This n8n workflow provides a ready-to-use API endpoint for extracting structured data from images. It processes an image URL using an AI-powered OCR model and returns the extracted details in a structured JSON format.

Use Cases

  • Document OCR – Extract details from ID cards, invoices, receipts, etc.
  • Text Extraction from Images – Process screenshots, scanned documents, and photos.
  • Automated Form Processing – Digitize and capture information from paper forms.
  • Business Card Data Extraction – Extract names, emails, and phone numbers from business cards.

How It Works

  1. Send a GET request with an image URL and define the required extraction parameters.
  2. The image is converted to base64 for processing.
  3. The AI model (Gemini API - Flash Lite) extracts relevant text.
  4. The response returns structured JSON data containing only the requested fields.

Features

✔️ No-Code API Setup – Easily integrate into any application.
✔️ Customizable Extraction – Modify the request parameters to fit your needs.
✔️ AI-Powered OCR – Uses advanced models for accurate text recognition.
✔️ Automated Processing – Ideal for document processing and digitization.

Integration

  • Works with any frontend/backend system that supports API calls.
  • Can be used for workflow automation in CRM, ERP, and document management solutions.
  • Supports further customization based on specific OCR requirements.
