for the others. Exported text reflects any field-value changes made by the Manual Review operator during manual review.

​
Text output in a shared folder

When exporting to a shared folder, all files are saved in the transaction folder. Numeric postfixes starting from 2 are added to filenames when there’s more than one document of the same type in the transaction.

​
Export document images (Image tab)

For each PDF export option, you can choose between Smaller file size (default) and Maximum quality. Smaller file size uses Mixed Raster Content (MRC) compression, which picks optimal compression separately for text, pictures, and background.

​
Image output in a shared folder

When exporting to a shared folder, a subfolder is created for each document in the transaction:
  • The subfolder name is <Applied_skill_name>_<N>, or <Applied_skill_name>_fields_<N> if the JSON Values only export option is enabled. N is the sequential number of the document in the transaction (starting from 2 when there’s more than one document).
  • Within the subfolder, a Pages subfolder stores the JPG files, named page_<N>.jpg, where N is the page number.
  • PDF and TIFF files are saved in the transaction folder.
  • Numeric postfixes starting from 2 are added to filenames when there’s more than one document of the same type.

​
General naming scheme

Most exported files contain <Applied_skill_name> in their names, which is one of:
  • The name of the last Document skill applied to the document.
  • The name of the last Classification skill applied, if no Document skill was applied.
  • Unknown if no Document or Classification skills were applied, even though at least one exists in the Process skill flow.
If there are multiple output files and export to a shared folder is configured, incrementing numbers are appended to filenames to keep each name unique.

​
Error output

If a transaction does not complete successfully, Vantage generates an Error.json file containing:
  • Transaction identifier
  • Transaction status (Failed)
  • Error message
  • Array of all source file identifiers and names in the transaction
Exported data is stored for 2 weeks by default, per the retention policy.
