How to read password protect file using Document Understanding Framework.
Currently, when i try to read such file then it throws System.Exception error at digitize document.

I understand that we can use read pdf activity for password protected pdf but i want to specifically use Document Understanding Framework.

Hello @Harshit_Tanted1,

One approach would be:

  • remove password using the PDF activities package
  • process document through the DU framework on the file from which passwd protection has been removed
  • delete the passwd un-protected file at the end.

Hope this helps,

Ioana

Do you have the owner password?

Either way, we will study how we can handle this. Will add it to our roadmap.
