A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• generating credentials for accessing a transmission service;
• sending, from a first application to a second application, the credentials and a request to perform operations related to a scan job;
• receiving, at the first application from the second application, the credentials and a request to access the transmission service;
• determining whether the credentials received from the second application are valid;
• in response to determining that the credentials received from the second application are valid, getting a file from the second application using the transmission service;
• and
• sending the file to a destination.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer-readable media coupled to the one or more processors, the one or more computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
