im sure the request and response messages exist somewhereā€¦being able to view them should be able to help with troubleshooting?..

ā€¦or if u have a better solutionā€¦

Thanks man

" To get it to work, you now have to provide the CV API key which you can get from your Cloud Platform licensing tab."

What if we have on-premise installations of Orchestrator and CV and would still like to utilize UiPathā€™s screen OCR? We donā€™t have a cloud platform for our enterprise because weā€™re on-prem. Do we need to keep juggling community edition CV keys from cloud.uipath.com? Do they expire? Any additional info on this since almost two years ago? Thanks in advance.

Hi @Vaelaar, UiPath Screen OCR is now included in the Linux on-premise installation, so updating your server to the latest version should solve your issue. Alternatively, you can set the UseLocalServer property to True which enables the UiPath Scren OCR to run on your local machine (slower and with a slightly worse quality output, but it all depends on how heavy your needs are).

Hi, @Bogdan_Sultana! Thanks for the reply ā€“ are you referencing the latest version ofā€¦ Orchestrator? Or CV? Just wondering which on-prem, Linux installation you are referencing and if itā€™s the same for any non-Linux installations.

Thanks again.

Hi, @Vaelaar, I was referencing CV. Only the Linux CV on-prem server has the UiPath Screen OCR now, but weā€™re working on releasing an identical Docker-based server for Windows in 22.4, so stay tuned; this will have all the features in the latest models, including table detection and Screen OCR.

Thank you Bogdan!

Hello,

I am using ā€œGet OCR Textā€ activity with the ā€œUiPath Screen Ocrā€ in UiPath Studio

When running it with debug file, it works, but if sometimes it returns an error that there is no API key

Any idea why this happens? if an API key is required, how does it work at all without one?
