Manually Triggered OCR for Google Drive Receipts

Effortlessly initiate OCR on Google Drive receipts to transform chaotic images into organized data, streamlining financial tracking and enhancing productivity with n8n.

Manual Trigger

Complex Trigger

This n8n workflow allows users to manually initiate the optical character recognition (OCR) process for receipts stored in Google Drive. Upon activation via a manual trigger, the workflow is designed to retrieve receipt documents from a specified Google Drive location. These documents are then sent to an external OCR service, likely through an HTTP Request node, which extracts relevant data such as vendor names, dates, and amounts. The primary goal is to automate the data extraction from physical or digital receipts, transforming unstructured image data into structured, usable information. This enables efficient financial record-keeping, expense tracking, or integration with accounting systems, all initiated with a simple click within n8n.
