Data Extract for all files

[dataops]

Hi all,

I am trying to extract specific data from all different files types eg from; word, excel, pdf etc.

I am trying to extract file Details

Origin: Authors, Last saved by, Content created, Date last saved.

File: Date created, Date modified, Date accessed, Shared with, Computer.

I have been searching in forums but was unable to find anything under: "Origin" or "Last saved by" etc.

Thank you,

[Phil Harvey]

Try running ExifTool on the files to see what it shows you.

There is no standardization in metadata across various file types.  The tags in a video file has different names than the tags in a image file, which are different from an audio/document/pdf/etc file.

As Phil says, run exiftool on each file type and look at the results. The command in FAQ #3 is recommended because it will show you all tags including tags with duplicate names.  From there, you will have to reconcile any difference in the tag names in your workflow.
