Extract from File

Node catalog Transformations

On this page

Extract JSON, CSV, XLSX, ODS, text or PDF text from binary data

Usage and specifics

Select the actual file format: JSON, CSV, XLSX, ODS, text or PDF. PDF extraction reads available text; it does not provide OCR for scans.

Technical type : extract_from_file. Runtime : nodulz.

Credentials and prerequisites

This node defines no dedicated external credential. Remote sources or execution targets may still need their own access credentials.

See the credentials guide if a remote source or execution target requires access.

Parameters

Names below are technical keys. Defaults are not a ready-to-run configuration: complete fields required by your operation. Paths containing [] describe list items; some fields depend on the selected mode.

Parameter	Type	Default	Values / limits
`input`	`string`	`""`	-
`inputEncoding`	`enum`	-	`utf8`, `base64`
`format`	`enum`	`"json"`	`json`, `csv`, `text`, `base64`, `pdf`, `xlsx`, `ods`
`delimiter`	`string`	`","`	-

Initial configuration

Initial catalog configuration example, to adapt before running. Keep secrets in credentials.

json

{
  "input": "",
  "format": "json",
  "delimiter": ","
}

Verification

Test with representative data. Check node output in the inspector and logs, then use editor mapping for downstream fields. A trigger test with a simulated payload does not validate external service delivery.
