Anonymous

  • Hi,

    for this connected system I am not able to get the output from Process text. Request is getting queued but when I am checking the status of the task to get the result (basically the url), it's showing internal error  and status is 'Processing Failed'.

    I am not getting proper output for Bar code (Process bar code operation) as well.
