Great overview of Paperless NGX. The vast majority of videos on paperless are about deploying it with docker etc. There’s a shortage of good videos explaining how it works and how to use it in practice. Nice work!
Thanks for your positive feedback - yes I try to rather give as much info as possible rather than a very short overview. I'm doing quite a bit of scanning from the mobile app now, and it is working flawlessly.
Hi @GadgeteerZA, just to clarify, Correspondent refers to the person/organization you are communicating with in the document. A bill from your credit card would have Natwest as correspondent for example, this will help the machine learning to assign them automatically, you can use tags to identify the person it is intended too in your family
Thank you again for this great review. I did not know about this software, and I was searching for something like this for our school. This is just perfect.
Thanks I hope it also helps spread some awareness amongst the youth about useful open source software - something that startup businesses can be using too.
I hate when i start a project just to find someone already made something just like it, but better, halfway into it. THO I also love that I can make mine quicker improving this one instead! I HATE doing UI, that's why i'mma get hands dirty in this, thanks for your video!
I can imagine, but so true that it does give a lot of inspiration. I've seen that with the Stream Deck for Linux software, where one dev realised the other software was so way ahead he recommended users move to it. Now I've seen an even more advanced one, but I think it will also inspire the 2nd project with some better ideas (they do things slightly differently). That's the great part about open source - being able to inspire and build more growth, not just replacing existing projects.
Cool system. Does it support fine grained RBAC security, per document, e.g., This particular document, is viewable by this user, that user, and this group of users over there, only
This is what it offers per user for settings to access as well as to a path - imgur.com/bRCJONx. Many of those are UI access such as seeing or changing tags. I see the project did say they had disabled actual encryption per document. So the path is the most secure way to separate users' documents, I think.
@@GadgeteerZAi need mostly to use the REST api and have granular access. Seems shaky to use tags or meta to do this somehow, i dont see at this point ant other posibillity
@@Birdynmnm ah OK their API docs are at docs.paperless-ngx.com/api/ but I'd suggest rather checking the technical details on their Github project as I've really not looked into the API perspective myself.

I'm glad you found my video a bit more informative. For me, the why and what is important in deciding whether to install and use something.
Most comprehensive walkthrough for paperless-ngx I have seen! Thank you very much!

Thank you quite true - I'm misusing it a bit ;-)

@@GadgeteerZA I totally agree. I am doing my part here spreading as much as I can for love to OpenSource. Awareness is on of the first things.
Thank you for this lovely experience and insightful content
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice , something i didn't know , keeping notification on was worth it.
Good to hear! Yes I don't pump out videos daily or weekly, so a notification can be useful ;-)
Great overview. I think you meant Machine Learning rather than Machine Language, though.
@@okarakoo thank you! Well spotted 😂
