  2. Click New Component and select LexisNexis from the component list:
  3. Name your new LexisNexis component and click Add
  4. Click Apply to save your changes.
  5. Ensure your new LexisNexis component is placed in the list of existing pipeline stages.

How to Configure the LexisNexis Web Service

To configure your LexisNexis component, select it from the components list and complete the following fields in the Configuration section:

  1. Service Url: Specify the Web URL of the LexisNexis web service. For example, http://localhost:8088/ecsk/analyze.
  2. Analyze Document:
  3. Generate Preview: When this is enabled, you will be able to generate document previews.
  4. Document id Property: Enter a property which represents the Document Identifier, if available.
  5. Use Raw Data:
    1. Checked: Raw Documentum binary will be submitted
    2. Unchecked: The body property will be submitted. You can use the Tika Extractor component to generate the body property.
  6. File Share: Enter the file share address if you are using raw data to create a file share which is reachable by the AutoClassifier App Pool account and the Lexis Nexis server.

Note

If you are not generating a preview, avoid using raw data. If you are generating a preview, either raw data or the Body property can be submitted. The Body property is more efficient when processing but some formatting will be lost in the generated preview
