how to extract information from PDF File using Power Automate

Question

HI, I trying to build the flow that trigger when new email receive with attachment and find out the attachment is invoice or not. for that I research some google article and find out to use AI builder in Power automate. I am the admin of the power automate platform but not sure how to check that AI builder Add-on in installed in our organization we paid for it not. Also from the admin central -> Environment -> Setting -> product -> Features - > AI builder is turn on. however In Power automate there is a option for AI hub but on top of the screen that I am using free trial version which I dont want to use. so I have following questions about AI builder

 

1. how can I find out , Do I have AI Builder add-on ? do I have to purchase?
2. Do I need global permission to install AI Builder add-on ?
3. is there any other ways I can find out the attached document invoice or not without using AI builder? and how?

 

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

To determine if you have the AI Builder add-on and whether you need to purchase it, you can check your license status in Power Automate. Press Ctrl+Alt+A to view your license information. If you find that you are on a free trial version, you may need to upgrade to a paid plan to access the full features of AI Builder.

Regarding permissions, typically, global admin permissions are required to install or manage add-ons like AI Builder in your organization.

If you want to identify whether an attached document is an invoice without using AI Builder, you could consider other methods such as using keywords in the file name or content analysis through custom logic in Power Automate, but these methods may not be as effective as using AI Builder's capabilities.
