Image processing apparatus, image data transmission method, program, and storage medium

摘要

An image processing apparatus that can transmit an image outputted after the execution of a workflow as well as an attribute information file including attribute information suitable for an external system as a transmission destination to the external system. An attribute information management unit manages attributes required by the external system when the image data is transmitted to the external system. A workflow execution unit executes a workflow as a sequential processing in which a plurality of functions of the image processing apparatus are combined. An attribute value setting unit sets attribute values for the attributes required by the external system when the communication unit transmits the image data to the external system. An external system interconnection unit causes the communication unit to transmit the image data output from the workflow execution unit to the external system with reference to the attribute values set by the attribute value setting unit.

主权项

1. An image processing apparatus that communicates with an external system, comprising:
an attribute information management unit configured to manage attributes required by the external system when image data is transmitted to the external system; an image data output unit configured to execute a function of the image processing apparatus to output the image data; an attribute value setting unit configured to obtain, from the external system, candidate attribute values for the attributes required by the external system, and set, from among the obtained candidate attribute values, an attribute value for the image data to be transmitted to the external system; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit, to the external system, the image data output by the image data output unit and the attribute value set by the attribute value setting unit.
