Checkbox extraction in Affinda allows you to extract important information on forms, contracts, and other structured documents where selections or options are indicated using checkboxes. Affinda supports 2 types of Checkbox Extraction:

Label

Use this when one or more options can be ticked, returning the label (text) of each checked box for the relevant category.Label Checkbox example

True/False

Use this when there is a single checkbox, returning True if it is checked and False if it is not. This field type will not have a ‘rectangle’ on the document.True/False Checkbox example

​
When adding checkboxes as a new field, existing documents will need to be reparsed for the model to identify the ticked checkbox on the document.
