Base settings
Name
The name of the client as it was assigned when the client was created. In addition, the system-internal ID and the total memory occupied by the client are also displayed.
Client picture
The image for the client can be customised here. Pictures in JPEG, JPG, PNG or SVG file format can be used from the file system.
Alias
An alternative or alias name for this client. The alias name is a unique identifier for this client and can be used to generate easier to read links to your form. For example, it lets you open a form with a link like https://formcycle.eu/form/alias/mandant/myform instead of https://formcycle.eu/form/provide/692. See also how to publish your form.
Language
Default language for forms, when no language has been specified such as by URL parameters.
This setting does not affect the language of the configuration interface of FORMCYCLE, which will be determined either automatically by the browser's preferred language, or it can be chosen manually on the sign in page.
Base URL
The base URL is used as the first part of the URL that will be used to open forms. Users of the form should be able to access this URL.
For example, when the base URL has been set to http://pro.formcloud.de/formcycle/
The URL to the form would look like thishttp://pro.formcloud.de/formcycle/form/alias/<Mandant Id>/<Name des Formulars>
Description
An optional short description for this client. The description will be displayed in client overview in the system settings.
Grant access for technical support
Grant access to the administration area
Grant access to the inbox
Mail settings
Allow use of the system mail server
Specifies whether the use of the system mail server configured is permitted. If use is not permitted, a separate mail server must be configured for the client.
Allow client specific mail server
Specifies whether the configuration of a client-specific mail server is permitted. If the use of the system mail server is not permitted, this option should be activated.
Custom sender address for system mail server
Defines the behaviour of a sender address if it differs from the address of the system mail server.
Note: These settings can only be configured by the system administrator and are otherwise not visible.
Mail address for support requests
The email address to which support requests are sent to. By default, when this is left empty, the global email address as set for the system is used. This setting may not be available when the system administrator did not allow it.
Use custom mail server
A mail server should be setup for each client. When no mail server has been configured, the system mail server will be used when it is available. In case no system mail server was configured, no emails can be sent, even if a client-specific mail server exists.
When no mail server is available, the following services will be deactivated:
- Forgot password and Reset password (sending recovery mails)
- Actions of type Email
The following mail server options can be changed:
Authentication
Mail server
Port
Mail server supports UTF-8 message headers (RFC6532)
Encryption
Sender address (System)
Sender name (System)
Allow custom sender address
Specifies whether it is permitted to use a different sender address that does not match the configured address when sending emails via the mail server. If a different sender address is not permitted, the option is greyed out in the E-Mail-Action and configuration is not possible.
Test mail
To test whether the e-mail server settings have been entered correctly, a test e-mail can be sent to any e-mail address.
Alternative sender name (system)
Enter the name to be used as the sender for system e-mails here.
