Hi, I’m Andrew from Base64.ai. Today I’m going to show you how to automate document processing with Base64.ai and Zapier.

Here is an image of a  New York driver's license that I have sent to my Dropbox folder.  

I search for Dropbox, and set the trigger event to “New File In Folder”. 

This means whenever a new file is added to this folder, it will activate the Zap.

Next, I search for “Base64.ai” and select the “Scan a document by URL” action. 

Here we harness the power of AI to bridge the gap between a Dropbox folder and a Google Sheet.

To complete our Zap, search for Google Sheets, set its action event to “Create Spreadsheet Row”, and select the data values corresponding to these headers.

Hit “Turn on Zap” and head to your spreadsheet.

As you can see, our Zap has correctly populated the cells with the data extracted from the driver’s license. 

Let’s try uploading another document to the Dropbox folder. Here we will use this sample Ukrainian passport.

Our Zap automatically noticed a new file in the Dropbox folder, used Base64.ai to extract its data, and added it to Google Sheets.
