Configuring AgileForms Back Office Integration

Note: This component is necessary to perform SharePoint lookups from AgileForms. However, this functionality and the installation of this component are optional. Please note that this component deploys a globally available web service on the SharePoit machine. This web service is deployed using a standard SharePoint solution under the layouts folder. If you do not install this component, you can still perform SharePoint lookups for AgileForms using a custom web service.

If you want to configure Back Office Integration using the executable configuration tool:

Open the file [AgileForms Integration for SharePoint installation folder]\AgilePoint.AgileForms.BackOfficeConnector.exe.
