Configuring the export of data from ABBYY FlexiCapture to Appian

Each Document Definition includes one or more export profiles to be used for exporting document images and data.

• ABBYY FlexiCapture (Appian 12) 12 (Appian 11) 11 Project Setup Station (required if you are using ABBYY FlexiCapture Distributed Edition).
