1
Sign in and pick a business
Open the Documate app and select the business you want to use. All agents, channels, and uploads belong to that business.
2
Create an agent
Go to Agents, create an agent from a template, and review the output schema and instructions. Save your changes.
3
Map the agent on a channel
Open Channels, select your channel, and map the document type to your agent. Copy the channel ID — you will need it for API uploads as
queueId.4
Upload a test file
Go to Files and upload a sample document, or use Test on the agent page. Wait until the file and document reach a terminal status such as Ready.
5
Review the result
Open the document to inspect extracted fields. Optionally configure a webhook under Integrations or the channel settings so your system receives events automatically.
