For a detailed description of eToken installation and settings, visit its separate documentation. Here is a selection of the basics.

Saving the login details

To give eToken access to your certificates, you need to log in to the server that is running the Remote signing service. This means that to use certificates stored in FormFlow, you will need your FormFlow username and password and your FormFlow server address.

You can save the login details in eTokenu settings under a name of your choice. On your next login, you will only need to select the name from the list and confirm.

If your login details are not saved in eToken yet, add it as follows:

  1. Right-click the eToken icon on the taskbar.

  2. From the menu, select Settings and switch to the Login tab.

  3. Select Add.

  4. Enter the login details.

    • In Alias, enter a name that will be used to display this account in the list of login details.

    • In User and Password, enter your username and corresponding password.

    • Check Company login.

    • The field Web Service URL field is then displayed; enter the URL address for your organization’s server running the service. For FormFlow, the address will look like the following:

      formflow://[formserver address]/soap/signerInfo.php

      Replace [formserver address] with the actual address of your installation. If you are not sure what login details to use, consult your organization’s administrator.
