Changes in behavior

This topic describes changes to the product behavior since the previous release.

MS Graph with Resource Owner Password Credentials

The OAuth configuration fields for MS Graph with Resource Owner Password Credentials are moved to the new Configure OAuth screen. See the MS Graph help topic.

Kofax VRS for processing original content

When Kofax VRS was enabled in Kofax Import Connector version 2.8.0.2 or older, it created a duplicate of the original input image file.

This issue is resolved in this release. A new field, Use deprecated VRS handling, is added to retain the old behavior (not recommended) for compatibility reasons.

Timeout for getting messages from the Message Connector

The fields Kofax_DocConversion_Timeout_Seconds and Kofax_No_Conversion_Timeout_Seconds timeout parameters are removed.

A new field, Timeout for getting messages from the Message Connector, is added to replace these parameters. Use the new field to specify the time from when the message is retrieved from storage, converted and transferred to the KC Plug-In.

  • If the value configured for Kofax_DocConversion_Timeout_Seconds and Kofax_No_Conversion_Timeout_Seconds was higher than 4 hours, it is recommended to update the same timeout in Timeout for getting messages from the Message Connector.

See the Additional settings tab help topic.

KfxImportFolderName message field improvement

When polling EWS mailboxes, if the Poll mail box was configured to poll messages from a folder, such as, RootFolder/SubFolder and the Poll sub folder field was not enabled, the KfxImportFolderName message field used to populate only the subfolder name, such is SubFolder.

With this release, the behavior of KfxImportFolderName message field is updated to populate the complete folder structure including the root folder name, such as RootFolder/SubFolder.

ImageMagick temporary folders

Temporary folders for ImageMagick are now created at C:\ProgramData\Kofax\KIC-ED\MC\Blobs.

These temporary files can be kept for some time after they have been used, using the Keep Blobs option in the Trace settings tab of Message Connector Configuration. Temporary files are always deleted when the Message Connector service is started.

KC Plug-In: Downgrade process

With the option of including the body with the message header functionality, the DocumentImportMessageHeader parameter in the KIC-ED-KCPlugIn.xml has changed. As a result, do the following to downgrade Kofax Import Connector 2.9.0 to an earlier version:

  1. Open KIC-ED-KCPlugIn.xml from C:\ProgramData\Kofax\KIC-ED\KCPlugIn\config.
  2. Search for the parameter DocumentImportMessageHeader.
  3. Replace the parameters of Kofax Import Connector 2.9.0 with the parameters of Kofax Import Connector 2.8.0 or earlier versions as shown in the following table.
