Introduction

This guide shows you how to send a document from Power Automate to your Cradl AI agent for extraction.

​
Before you begin

  • Verify the Cradl AI for Power Automate connector is available in your tenant (through a premium license or custom connector deployment).
  • Prepare a test document to upload when you run the flow.

​
Setting up your Power Automate flow

Follow these steps to set up your Power Automate flow with Cradl AI.
1

Add a Power Automate trigger

In Cradl AI, open your agent and add a new trigger. Choose Power Automate, then select Import from Power Automate. Copy the Client Credentials value from the configuration panel.
2

Add the Extract Data from Document action

In your Power Automate flow, add the Extract data from document action.
3

Create a connection to Cradl AI

In the Client Credentials field, paste the value you copied in Step 1.
4

Configure the action

Open the Extract data from document action settings and choose the Cradl AI Agent that should process the file. For Document, select the binary file content from an earlier step, such as the File Content output from Get file content (OneDrive) or a file supplied by a manual trigger. For Export action, choose the Power Automate export you added to your Cradl AI agent. Optionally, set Title to pass along the file name and extension.
5

Use the extracted fields

After the action runs, the fields from your Cradl AI agent are available as dynamic content in Power Automate. Select these values in later actions the same way you use other outputs from the flow.
Your flow now sends documents from Power Automate to your Cradl AI agent and makes the extracted fields available to later actions.

​
Troubleshooting

  • Run the flow manually with your sample document and review the Run history entry. Expand the Extract data from document action and confirm its status code is 200.
  • If Power Automate reports 401 Unauthorized or 404 Forbidden, reopen the Cradl AI integration, copy fresh client credentials, and update the connection.
  • For other errors, make sure the file format is supported, the document is not encrypted, and your Cradl AI usage limits have not been exceeded. The message under Outputs → Body provides details when validation fails.
