Exporting Scans to External Databases

Automating Export of Scan Records

Learn how to automate the process of exporting scan records to third-party databases and applications using CodeREADr. This guide covers scheduling tasks, using templates, integrating with webhooks, and more.

Effortlessly export scan data with automated scheduling, no-code integrations, and templates to streamline your workflow.

Schedule Exports Using Tasks

You can automate scan exports to various destinations by creating scheduled tasks. Supported export options include:

  • Cloud Storage: Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, S3, SFTP, and Microsoft Azure (coming soon).
  • Email: Send scan records directly to recipients.
  • CSV Download Links: Easily share scan data.
  • FTP Servers: Upload scan data securely.

Export Scan Records to CSV Web Links

Export and share filtered scan records via CSV Web Links. Scan records are automatically transferred from CodeREADr servers to third-party spreadsheets, tables, and dashboards supporting public CSV Web Links.

CSV Web Links can be public or private. The difference between public and private links is that the private link requires a username and password to access the data table. The table will be presented in the browser after entering authorized credentials. It can then be downloaded.

Private links are ideal for sharing tables with specific people or groups. A different link can be issued based on select filters for services, users, timestamps, etc. For example, trade show organizers or their technology providers can issue credentials to each exhibitor and restrict the scans for that user to only their scans.

Create Export Templates

Use export templates to define the structure and format of your exported scan data. Customize:

  • Column order and headers.
  • Time/date formatting (e.g., combined or separate columns).
  • Filter records based on specific criteria.

No-Code Webhooks for Cloud Integration

With webhooks, connect scan data to 4,000+ cloud apps using platforms like:
