  <Tab title="Appian 11">
    The ABBYY FlexiCapture Connector for Appian includes the following components:

    * DmsConnector.dll, a library of classes used to convert data from an abstract DMS into ABBYY FlexiCapture data.
    * AfcDmsConnector.dll, a library accessed by the ABBYY FlexiCapture export script. This library accepts ABBYY FlexiCapture objects as input, converts them, and passes them on to the WCF Service.
    * AppianConnector.dll, a connector for Appian. This library provides a simplified programming interface to interact with the Appian server.
    * Newtonsoft.Json.dll, a support library. This library provides functionality to work with JSON strings. It is used by AppianConnector.dll.
    * ABBYYFlexiCapturePlugin.jar, a plug-in that allows you to load files into Appian folders.
    * DmsConnectorHost.exe, a Windows service named "ABBYY FlexiCapture Connector for Dms" that acts as a proxy between the script on the ABBYY FlexiCapture side and the DMS server. This service launches a WCF service that provides methods for sending data to the DMS server.

    The libraries listed above run on the ABBYY FlexiCapture side. The ABBYY FlexiCapture Connector for Appian also includes a **ABBYYFlexiCapturePlugin.jar** plug-in, which is installed on the Appian side and allows you to load files into Appian folders.
