#3 — 3rd Party Apps with direct ChromaChecker Compatibility

3rd party solutions that support direct uploading using the ChromaChecker API, or FTP Export

ChromaChecker Ready applications (Third-Party) are integrated directly using the ChromaChecker API. In the application, the user authenticates using SOAP credentials which establishes a connection to the server. The data transfer occurs in the background with automation using the ChromaChecker Application Programming Interface (API). 

NOTE: Vendors update their software routinely, and the steps outlined here may be superseded by the latest version. Please forward screenshots and tips to support@chromachecker.com to improve the documentation and help new users connect their printing devices to the ChromaChecker cloud.

   

 

 

 

#4 — Manually

ChromaChecker supports industry-standard formats that can easily be uploaded by navigating to the file and clicking on Upload.

Manual mode

A fantastic way to get started. Drag and drop technology allows for fast and easy uploading of data to the desired track. Up to 20 files can be transmitted in a single operation.  Simply click the blue cloud icon and select the files to upload. This is a good first step to ensure the files are compatible prior to automation. You can also load historic data for analysis.
