Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Parseur integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Parseur calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Parseur data, across all 26 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Parseur access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.
  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Parseur, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Parseur is unclear instead of plowing ahead.
  4. Enterprise grade security

    • Fine grained access so you control which agents and people can reach Parseur.
    • Least privilege by default, read scopes first and only the writes a workflow needs.
    • A full audit trail of every Parseur action to support review and sign off.

Frequently asked questions

Ceven implements an intelligent queuing system to respect Parseur API limits. If a workflow attempts to list thousands of documents across multiple mailboxes and hits a rate limit, the agent automatically enters a backoff period. It pauses requests for a few seconds and then resumes from the last successful cursor position. This ensures that large scale data migrations or audits do not result in failed workflows or account suspensions. You will see a status indicator in the activity log showing that the agent is throttling requests to stay within your specific Parseur plan limits, ensuring stable delivery of extracted data.
Currently, Ceven can manage the delivery and retrieval of data but cannot design the internal regex or AI rules for a template. You must define the fields and extraction logic within the Parseur dashboard first. Once the template is active, Ceven can list those templates, retrieve the data they produce, and manage the webhooks that send that data to other apps. This separation ensures that your data extraction logic remains governed by your specific business rules while the agent handles the movement and orchestration of the resulting structured data across your software stack.
Ceven can monitor the health of your Parseur webhooks by periodically retrieving webhook status and logs. If you set up a monitoring workflow, the agent can detect if a webhook is paused or failing and attempt to re enable it using the enable webhook action. For critical data paths, we recommend using a Ceven webhook listener as the target. This allows the agent to log the raw payload immediately and retry the downstream push to your CRM or database if the final destination is offline, providing a layer of redundancy that Parseur does not provide natively.
Yes, Ceven works with all Parseur mailbox types including email forwarders and direct API uploads. Whether you are sending PDFs via a dedicated Parseur email address or pushing files through the API, the agent interacts with the resulting documents in the same way. It uses the mailbox id to list, search, and retrieve documents regardless of how they entered the system. This means you can mix your ingestion methods and still use a single Ceven workflow to standardize the output and push it into your internal systems for processing.
Yes, you can build a maintenance workflow that uses the list documents action to identify records older than a specific date. While the Parseur API has specific rules about document deletion and archiving, the agent can iterate through your mailboxes and trigger the necessary cleanup actions. This is particularly useful for companies with high volume ingestion that want to keep their Parseur storage within certain limits or comply with data retention policies by ensuring that sensitive parsed data is not stored in the Parseur cloud longer than necessary.
The integration works across all tiers, but certain capabilities depend on your Parseur plan. For example, some high volume API features or advanced webhook settings are gated by Parseur. If the agent attempts to call an endpoint that your plan does not support, Parseur returns a specific error code. Ceven captures this error and notifies you that the action requires a plan upgrade. This prevents the agent from looping on a request that will never succeed and tells you exactly which Parseur feature is missing from your current subscription level.
Absolutely. This is a primary use case for the agent. Because Ceven can list templates for a mailbox, it can identify which template was used to parse a specific document. You can build a conditional workflow where documents parsed with the Invoice template go to QuickBooks, while documents parsed with the Lead template go to Salesforce. The agent reads the template metadata and executes the corresponding action, effectively turning Parseur into a smart router for all your incoming unstructured business documents.
Ceven can assist by pulling the raw document content and the current parsed output for a specific record. By using the list documents action, the agent can show you exactly what Parseur extracted versus what was in the original file. While the agent cannot rewrite the template rules for you, it can identify patterns in the failures, such as a consistent shift in a PDF layout, and alert you that the template needs manual adjustment in the Parseur dashboard to maintain data accuracy.
