Configuring Scanner in Xtender

Issue/Question

How do I configure the scanner in the new Xtender

Environment

• OpenText Xtender
• Captiva Cloud Runtime
• Chrome
• Microsoft Edge
• Banner

Cause

Xtender upgrade on 10/2/2021

Xtender now requires Captiva Cloud Runtime to be installed on your computer for scanning.

Your scanner needs to be selected again to scan directly to Xtender

Resolution

Install Captiva Cloud Runtime before configuring your scanner

1. Open Software Center
   1. Click 
   2. Type Software Center
   3. Click Software Center
2. Click Captiva Cloud Runtime 3.0
3. Click Install
4. Wait for install to complete
5. To verify the installation is successful, open https://127.0.0.1:49735/scanservice/v2/getstatus in Chrome or Edge
   1. Successful installation will show StatusMessage: Success as shown here:   {"SessionID":null,"Status":0,"StatusMessage":"Success","Version":"3.0.0.1320","StatusCode":3,"TokenID":null}
6. Restart your computer
7. IF this is a multiuser computer, you will need to add the user(s) that need to scan to the Local Computer group "Captiva Cloud Toolkit Users" in Computer Management - the Group should have been created by the plugin install - if not, it must be manually created

Configure your scanner
