Note: This section details integrating Epic scanning with a single OnBase system using SMART on FHIR. If you are integrating Epic with multiple OnBase systems, follow the instructions in Scanning Integrations instead. For more information, see Integrating Epic with Multiple Systems.

You can configure the Scan Acquisition Server (SAS) or Front Office Scanning (FOS) integration to connect to the OnBase system for import. To integrate Epic scanning with OnBase using SMART on FHIR, configure an exact parameter for the environmentID element in the command line interface. To successfully launch the SAS or FOS client, you must configure the EpicIntegrations.config file to include exactly one matching value for each environmentID element provided on the command line. If this element is not provided on the command line, you must also remove it from the EpicIntegrations.config file.

To configure a SAS or FOS client launch:

  1. Open the EpicIntegrations.config file that resides in the same directory as the scanning DLLs for SAS or FOS.
  2. Locate the <servers> element under <OBEpicViewer>.
  3. Under <servers>, add or modify a <server> element to include the following child elements:

    Element

    Description

    environmentID

    The environmentID is a value provided by Epic for the environment ID you want to map.

    url

    The url is the Application Server URL to connect to for the specified location.

    datasource

    The datasource is the name of the connection string to use on the specified Application Server.
    Note: The <server> element may additionally include a <location> child element. The COM integration uses this element to determine which OnBase system to connect to and upload documents to. For SMART on FHIR launches of SAS or FOS, do not include a location parameter in the command line.
  4. Save EpicIntegrations.config.
