Quote from SK Dutta on September 8, 2021, 7:32 pmYou can post Contacts to the OfficeClip Contact Manager using various protocols. If you want to do it via HTTP POST protocol, follow these instructions:
- Login to the Contact Manager as an administrator and click on the Admin link.
- Click on the Publish button and create a publish form with the information that you want to be populated.
- Copy the Html created in a separate file (this html can be put anywhere so that your website visitors can enter information from here directly to the Contact Manager)
- Open up the html in an Editor, now look for the code where it says:
<form name="pubform" id="pubform".....
......
......
......
</form>- Inside this form you will see a lot of fields, some of them are input fields and some hidden fields and some are labels. You can remove all the static information, keep the hidden fields intact and have your program populate the other fields that you want to change. Some field names are numbered, so you may want to look at the labels to find out what they are.
Note: This article shows how to use the HTTP POST to directly post information to OfficeClip, If you want to have your user manually type and post the form, you can do it directly from Step 2 above.
