The various editions of OL Connect can produce PostScript, PVL, PDF, AFP and PPML output, compatible with almost any printer. Dynamic paper handling rules allow you to fully control your printer's trays and finishing. You can also add barcodes and OMRs dynamically to control various types of inserters.
Here are some of the vendors whose devices OL Connect has succesfully interacted with:
Objectif Lune is pleased to provide the following connectors and plugins for your convenience and use! Each one is provided with an accompanying readme and\or notes to help you install and set them up. Note that none of the resources here is incorporated directly into an OL product. This means that while they were tested against their associated third party systems when initially released, they may behave differently with any later version of that system. Should you encounter any issues, please contact your local Objectif Lune Support team and we will do our best to help.
More information about the OL Connect Automate is available on this Node-RED page.
Note: this version is a technology preview that is not officially supported (yet!). For questions, comments and general information about the module, visit this user forum.
The Custom Plugin Packager (CPP, for short) allows you to create a Custom Plugin that can be used in any OL Connect Workflow process. In essence, a Custom Plugin performs exactly the same function that a Run Script Action Task can perform in a OL Connect Workflow process (including being used as a condition) but also adds the ability to create a Looping plugin. What sets the Custom Plugin apart from a standard Scripting task, however, is its ability to display an HTML interface for the user to specify settings for the task.
The CPP is a tool that allows you to assemble all the files required for the plugin into a single PPK that can then be imported into the Workflow Configuration editor, using the Import Plugin option (click the » icon) in the Plugin Toolbar.
To install, unzip the file in a local folder and launch the CPP application. Full documentation (with samples) is available by pressing F1 inside the application.
Note: The version published on January 13, 2022 (build 14617) contains a fix for looping plugins.
The Workflow Search application allows you to search for items inside a Workflow Configuration file. This is particularly useful when wanting to find out where a specific variable is used, or where a certain string of text has been entered in the configuration or comment of any task in the configuration file. Full documentation is accessible through the ? button at the top right of the main display.
To install, double-click on the executable. The application will get installed and a desktop icon will be created.
In version 1.4: search results can be exported to a JSON file; ignored tasks in a config show up in italics in the search results; available updates are signaled by a red flag on the help button; the WFTaskList.json file is no longer being overwritten after an update.
The DocuWare connectors allow for downloading from and uploading to a DocuWare ECM system, with related index information. The connectors also allow the download of index data to json/xml files. Works with Workflow version 2022.2 and later.
LEGACY:for Workflow versions 2019.2 to 2022.1, install this version of the connectors.
The M-Files package contains two plugins: the M-Files Download plugin for downloading files from an M-Files server, and the M-Files Upload plugin for uploading files to an M-Files server. Works with Workflow version 2022.2 and later.
LEGACY:for Workflow versions 2019.2 to 2022.1, install this version of the connectors.
The Mailjet task sends pre-rendered email content, created by the Render Email Content plugin, to Mailjet, an Email Service Provider (ESP), for bulk processing. This task uses the Mailjet Web API, which is faster than sending email over SMTP like the Create Email Content task does.
LEGACY:for Workflow versions 2020.1 to 2022.1, install this version of the connectors.
The SendGrid connector sends pre-rendered email content, created by the Render Email Content plugin, to SendGrid, an Email Service Provider (ESP), for bulk processing. This task uses SendGrid's v3 Web API, which is faster than sending email over SMTP like the Create Email Content task does.
LEGACY:for Workflow versions 2020.1 to 2022.1, install this version of the connectors.
The SFTP input and output plugins allow for secure downloading/uploading of files from/to SFTP and FTPS servers. The identity of the server can be verified using certificate fingerprints.
Version 1.3 of the SFTP plugins includes some minor fixes and enhancements, the details of which can be found in the release notes provided with the download. The plugins are backwards compatible to Version 2019.2 of OL Workflow inclusive.
NOTE: some users have reported issues when accessing secure FTP sites with these plugins. Objectif Lune will shortly be providing a list of common workarounds for those issues while actively working on resolving them.
This connector allows Workflow to add/retrieve documents in Therefore©, up to and including Therefore 2019. Installation instructions are included in the ZIP.
IMPORTANT NOTES: this version of the connector can only be used with Connect 2019.2 or more recent. Furthermore, this version of the connector does not support Therefore Workgroup Edition 2021.
All Samples & Templates are intended for educational and demonstration purposes and should not be deployed directly into a production environment. If the sample contains a Workflow configuration, this configuration will overwrite your existing one if you submit it.

Your device or your IT Team may not allow installing applications from outside the device's native Store. The applications listed below are therefore meant to be downloaded by your IT team so they can include them in their Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution. If your organization does not own an MDM solution, use your device's Application Store to get the app. Objectif Lune doesn't support installations outside official applications stores, therefore this is done at your own risk and should not be attempted without support from your IT Administrator.
Note to IT: the iOS version is unsigned and must therefore be signed using your Apple Developer certificate through your MDM.
