AI → Extract Entities

AI-generated

Overview

The node provides an entity extraction feature under the AI resource. It analyzes a given text input to identify and extract named entities such as people, locations, organizations, dates, and other relevant information. This is useful in scenarios like processing customer feedback, extracting key information from documents, or automating data entry by recognizing structured data within unstructured text.

For example, given the input text "John Smith from New York works at OpenAI," the node will detect entities like the person name "John Smith," the location "New York," and the organization "OpenAI."

Properties

Name Meaning
Text Content The text content to analyze for entity extraction. Example: "John Smith from New York works at OpenAI"

Output

The output contains a JSON object with the extracted entities from the input text. Each entity typically includes details such as the entity type (e.g., person, location, organization), the exact text matched, and possibly additional metadata depending on the underlying service's response.

If the node supports binary data output, it would be related to any attachments or files processed, but for this operation, the focus is purely on JSON textual data representing recognized entities.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication to the external AI service endpoint.
  • The node sends a POST request to the /ai/entitydetection endpoint of the configured base URL (https://prod.0codekit.com).
  • Proper network access and valid credentials are necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Missing or invalid API key credential can cause authentication failures.
    • Empty or improperly formatted text input may result in no entities detected or errors.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent reaching the external API endpoint.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors indicate issues with the provided API key; verify and update credentials.
    • Validation errors suggest required properties like "Text Content" are missing or empty; ensure input is correctly set.
    • Timeout or connection errors imply network issues; check internet connectivity and firewall settings.
