Digital Scanner

 

Digital Scanner
 

The digital scanner lets visitors share documents during a live video call, such as an ID card, an insurance card, a form or a letter. It needs no scanner or other hardware: the visitor uses their own phone. The digital scanner is available only on the Enterprise plan.

  1. During a live video call, click the Scanner icon in the toolbar below the video.

  1. The visitor scans the QR code with their phone’s camera. A secure Upload Document page opens in their phone’s browser. The visitor does not need to install an app, and any internet connection works: the phone does not need to be on the same network as the station.
  2. The visitor chooses Take Photo to capture the document with the phone’s camera, or Select File to choose an image or a PDF from the phone’s gallery or files.
