# How can I extract document pages or split documents in Appian?

World's #1 PDF SDK Library for Web, Mobile, Server, Desktop

Enable `enableExtractPagesToAppian` by setting it to true. First, you need to select pages you would like to extract. To do this, open the `Left Panel` with thumbnail previews of the current document. You can select one or multiple pages by clicking on a thumbnail (hold shift to select a page range) or pass a text string of the page range at the bottom of the thumbnail panel. Then click on the `Extract Selected Pages` button on the top right of the WebViewer UI. This will open a modal that will let you name your file. You can click `Save` to create a new document with extracted pages without changing the original document you are currently viewing. Alternatively, click on `Save & Remove pages` to remove the pages from the original document and save them into the newly created one.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.apryse.com/appian/get-started/faq/how-can-i-extract-document-pages-or-split-documents-in-appian.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
