 ==== Data Extraction ====
 Auto Book's Data Extraction feature automatically captures information from emails, assigning each item to its corresponding data column and storing it in a tab-separated text file.  Its designed both for bilateral and unilateral use. Perfect for extracting purchase order details, it eliminates the need for tedious copy-paste operations.

 In addition to extracting data, it can convert dates found in extracted data to a user-defined format, and project folders can be created with the click on a button based on the extracted data – e.g. C:\Clients\[Clientname]\[Date].[PO-Number]. There's also a convenient Data Viewer which shows the summed values of each column.
-The name "Auto Book" comes from its ability to automatically book purchase data. Find more info on this feature in the [[home|Data Extraction Overview]]. You'll find the documentation in the [[manual|Data Extraction Manual]], although the newest features such as the OpenAI API interface are not covered yet.

 The Data Extraction happens //locally on your computer// (via the Windows Clipboard), so it does not, in principle, create a vulnerability for hacking.

 The new **Clip Manager** revolutionizes how you use your clipboard. It not only makes copy-paste operations more efficient, but also connects your clipboard to an infinite text repository. With what might be the world’s easiest and most flexible search function, you can find any information that’s ever passed through your clipboard within fractions of a second – even from years ago.

 Seeing the Auto Book programming code in action – how countless functions work together to deliver the desired result – lifted my spirits and inspired me to expand its capabilities. This led to the development of additional features, with the new Clip Manager emerging as the most important.
