Review extracted attributes

Confirm that extracted attribute values appear correctly in your collection.

After creating a new attribute and running the automatic extraction, review the attribute values directly on the collection page to verify that they were created and applied as expected. This step confirms visibility and placement before refining the attribute definition or exporting results.

Before you begin

  • The collection must contain processed documents.
  • Attribute extraction must be complete.

Review your attribute in a collection

  1. Go to the Collections page.

  2. Select a collection that contains processed documents.

  3. Select the Adjust attribute view icon.

  4. Find and select your new attributes.

    A maximum of seven attributes can be added.

  5. Select Apply to populate the page with the selected attributes.

    The collection view with the "Add attribute" selector exposed.

    The page refreshes and displays the selected attributes as column headers, with extracted values shown inline.

    The updated collections page with attribute columns added and populated.
    Position the pointer over an attribute to view the full extracted text.

  6. Optional: Select a document to review it individually.

    The right-hand panel shows all enabled attributes for that document, including extracted text and citations that link to the exact location in the document.

    An individual document selected, exposing the list of attributes.
    Selecting the numbered citation in the attribute opens a view of the document, highlighting exactly where the extraction came from.

What this step confirms

Reviewing attribute values at the collection level allows you to:

  • Confirm the attribute was created successfully.
  • Verify that extraction produced visible results.
  • Identify obvious gaps before refining the attribute.
  • Ensure the attribute is ready for deeper evaluation or export.
