This topic describes the features and enhancements introduced in Kofax Import Connector 2.10.0.

Message Connector enhancement

Message Connector supports message polling directly without storing files in Message Connector storage.

  • A Direct mode is added which retrieves documents from various sources and directly imports them to TotalAgility.

  • The existing Message Connector functionality (store and forward) is now called Storage mode.

This enhancement is only for the Kofax TotalAgility users. See Message Connector Monitor for more information.

Configuration enhancements

The following fields are added to the General tab of Message Connector Configuration:

Storage mode: This option enables Message Connector to operate in storage mode. By default, this is enabled.

Direct mode: This option enables Message Connector to operate in direct mode. By default, this is enabled.

Monitor enhancements

The left-hand menu of the Message Connector Monitor user interface consists of three sections:

  • General: Contains options which are available to both storage and direct mode.

  • Direct mode: Lets you view the passive inputs status in direct mode.

  • Storage mode: Includes all the options specific to storage mode.

Retry delay for importing documents

You can configure Message Connector to wait for a specific duration before importing a message again after it fails with an unexpected import error.

KFXConverter improvements

The following parameters are added to the KFXConverter settings in the KC Plug-In Destination configuration:

  • FallBackToPDF: If the value of this parameter is set to True, the output format for any unsuccessful PDF/A normalization/conversion is set to PDF. This parameter is added under ANY2PDF. Default: False

  • ConvertSheets: KFXConverter converts the pages according to the values specified in the CoverSheets field. Possible values are All, Active, 1, 2, 3 and so forth. Specify the values as comma-separated values. This parameter is added under EXCEL2PDF.

Event log for locked account

Polling a mailbox/folder from an older or invalid password can result in a locked account. In such scenario, an event log entry is added to Windows Events. See Troubleshooting for more information.

Ability to monitor passive input

Use the GetPassiveInputState function in conjunction with Kofax Monitor to get the current state of all passive input. See GetPassiveInputState function for more information.

KfxMessageRemovedAttachmentList message field

Use the KfxMessageRemovedAttachmentList message field to get the list of all file names that are excluded from import. The file names are delimited using a semicolon. You can use this field in the subject or body of a notification email. See Configure Message fields for more information.

Get file creation and modification dates

In the IDocumentScript2 interface, use the CreationDate and ModificationDate properties to get the file creation and modification dates of the files or attachments imported via email or folder.

Enable secure connection

In KC Plug-In Connection configuration, when you specify the Message Connector URL in the https://address:port format, select the Verify Message Connector TLS certificate option to enable a secure connection.

Make sure that you also select the SSL/TLS active option in the HTTP tab of Message Connector Configuration.

Conversion of JPE files

Kofax Import Connector supports the conversion of JPE format files.

Documentation improvements

The Installation Guide and Developer's Guide are converted from PDF to HTML format.
