The fastest way to get started. Open the Upload page, drop one or more files, and DocuElevate takes care of the rest. Supported formats include PDF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, DOCX, XLSX, and more.
Forward documents to a dedicated mailbox. Under Email Ingestion, add one or more IMAP accounts. DocuElevate polls for new messages and processes attachments automatically.
Integrate programmatically by POST-ing files to /api/upload.
Ideal for scripts, watched folders, scanners, or third-party tools like Zapier and n8n.
Point network scanners (HP, Fujitsu ScanSnap, Brother) at DocuElevate's upload endpoint or use any mobile scanning app that supports custom HTTP destinations.

Service account or OAuth. Supports shared drives.

Secure file transfer to any server.

POST metadata to any external endpoint.
A Pipeline is a series of processing steps that run automatically whenever a document is ingested. Each step can transform, enrich, or route the document.
Upload a file from any terminal:
curl -X POST https://your-instance/api/upload \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
-F "file=@/path/to/document.pdf"
Use inotifywait (Linux), fswatch (macOS), or any file-watcher script to
POST new files as soon as they appear in a local directory.
Configure your HP, Fujitsu ScanSnap, or Brother scanner to use DocuElevate's upload URL as a Scan-to-Network destination. Scans are processed the moment they arrive.
Apps like Adobe Scan, Microsoft Lens, or Genius Scan
can export to a custom HTTP endpoint. Point them at /api/upload.
Connect DocuElevate to thousands of other apps via integration platforms.
Use the HTTP/Webhook module to POST files to the upload API.
