Integration

It’s not uncommon to want to integrate scanservjs with other software - you may wish to upload scans to Dropbox, paperless-ng or some other location. The possibilities are endless but deep integration into the UI would add cruft for the vast majority of users.

Thankfully, the files just end up in a location on your filesystem so you are free to integrate however you want.

There are two recommended approaches:

• Create a script or program which scans the output directory for files and then does something with them.
• Create an action

Dropbox

You could integrate with Dropbox using Dropbox-Uploader

Use your scanner’s hardware ‘Scan’ button to initiate a new scan via scanservjs. Requires a scanner that exposes buttons as sensors and curl.
