Info
This connector doesn’t produce any output directly. The selected Output Profile is used to generate a temporary file which is available to the script via the PROCESSFILENAME variables.
If the target script doesn’t need any document generated select an Output Profile of Original or TIFF in order to save processing time to create a not used output document.
Warning
Running piece of scripts may be harmful and dangerous. Make sure to know what the script is exactly doing and to run external delivered script only if is source is trusted and the script is secure.

Type
Select the type of script to execute according what provided in the Filename or the Code. Available types are:
- Visual Basic Script
- Java Script
Info
Scripts are executed server side inside services context, make sure to do not use client side objects which might not work or hang services.
Info
Visual basic Script is executed at 32bits while Java Script is executed natively at 64bits. Java Script is strongly suggested as preferred scripting type.
Arguments
By using arguments you can send additional parameters to a script. This might come in handy if you create one script which you want to use in different templates, in this case you could send the workflow name as a parameter, which can be used in the script to perform differently depending on the workflow which invoked the script.
For example, you can enter /Workflow=CheckForms here, and retrieve the value in the VB Script by using my_var=Arguments.Values(“Workflow”)
Filename
Browse to or enter the script filename, or click on the Variables button on the right, to select a variable which will contain the script filename.
Info
Browse allows to upload the script to the server, this operation stores the script file in the local Scanshare data folder.
Warning
For security and privacy reasons the filename is always referring to the Scanshare data folder and not to a full absolute path. Do not insert absolute paths which will generate instead an error.
Code
In this field you can manually write a script which will be stored inside the connector settings or use variables to use dynamic script code / variables.
Refer to the Appendix – Scripting section for more information about Scripting in general inside Scanshare.
