Papra's date: filter matches the document date, so a row now shows that
date or none, and an undated document falls out of a date range in the
list as it does on the server. Import still files an undated document
under the day it was added.
Papra organization ids are checked against org_ plus 24 characters
before anything is sent. A 403 user.not_in_organization and a 400
server.invalid_request.params read as no such organization instead of a
refused key; the error body is read for its code and never passed on.
The connection test also reads the tags, so a key without tags:read
fails at save (permissionMissing) instead of on the first filter. Name
searches quote each word, so a leading dash is not a negation, and the
date range goes to Papra as date:>= / date:<= with the per-row check
kept as a net.
- Source keys carry the normalised origin of the Paperless-ngx or Papra
they came from (source_instance on the document, the alias and the
purge ledger; unique NULLS NOT DISTINCT). A key stored without one
(v1.39.2 imports) matches any instance of its system, and a lookup
without one matches any stored instance. The upload route, the lookup
route and the import script accept or send it; backups carry it.
- Saving a connection reuses the stored token only for the same origin;
a new origin needs the token again (422 tokenRequired).
- Document ids are checked against what each system issues (Paperless
digits, Papra [A-Za-z0-9_-], never . or ..) before any URL is built;
the Papra organization id likewise.
- Paperless API 9 filters dates on created__gte / created__lte, in the
picker and the script. A search page the local re-check empties reads
on, up to five source pages. Tags are read past the first 250.
- The import's key pre-check uses the lookup allowance, a failed fetch
no longer charges the upload allowance, and one import per key runs at
a time under an advisory lock, so a double click downloads once.
- Reading and deleting one's own connection works with the documents
module off and the operator list unset.
The ingest path takes the capability from its caller, so the upload and
the import route each read getAiCapability("documentAi") in their own
source, where the AI route inventory classifies them.
A person stores one connection per system (base address, Papra
organization id, API token encrypted at rest) and can search it by
document name with tag and date filters, then import picked documents
one per request through the same ingest path as an upload: source-key
answer before any download, content dedup, deleted stays deleted, quota,
provenance, and the person's own AI reading setting. An import can link
the document to the visit, condition or vaccination it was picked for.
The operator lists the instances in DOCUMENT_SOURCE_ORIGINS; unset, the
feature is off. Only listed origins are contacted, through safeFetch with
the origin pinned, redirects refused, timeouts and byte caps. The routes
are cookie-only and owner-only. The token is registered for rotation,
removed by Delete all data, and not carried in backups.
