Run Eduction

Eduction identifies and extracts entities from text, based on a pattern that you define. An entity is a word, phrase, or block of information. A pattern might be a dictionary, for example a list of people or places. Alternatively, the pattern can describe what the entity looks like without having to list it explicitly, for example a regular expression that describes an address or telephone number. After entities are extracted the text is written to the document fields that you specify. For more information about Eduction, refer to the IDOL Eduction User Guide.

You can run Eduction on document fields using the Eduction task.

NOTE: To use the Eduction task you must have a license for Eduction and the relevant grammar files, and specify the host name and ACI port of your License Server in the CFS configuration file.

You can run the Eduction task using the Post parameter. The parameters that are passed to the task are specified in a named section of the configuration file. For example:
