Now generally available: extract and categorize data in AppSheet with the power of Gemini

What’s changing
AppSheet Enterprise Plus users can now add the new AI Task powered by Gemini, directly into their existing AppSheet automations. This allows AppSheet to automatically extract key information from uploaded photos, parse complex PDFs, and categorize, route, and prioritize incoming requests based on their content. Users can also quickly test individual steps within their workflow using the integrated AI Task Step Testing feature.
Beginning today, AI Task, as well as the “Extract” and “Categorize” functionality are now generally available for incorporation in your AppSheet automations. For more information, check out our Preview announcement.

Additional details
We’ve also made a few additional improvements between preview and general availability:

• AI tasks now support more types of columns and in particular columns of REF types so you can leverage information in linked tables.
• You can now extract information not just from images and PDF files, but also from unstructured text data hosted in your data sources. In other words, you can select Text and LongText columns as inputs to the AI task.
• For admins, the AppSheet admin console now shows how many credits your organization is entitled to, how many have been consumed, how they are being used by your users and your applications. Visit the AppSheet Help Center to learn more.
  Additionally, running inline tests using the AI Task Step Testing feature will count towards your general AppSheet automation limits and entitled credits now that the feature is generally available.
