Hey, MindStudio team!

I have been receiving an “undefined” response from the Extract Text block. The URL references a valid PDF. Here is a screenshot.

This is the Agent ID: 4c7fd7db-39a9-4ba1-87fd-219a9965b341.

The workflow to inspect in this case is: ohioRichmondHeightsAgenda

Am I doing something wrong? Or is there a problem with the block?

Thank you for taking a look!

This should be fixed now. There was an issue inferring the file type from that URL, so it wasn’t able to correctly figure out that it was a PDF.
