The ABBYY FlexiCapture single-task integration solution for Blue Prism can typically be used in the following three scenarios. 1. FlexiCapture as an unattended service: files are sent synchronously from Blue Prism to ABBYY FlexiCapture 12; no verification is required The FlexiCapture 12 VBO component, which runs on the Blue Prism side, sends a file to ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 and gets back extracted fields and exported files. In this scenario, files received by ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 do not require verification, so once the recognition is completed, they go directly to the export stage.
The ABBYY FlexiCapture operator must have the role of Scanning Operator or Administrator for the given project and batch type. These roles are granted by the administrator in the Administration and Monitoring Console.

2. FlexiCapture as input: files and data are sent synchronously from ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 to Blue Prism The FlexiCapture Export Connector is used at the export stage in ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 according to a script export profile. The connector sends files and extracted fields to the FlexiCapture 12 Listener web service. ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 may receive image files from the Scanning Station or FlexiCapture Mobile Client, for example.

3. FlexiCapture as an attended service: files are sent asynchronously from Blue Prism to ABBYY FlexiCapture 12; verification is required The FlexiCapture 12 VBO, which runs on the Blue Prism side, sends a file to ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 and gets back a URL linking to a document verification page on the Web Verification Station. The user clicks the link and verifies the document. Once the verification is completed, a script export profile is applied on the ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 side, which makes the FlexiCapture Export Connector send the files and extracted field data to the FlexiCapture 12 Listener web service.
The ABBYY FlexiCapture operator must either have the roles of Scanning Operator (to send documents) and Verification Operator (to receive a URL linking to the document verification page on the Web Verification Station) for the given project and batch type, or the role of Administrator.

Before sending image files from Blue Prism to ABBYY FlexiCapture using the ABBYY FlexiCapture 12 VBO, you must separate the documents into files (one file per document).
