Web Review

About

The Grooper Web Review client allows users to connect to a Grooper dashboard over the internet via a web server. This allows end-users to process review based activities in a Batch Process in a web browser, without the need to install Grooper on their own machine.

Installation

Setting up the Grooper Web Review client is done in three simple steps:

1. Install the IIS components on your server.
2. Install the Grooper Web Server application.
3. Open the Web Review URL in a browser and start using it.

As a side note, there are some additional requirements for users scanning paper documents into Grooper with a physical scanner. These requirements will be detailed in the #Scanning with Web Review section of this article.

1. Install IIS

The first step to setting up your server for Grooper Web Review is installing the IIS (Internet Information Services) components.

⚠	It's important to do this step first. Setting up the IIS components first will make the Web Review installation process much simpler down the road.

Open the Server Manager application. Select Manage. Select Add Roles and Features.
On the following screen, select Next.
Next, you will be asked to select the Installation Type. Select Role-based or feature-based installation. Select Next to continue.
Next, you will be asked to select a server on which to install the IIS. Select the server. FYI: The local server is selected by default. Select Next to continue.
In the following screen, scroll down to the bottom of the list to select Web Server.
In the following prompt, select Add Features. Then, select Next.
No additional Features are necessary. Select Next to continue.
On the Web Server Role (IIS) screen, select Next.
In the Role Services selection panel, select the following components (FYI: If a window appears asking you to add features, select Add Features): Web Server Common HTTP Features Default Document Static Content Security Request Filtering Basic Authentication Windows Authentication Application Development .NET Extensibility 4.5 ASP.NET 4.5 ISAPI Extensions ISAPI Filters WebSocket Protocol Management Tools IIS Management Console IIS 6 Management Compatibility IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility IIS Management Scripts and Tools Management Service Select Next after all components are selected.
The last step is to confirm your IIS installation. Verify the settings are correct and all required components are present. Select Install.
Close the install wizard. FYI: You may close the install wizard while IIS is installing. It will continue to install in the background.
Upon successful installation, we can see IIS in the Server Manager application. With IIS installed, our next step is to install the Grooper Web Server.
