Exporting data from ABBYY FlexiCapture to Blue Prism through a web service requires a script export profile in the Document Definition.
Add the connector assemblies to the Document Definition before you create the export profile. For more information, see Add the Blue Prism connector assemblies to a Document Definition.

Create the export profile

1

Open the project

On the Project Setup Station, open your ABBYY FlexiCapture project.

Open the Document Definition

  1. Click Project → Document Definitions to open the list of Document Definitions available for the project.
  2. Select the Document Definition you want to specify new export settings for.
  3. Click Edit.
3

Start the export profile wizard

  1. Click Document Definition → Export Settings.
  2. Click Add.

Select the destination type

On the Select the Type of Destination step:
  1. Select Custom export (script) from the Type drop-down list.
  2. Select Errors are irrelevant in the Document condition field.
Leave the other settings unchanged, or modify them as described in Export settings.

Add the export script

On the Script Export step:
  1. Click Edit Script.

Name the export profile

On the Select the Destination Name step, specify a name for your export profile, and then click Finish.

Enable the export profile

The new export profile appears in the list of available export profiles in the export settings dialog box. To make ABBYY FlexiCapture use it at the Export stage, select the box next to the profile in the Enabled column.
8

Publish the Document Definition

Click OK, save and close the Document Definition editor, and then click Publish.
If documents are being processed within the project when you add the new export profile, update them to the latest version by pressing Alt+Shift+U or by selecting Update to Latest Version from their shortcut menu.

Sample scripts

Both sample scripts are in the connector files.

What happens after export

After processing completes, the document and its metadata go from the export stage to Blue Prism through the ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 Listener web service. The export is logged in the Task Log on the Processing Server, and the event logs are also available on the Processing Monitor tab of the Administration and Monitoring Console. When the export completes successfully, the Listener web service saves the export results on the Blue Prism server in the file format you specified.
