Create an IDP Agent: template, fields, rules

Agents & Automation 1:25 2026-10-07

What you will learn

Transcript

Every week, the same invoices arrive. Someone types the same fields into the next system. A digit slips. The pile keeps growing.

With an IDP Agent, you set that up once. Start from a real document: the engine reads it and suggests templates from the agent catalog. You pick one, with its fields.

Every field has a key, a type, and one prompt in plain language. No training. Then you add rules: the pages to search, a pattern, and what happens when the value is missing.

Then you test it. The values come back as data, with page and position, plus your own check: do the line items add up? Then repeat the run several times in a row, to see whether the result holds.

The next invoice is Spanish, with another layout. The agent still finds the fields: it reads meaning, not coordinates. If a required field is missing and a review queue is set up, a person gets the task.

Run it by hand, or on many documents at once, with a status for each. Or automatically: the document type starts it. Then your ERP gets a webhook and fetches the fields itself.

IDP Agents. Define an agent once, then run it in the app, automatically, through the API, or as an MCP tool in your AI assistant.
