The object is available in scripts with the keyword `this`. ## Methods | **Definition** | **Description** | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | AddBatch( target: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), name: string, type: [IBatchType](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/batch-type) ): [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item) | Adds a batch. A new batch is added after the batch specified in the **target** parameter. To add the batch to the beginning of the list, set the **target** parameter to "Nothing" (VBScript: `me.AddBatch Nothing, "batch 1", me.BatchTypes.Item(0)`). If the **name** parameter is empty, the batch name is generated according to the batch settings. | | AddDocument( page: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), name: string ): [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item) | Inserts the page into a new document. If the page is already included in the document, three documents are created: one with the previous pages, one with the current page, and one with the following pages. If the **name** parameter is empty, the document name is generated according to the batch settings. | | AddPages( fileName: string, target: IWorkspaceItem, \[optional] inside: bool ): [IWorkspaceItems](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-items) | Adds pages from a file. Pages can be added after the **target** item at the same level or inside the **target** item at the beginning of the list. A target can be a batch, document or page. If the target is a batch, the **inside** parameter must be "true" (pages are added to the beginning of the batch). If the target is a page, the **inside** parameter must be "false" (pages are added after the specified page). If the target is a document, the **inside** parameter can be both "true" and "false". | | ClearSelection() | Clears the current selection | | DeleteItem( item: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item) ) | Deletes a specified item | | DetectPageEmpty( page: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), \[optional] options: [IEmptyPageDetectionOptions](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/emptypage-detectoptions) ): bool | Detects an empty page | | Exit(): bool | Finishes the station work | | FindPageBarcodes( page: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), \[optional] options: [IBarcodeFindingOptions](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/barcode-findingoptions) ): [IScriptFoundBarcodes](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/found-barcodes) | Searches for barcodes on the page | | NewBarcodeFindingOptions(): [IBarcodeFindingOptions](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/barcode-findingoptions) | Sets barcode finding options | | NewEmptyPageDetectionOptions(): [IEmptyPageDetectionOptions](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/emptypage-detectoptions) | Sets options for detecting empty pages | | NewImageSavingOptions(): [IImageSavingOptions](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/saving-options) | Sets image saving options | | NewPageRect(): [IPageRect](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/pagerect) | Defines a page rectangle | | RunScript( scriptName: string, \[optional] info: string, \[optional] skipShowError: bool ): [IScriptResult](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/script-result) | Runs the script execution | | Scan( \[optional] folder: string ) | Starts scanning with the settings of the current batch type | | Send( batch: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item) ) | Exports the batch with the settings of the current batch type | | SendByScript( batch: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), skipShowExportOptions: bool ) | Sends the batch by using a script with the settings of the current batch type. The **skipShowExportOptions** parameter specifies whether to display the Export Options dialog box before sending the batch. | | SendToFC( batch: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), \[optional] skipShowExportOptions: bool ) | Sends the batch to ABBYY FlexiCapture with the settings of the current batch type. The **skipShowExportOptions** parameter specifies whether to display the Export Options dialog box before sending the batch. | | SendToFolder( batch: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), \[optional] skipShowExportOptions: bool ) | Exports the batch to a folder with the settings of the current batch type. The **skipShowExportOptions** parameter specifies whether to display the Export Options dialog box before sending the batch. | | SendToFTP( batch: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), \[optional] skipShowExportOptions: bool ) | Exports the batch to an FTP folder with the settings of the current batch type. The **skipShowExportOptions** parameter specifies whether to display the Export Options dialog box before sending the batch. | | SetPageImage( page: [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item), fileName: string, \[optional] filePageIndex: int ) | Changes the image of the page | | Wait( millisecond: int ) | Suspends the script execution for the specified time (in milliseconds) | ## Properties | **Name** | **Type** | **Access** | **Description** | | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ActiveBatch | [IWorkspaceItem](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-item) | Read/write | The active batch. For some event scripts (for example, **On batch sending** and **On batch sent**), returns null. | | Batches | [IWorkspaceItems](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-items) | Read-only | Batches | | BatchTypes | [IBatchTypes](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/batch-types) | Read-only | Batch types | | CurrentBatchType | [IBatchType](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/batch-type) | Read/write | The current batch type | | Result | [IScriptResult](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/script-result) | Read-only | The result of the script execution | | ScriptEnvInfo | string | Read-only | Environmental information about conditions on which the script is triggered. For scripts triggered automatically before or after export, its value is ` `, where `exportType` can be "Folder", "FTP", "FC", "RS" or "Script" and `taskID` is the export task identifier. For scripts triggered automatically before or after page transformation, the property takes one of the following values: `Rotate `, `FlipHorizontal`, `FlipVertical`, `Invert`, `ConvertToBW`, `Deskew`, `Despeckle`, `Erase `, `Crop `, `SplitHorizontal `, `SplitVertical `, `ChangeResolution `, `Scale `, `FreeScale , , `. | | ScriptItems | [IWorkspaceItems](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-items) | Read-only | Items for which the script is called. The returned value is different for different events. For the events **On station started** and **On station closing**, the returned value is empty. For the event **On scan completed**, the returned value is a list of pages added during the scanning session. For other events, the returned value is a batch, a document or a page depending on the event. When the script is launched by an explicit user command, a collection of currently selected items is returned. | | ScriptProperties | [IScriptProperties](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/script-properties) | Read-only | Script properties | | Selection | [IWorkspaceItems](/flexi-capture/scanning-station/shared/scripts/workspace-items) | Read-only | The current selection.
