Using Survey Data
Hotfolder can read Survey Data that has been captured by Breeze Remote Pro and Breeze Booth. This allows you to use the data collected for such things as:
- adding custom text to layouts
- setting filenames
- setting background/overlay suffixes
- modifying Post Processing URLs
Use Case Example
A great use case for this is background processing of AI Images. Capture the images at the Photo Booth (Remote Pro or Breeze Booth) and let Hotfolder do the AI Processing and printing. This means guests don’t have to wait for processing to complete at the Photo Booth.
Let’s say you are doing an AI (Face Swap) Trading Card in Breeze Booth, where the survey asks:
- Name {survey1_text_name}
- Shirt Number {survey1_text_shirt}
- Gender {survey2_radio_gender}
- Skin Tone {survey2_radio_skin}
You can now use the Survey Tokens in Hotfolder, just like you can in Remote Pro and Breeze Booth.
Photo Booth Setup
Disable Post Processing and Printing in Breeze Booth, and have Hotfolder monitor the folder containing the original images and XML Summary files.
Layout Setup
In the custom layout in Hotfolder, you can then use {survey1_text_name} and *{survey1_text_shirt} *to add the players name and shirt number to the layout as text captions.
Post Processing Setup
In Post Processing you can set the URL (if using Breeze FX) to something like:
https://fx.breezesoftware.com/api/generate/company/{survey2_radio_gender}-{survey2_radio_skin}
which, for example, might return:
https://fx.breezesoftware.com/api/generate/company/male-tanned
