This document explains the Extract to Table node, which converts unstructured text into organized data in Google Sheets.
Node Inputs
Required Fields
- Text: Content to extract data from

Schema will automatically be generated to extract values for name, website and contact from the provided input.
Optional Fields
- Extract Multiple Rows: Enable for list-type data
- Manual Columns: Add data points for some columns manually instead of having them extracted by the AI model.
