This option provides the least amount of security, as users are not required to enter any credentials before scanning and uploading documents to OnBase.

To configure a default user account for the Integration for HP Connect:

  1. From the server hosting the OnBase-HP web server, browse to the folder containing the OnBase-HP web server's installation files (typically, C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ HP OnBase Connect).
  2. Open the OnBase-HP web server's Web.config file in a text editor, such as Notepad.
  3. Navigate to the <Hyland.HPConnect.Authentication> section and make the following changes:
    1. Set the LogonType setting to Automatic. For example:
      <Hyland.HPConnect.Authentication LogonType="Automatic"/>
    2. Set the AuthenticationType setting to Standard. For example:
      <Hyland.HPConnect.Authentication AuthenticationType= "Standard"/>
    3. Specify the OnBase user name and password for the default user account in the UserName and Password settings. For example:
      <Hyland.HPConnect.Authentication UserName="GUEST"/>
      <Hyland.HPConnect.Authentication Password="PASSWORD"/>
  4. Save and close the Web.config file. The change is reflected on the HP device the next time the Integration for HP Connect is closed and relaunched.
