How does Parseur send data to Uncanny Automator?

Parseur POSTs the extracted fields to an Uncanny Automator incoming webhook. You create a recipe with the webhook as its trigger, copy the URL into a Parseur webhook export, and every parsed document then runs that recipe in real time.

Is there a native Parseur connector for Uncanny Automator?

No, and none is needed. Uncanny Automator's incoming webhook trigger accepts the POST that Parseur sends, which is why this works without a dedicated connector.

Do I need the Pro version of Uncanny Automator?

Incoming webhooks are a Pro feature of Uncanny Automator, so the trigger side of this setup needs a Pro licence. Check the current feature list on their site before building the recipe.

What can a recipe do with the parsed fields?

Anything the recipe's actions support, including creating users and posts, updating custom fields, enrolling learners, and sending notifications, using the extracted values as the data.

Do I need to write PHP?

No. Parseur extracts the fields by point and click, and the recipe maps those fields to WordPress actions inside Uncanny Automator.

Can Parseur send data from a PDF attachment?

Yes. Parseur reads PDF and scanned attachments alongside the email body, so a form or invoice arriving as a file can drive the recipe.

What happens if my site is unreachable when a document arrives?

Parseur retries failed webhook deliveries automatically and can fire an Export Failed event so you are alerted. The parsed document stays in Parseur and can be reprocessed.

Can one document trigger more than one destination?

Yes. Parseur can run several exports for the same document, so the same parsed email can drive a WordPress recipe and also write to a spreadsheet or CRM.

Use cases

Documents that drive your WordPress site

Uncanny Automator runs recipes inside WordPress. Parseur gives those recipes something real to react to. Parseur reads incoming emails and documents, extracts the fields you named, and POSTs them to an incoming webhook trigger, so a document can create a post, enrol a user, or update a record without a line of PHP.

Users and enrolments: Parseur extracts names and contact details from registration or purchase emails so a recipe can create the WordPress user or enrol them in a course.
Posts and custom fields: Parseur turns document content into named fields, so a recipe can create a post or custom post type with real values rather than a pasted blob.
Orders and memberships: Parseur reads order and payment confirmation emails, including PDF attachments, so membership and order records on your site stay in step with what actually happened.

How it works

How the Uncanny Automator integration works

Set it up once. Every new email is parsed and delivered on its own after that.

1. Create your Parseur mailbox: Sign up and get a dedicated email address where your documents land.
2. Forward your emails: Send emails manually or set up auto forwarding so every new one arrives on its own.
3. AI extracts the data: Parseur reads each email and pulls out the fields you need as structured data.
4. Data lands in Uncanny Automator: Parseur delivers the parsed data to Uncanny Automator through webhooks in real time.

Founder Piet Deprez moved to Parseur so incoming client files trigger his workflows automatically, the same webhook mechanism an Uncanny Automator recipe uses.

How to connect Parseur and Uncanny Automator?

First, we are going to use incoming Webhooks as a trigger to send data to Uncanny.

Incoming Webhook triggers

This trigger will generate a Webhook URL, which you can copy and paste into Parseur.

Note: This trigger is available only on the Uncanny's Pro plan.

You can refer to the incoming webhook trigger documentation for the steps. You can also send a JSON array with outgoing Webhooks.

Once you've added the Webhook URL into the Parseur app, Parseur will send data extracted from the document in that mailbox to Uncanny Automator.

It might look like a long process, but those steps are done only once. It will run automatically and smoothly afterward.
