Find a Related Node

Use this type of advanced rule when there are multiple values on a document that could be the field value. By applying this rule, you ensure that the value you want is extracted.

Tip If you want to provide a default value in case no value is found with this rule, use the "Find a related node (dv)" rule instead. This enables you to provide a default value.
