A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and apparatus for incorporating additional content in a document at a time of processing are disclosed. For example, the method initiates a request to process a document, receives an option to include one or more additional content to the document, selects at least one additional content to add to the printed document from the endpoint device at the time of processing, defines at least one access control of the at least one additional content and sends the request to process the document, wherein the at least one additional content is incorporated into the document that is processed and the at least one additional content has the at least one access control. |

1. A method for incorporating additional content in a document at a time of printing, comprising:
initiating, by a processor of an endpoint device, a request to print the document by reading a near field communication (NFC) tag on a multi-function device (MFD), wherein the initiating causes a unique identifier to be assigned to the document; receiving, by the processor, an option to include one or more additional content to the document at a time the request is made on the endpoint device; selecting, by the processor, at least one digital content from the endpoint device to add to the document, wherein the selecting is based on a sensor reading of the endpoint device, wherein the selecting causes the unique identifier to be assigned to the at least one digital content such that the at least one digital content is linked to the document; defining, by the processor, at least one access control of the at least one digital content; sending, by the processor, the request to print the document, wherein the at least one digital content is incorporated into the document that is printed as a mark that directs a reading endpoint device to an external link to view the at least one digital content and the at least one digital content has the at least one access control; initiating, by the processor, a second request to print the document; receiving, by the processor, the option to include a second one or more additional content to the document; selecting, by the processor, at least one second additional content to add to the document, wherein the at least one second additional content is assigned the unique identifier also assigned to the at least one additional content to form a thread including the at least one additional content and the at least one second additional content; sending, by the processor, the second request to print the document; and receiving, by the processor, a filtered selection of a subset of additional content within the thread for processing. |
