Automatic classification and extraction

When you apply a model to a library, Syntex automatically adds the content type and updates the default view with the labels you extracted showing as columns. Then, every time you add or edit a document in the library, Syntex processes the document again, classifying the document and extracting text from it.

By default, Syntex processes a file every time the file is uploaded or edited. If you want Syntex to process new files only and not every time a file is modified, you can change the setting.

To process new files only

Follow these steps if you want Syntex to process new files only.

  1. On the Library settings panel, under Automatic classification and extraction, select New files only.

  2. Select Save. Syntex will now automatically process new files only.

    Even with this setting selected, you can still select updated files and manually process them using the Classify and extract option in the document library.
