2021.1

In order to test or use any Capture OnTheGo features you need to have a Repository account
(also called a COTG Server account or the Repository ID). You can get a trial account for this
purpose; please see this page for more details: http://www.captureonthego.com/en/promotion/.
Once you have your Repository ID and Password, you also need to create a user account:
1. Go to the Capture OnTheGo Repository Login: https://config-us.captureonthego.com/.
2. Login with your Repository ID and Password.
3. Go to the Users page.
4. Add a new user. The user name should be in the form of an email address.
Next, make sure that the Capture OnTheGo mobile application is installed and that it is logged
on as a known user of the Capture OnTheGo Repository.
Now, with your Capture OnTheGo template open in the Connect Designer module, click on the
Send COTG Test… button in the toolbar.
Enter the appropriate information in the Send Test dialog (see "Send COTG Test" on
page1010).
Click Finish to send the document. It should automatically appear in the app's Repository for 4
days from the moment it is sent. Once downloaded it remains accessible in the app's Library for
2 days.
Tip
To manually delete a test template from the app's Library, swipe it to the left.
Submitting and previewing data
When you hit the Submit button in a template in the Designer (on the Live tab), the submitted
data can be sent back to the Designer in the form of an XML file (see below). The advantage of
this is that you can immediately start creating a data mapping configuration and use the data in
a template.
Data submitted from the Capture OnTheGo app can be sent to you in the form of an email or
saved via a Workflow configuration. Both options are explained below.
