2. Build your project

   

1. Create IAM user​

1. Sign in to the AWS console using your AWS account credentials.

2. Open the Identity and Access Management (IAM) service (you can enter IAM in the Find Services search bar).

   

3. In the left-hand navigation panel, click Groups.

   • Before creating an IAM user, create an IAM group. For more information, see Use Groups to Assign Permissions to IAM Users in the IAM Best Practices documentation.

4. Click Create New Group.

   

5. Enter a Group Name and click Next Step at the bottom of the page.

6. Select the policies that you want to attach to the group and IAM user.

   • It's recommended that you follow the Grant Least Privilege guidance in the IAM Best Practices documentation.

   • At a minimum, the Amazon Textract activities require *AmazonTextractFullAccess

   • and AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess.

     

     

     Note:

     Establishing a principle of least privilege ensures that authenticated identities are only permitted to perform the most minimal set of functions necessary to fulfill a specific task, while balancing usability and efficiency. Operating on this principle limits the blast radius - or potential impact - of inappropriate use of valid credentials. The principle of least privilege lets you enforce separation of duties for oversight and governance, and makes auditing the entitlements to your resources much simpler.

7. Review your group details and click Create Group at the bottom of the page.

8. In the left-hand navigation panel, click Users.

9. Click Add user.

   

10. Enter a User name and select Access type - Programmatic access.

    

11. Under Set permissions, click Add user to group and select the group that you created in the steps above.

    

12. Review your user details and click Create user at the bottom of the page.

13. After you create the user, a Success window appears with the IAM user Access key ID and Secret access key.

• Take note of these values, you'll need them when you add the Amazon Scope activity to your projects.
• For more information about your access keys, see Managing Access Keys for IAM Users in the AWS documentation.

2. Build your project​

1. Create a new automation project.

   1. Open UiPath Studio.

   2. Under New Project, click Process (this opens a New Blank Process window).

   3. Enter a project Name, Location, and Description.

   4. Click Create.

      

2. Install the UiPath.Amazon.Textract.Activities package.
   1. In the Design ribbon, click Manage Packages (this opens the Manage Packages window).
   2. Under All Packages, click Go!
   3. In the Search bar, enter Textract.
