Ingest Images and Documents

To configure a task to ingest an image file or document

  1. Create a new configuration or open an existing configuration to send to Media Server with the process action. Alternatively, you can modify the Media Server configuration file (mediaserver.cfg).

  2. In the [Ingest] section, set the IngestEngine parameter to the name of a section in the configuration file that will contain the ingestion settings. For example:

    [Ingest]
    IngestEngine=SingleImageOrDocument
  3. Create a new section in the configuration file to contain the ingestion settings, and set the following parameters:

    Type The ingest engine to use. Set this parameter to image.

    For example:

    [SingleImageOrDocument]
    Type=image

    Tip: There is no configuration parameter to specify the source. You must specify the path of the source file that you want to ingest as the value of the Source parameter in the Process action, when you start processing.

  4. Save and close the configuration file. If you modified the Media Server configuration file, you must restart Media Server for your changes to take effect.
