FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Extract PDF Links:

Where does the link list go?

The link list goes beside the PDF in your chosen folder. You also choose a naming rule that includes the PDF's filename and revision.

Will the list include email links or links inside the PDF?

No. The CSV includes external web addresses starting with http or https. It leaves out email links and links within the document.

What if the PDF has no web links?

You still get a CSV beside the PDF with a clear no-links-found note, so you know the run finished.

What happens if a PDF cannot be read?

The document owner gets its filename and the reason to review. Failed or incomplete extractions stay open for another attempt.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
