display, on the display unit, an access code which is for accessing an upload destination of the scanned file;

the portable terminal comprising:

a camera, and

at least one processor for executing instructions causing the portable terminal to:

obtain information indicating an upload destination of the scanned file based on the reading of the access code by the camera;

access, using the obtained information, the upload destination of the scanned file; and

download the scanned file from the upload destination of the scanned file,

wherein the information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file includes authentication information related to an access of the upload destination of the scanned file, and

wherein, in a case where a condition is satisfied, the displayed access code on the display unit is deleted.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the reading apparatus further generates, as the access code, a code that includes information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file.

3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file is a signed URL (Uniform Resource Locator).

4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the authentication information includes a validity period.

5. The system according to claim 4 , wherein a second server different from the server sets the validity period.

6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the generation unit and the setting unit are comprised in a second server different from the server generates the access code.

7. The system according to claim 6 , wherein the second server generates the access code that includes a shortened URL (Uniform Resource Locator) corresponding to a signed URL as the information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file.

8. The system according to claim 7 , wherein the portable terminal accesses the upload destination of the scanned file using the signed URL obtained from the second server based on the shortened URL included in the access code.

9. The system according to claim 3 , wherein the portable terminal downloads the scanned file from the upload destination of the scanned file based on a result of a verification of an access of the signed URL.

10. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the condition includes accepting a user operation via the display unit.

11. The system according to claim 10 , wherein

a message prompting to read the displayed access code is displayed with the access code on the display unit.

12. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the condition includes that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed from when the access code was displayed.

13. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the access code is a two-dimensional barcode.

14. A reading apparatus capable of communicating with a server, the reading apparatus comprising:

a scanner for reading an original image,

a display unit, and

at least one processor for executing instructions causing the reading apparatus to:

upload to the server a scanned file including image data obtained by scanning an original image by the scanner; and

display, on the display unit, an access code which is for accessing an upload destination of the scanned file,

wherein the information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file includes authentication information related to an access to the upload destination of the scanned file, and

wherein, in a case where a condition is satisfied, the access code displayed on the display unit is deleted.

15. The reading apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the condition includes accepting a user operation via the display unit.

16. The reading apparatus according to claim 15 , wherein a message prompting to read the displayed access code is displayed with the access code on the display unit.

17. The reading apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein the condition includes that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed from when the access code was displayed.

18. A method for system including a reading apparatus, a server and a portable terminal, wherein the method comprising,

uploading, from the reading apparatus to the server, a scanned file including image data obtained by scanning an original image using a scanner of the reading apparatus; and

displaying, on a display unit of the reading apparatus, an access code which is for accessing an upload destination of the scanned file;

obtaining information indicating an upload destination of the scanned file based on the reading of the access code by a camera of the portable terminal;

accessing, by the portable terminal and using the obtained information, the upload destination of the scanned file; and

downloading, by the portable terminal, the scanned file from the upload destination of the scanned file,

wherein the information indicating the upload destination of the scanned file includes authentication information related to an access of the upload destination of the scanned file, and

wherein, in a case where a condition is satisfied, the displayed access code on the display unit is deleted.

19. A system including a reading apparatus, a first server, a second server different from the first server, and a portable terminal,

the reading apparatus comprising,

a scanner for reading an original image,

a display unit, and

at least one processor executing instructions causing the reading apparatus to:

upload to the first server a scanned file including image data obtained by scanning an original image using the scanner; and

display, on the display unit, an access code which is for accessing an upload destination of the scanned file;

the portable terminal comprising,

a camera, and

at least one processor executing instructions causing the portable terminal to:

obtain information indicating an upload destination of the scanned file based on the reading of the access code by the camera;

access, using the obtained information, the upload destination of the scanned file; and

download the scanned file from the upload destination of the scanned file;

wherein the information indicating the upload destination includes authentication information related to an access of the upload destination of the scanned file, and

wherein the authentication information includes a validity period set by the second server.

20. A method for system including a reading apparatus, a first server, a second server different from the first server, and a portable terminal,

the method comprising,

uploading, from the reading apparatus to the first server, a scanned file including image data obtained by scanning an original image using a scanner of the reading apparatus; and

displaying, on a display unit of the reading apparatus, an access code which is for accessing an upload destination of the scanned file;

obtaining information indicating an upload destination of the scanned file based on the reading of the access code by a camera of the portable terminal;
