    Hi Stefan ,We  have an application which users captures the images and will store in appian folders, We want this images need to move to another synapse database with meta data, We cant use webapi to send documents as we have lot of documents almost near to 100, so i am planning to push to synapse on each instance in process model when user submit the form instead daily load with api

    Thanks a lot for the explanation. You say "We cant use webapi to send documents as we have lot of documents". Why is that?

    IMHO it is a very questionable design to store binary data in a DB.
