Use the integration guide for your photo booth software.

Step by step

  1. Download DslrBoothDroplet.exe from Instructions. Choose a location where the operator can save settings and replace the selected photo. Keep a separate copy of the original.
  2. Open your own effect in DropAi and copy its public link, preserving any output, QR and naming parameters. Keep the effect password private.
  3. Open DslrBoothDroplet and fill in Effect Url: and Password:. Settings save automatically. If saving fails, choose Retry save, reopen the app and check that the settings are still there.
  4. In Instructions, open #instructions-dslrbooth and follow the dslrBooth setup video. Compare the demonstrated settings with your installed version before changing the booth.
  5. Configure the booth to call the app with the captured photo’s full path. Check the command and permission to write to the source folder before a session.
  6. dslrBooth normally takes one argument: the full source path. Example: DslrBoothDroplet.exe "C:\BoothTest\source.jpg". The older output-name and source-path mode also works. Put paths with spaces in quotation marks.
  7. Check the effect cost and run one authorised test session. Inspect the complete replacement file and open the result link or QR code on a phone. DslrBoothDroplet does not back up the original or notify the booth, so keep your own original.

Cost

Each generation is billed in credits according to the selected effect and its final outcome. Check the displayed cost before starting. A new attempt is a separate job.

What to check

Compatibility depends on your booth software, Windows version and capture settings. Test the camera, file replacement and guest download on the workstation you will use.

If something goes wrong

If the photo is not replaced, check the final job status, password, full file path, folder permissions and app log. Keep the original until you have checked the result. Do not send your password to support.
