Easy Scan Destinations

On the Destinations tab of the Easy Scan action node properties, you can define where the scanned file is sent.

To add a new destination, click +Add, multiple destinations can be added to one Easy Scan action. The Destination panel opens where you can set a target destination. Some destinations are available by default, others become available after certain connections are established in Network > Connections. The available destinations are:

  • Cloud storage

  • eGoldFax

  • Email

  • Fax Server

  • Folder

  • FTP

  • RightFax

  • Secured link

  • User’s email

  • User’s storage

  • Scan Review

Depending on the selected destination type, the panel contains the General, Parameters and Advanced sections.

General Section

  • Title: Enter a title for the destination which will help distinguish it from other options.

  • Attach metadata file: When selected, MyQ sends the scanned file with an XML file attachment, containing the scanned file's metadata.

  • Filename template: Choose how the scanned file is named from the options:

    • Default: A combination of parameters set on the Actions General tab, when Default is selected, you can also enable Allow to edit the filename, which means users can edit filenames on the terminal.

    • Custom: Choose a new combination of parameters specific for files scanned to this destination.

Parameters Section

This section depends on the selected destination type. The available fields differ for each type. Some types share parameters, and some use unique parameters. Custom parameters can also be created, in the Parameters tab.

When setting up a cloud storage destination there is an additional option to allow users to Browse folders. If the type of cloud storage selected is External storage API, you can also enable or disable the option to Delete files.
