FILE

• File not modified since: The Import Connector waits for the specified number of seconds after the file was last accessed before importing the file. (Default: 60 Seconds)

• Use trigger: Enables trigger file processing. A trigger file signals the import connector that the files or subfolders are ready for import.

The import connector waits for the specified number of seconds after the file was last accessed before importing the file. (Default: 60 Seconds)

Select a trigger mode, the available options are:

• Files in the same directory with the same base name (default): The trigger file imports all files in the directory with the same base name (except the trigger file itself). For example, a trigger file called Name.trg would import all files named Name regardless of the file extension in the watched folder.

• All files in the same directory: The trigger file imports all files in the directory (except the trigger file itself) with a given file extension. For example, Testfile.jpg.trg imports all JPG files in the directory. The system creates locked TRG files if this type of naming convention is used with any other trigger type.

• All files in the subfolder with the same base name: Imports all files in a subfolder with the same base name as the trigger file.

  The trigger file must have an extension if you want to use this option. You can have any amount of subfolders within your watched folder. To use a subfolder, drop a trigger file into the watched folder with the name of the subfolder. All files of accepted file type will be processed in the subfolder. For example, to process files in the subfolder Folder A, you must have a file called Folder A.trg in your Watched folder.

  

By default, the empty subfolders are deleted after importing the files. To retain the empty folders after importing the files, clear this check box.

Provide the path to the watched folder to import files.

To avoid security vulnerabilities, access to the local watch folder is denied by default. To know how to enable access, see Folder input base directory in Security options tab in Kofax Message Connector Help.

Select to import files from the subfolders of the Watched folder. The System ignores the files in the root of the Watched folder.

Specify the nested level of subfolders to scan for importing the files. (Default: 1, Maximum: 30)

Select to include the watched folder for polling.

Select to create one document for each subfolder wherein each document is added as a page in the folder.

Enter a comma-separated list of files to import from the folder. Use the asterisk as a wildcard to replace any number of characters. The question mark replaces a single character.

Enter a comma-separated list of trigger files to import. Use the asterisk as a wildcard to replace any number of characters. For example, *.trg. The question mark replaces a single character.

The system only considers the existence of the file but ignores its content, that is the input file has the trigger file name but without the configured extension. For example, if the extension is TRG then trigger file file001.tif.trg is used to import the file file001.tif to the document repository.

Select either of the following trigger options:

• Delete (default): Deletes the trigger file after import.

• Rename extension: Enter the new extension (string value) for trigger files that are already processed.

Select to import the trigger file when other files are imported. (Default is Clear. This means the content of the trigger file is not relevant and the file is deleted/renamed after the other documents are imported.)

Credential of the user whose has full control permission on the watched folder. By default, the local system user credentials are used by the Message Connector service. Select one of the following for authentication:

• Local (Default): Enter the User name and Password.

• External: Enter the secret name for the username and password stored in the configured external storage in the User name secret and Password secret fields respectively.

To avoid timeout for messages with longer processing time, increase the timeout value. The maximum allowed value is 86400 seconds (24 hours.)

• Attachments

• Attachments first and body

• Body first and attachments (Default)

• None

• Only body

• Exclude message header (Default)

• Include message header of email

• Include message header of email and embedded email(s): Additionally, select the Body option for the Handle body of nested emails as a field in the Document conversion tab of Message Connector Configuration.

Allows you to set conditions to skip specific files for import. For example, to skip the import of .png files that are less than 10 bytes, do the following:

1. Click .
2. In the File extension text box, enter the file extension as .png.
3. Select an Operator as Less than. (Available options are: Less than and Greater than).
4. Specify the Size in bytes as 10. Use the increment  or decrement  buttons to specify the file size.
5. Click Add.

Only the .png files that are less than 10 bytes are skipped. Files greater than or equal to 10 bytes are imported.

To edit the skip import details: Select the record to edit, click , make the required changes, and then click Ok.

To delete the skip import details: Select the record to delete, click , and then click Yes.

Allows you to set a specific file extension for import. For example, to import .png files, do the following:

1. Click .
2. In the File extension text box, enter the file extension as .png.
3. Click Add.

To edit the allowed import details: Select the record to edit, click , make the required changes, and then click Ok.

The available file types are:

Normalizes non-PDF eDocuments (MS Office documents) to PDF/A. (Default: Clear)

Configure the following.

Converts the PDF documents to the ISO-standardized PDF/A format, specialized for the digital preservation of electronic documents. (Default: Clear). Configure the following.

Allows conversion of XFA forms to PDF documents. (Default: Clear)

Ensure the following:

• Install the Adobe Experience Manager output service and ensure that the web service interface is available.
• Configure the Adobe Experience Manager credentials in the Kofax Message Connector configuration.

Import the unprocessed document if there is any exception during the normalization process of a document. (Default: Clear).

A document with error information is generated and the original document is appended to this document.

Name of the Scan/VRS profile.

To extract the text from PDF, select one of the following options:

• All text (Default): Extracts both visible and invisible text.
• Automatic: Extracts only visible text. If the results are empty, then extracts by including invisible text in the results.
• Ignore all text layer: Extracts PDF through OCR. The PDF text layer is ignored.
• Visible text only: Extracts only visible texts.

The characters required as word separators. Default characters are: "/", ":", "(", ")", "-" and "#".

When processing the PDF text, strings of text containing these characters are treated as separate words. For example, "1234/56" is treated as three separate words, "1234", "/", and "56".

Save page PDF data

If selected, saves the metadata which could be used later to render or add back the metadata. (Default: Clear)

Clear this option to map the XML file fields to TotalAgility fields.

Select one of the following XML import mode options:

• Do not map XML fields to TotalAgility fields: The XML file fields are not mapped to the TotalAgility fields.

• Map XML fields to TotalAgility fields and reject on mismatch:

  TotalAgility imports the XML file and maps the TotalAgility fields to XML file fields. If there is any difference in the fields specified in the XML file, TotalAgility rejects the XML file.

• Map XML fields to TotalAgility fields and allow fields mismatch:

  TotalAgility imports the XML file and maps the TotalAgility fields to XML file fields. If there is any difference in the fields specified in the XML file, TotalAgility will still import the file and display the errors in the Message Connector.

• Document: Imports a Kofax XML containing reference to a multi-page TIFF file.

• Page (default): Imports Kofax XML containing reference to a single page TIFF file.
