Connect the Publisher to a CartoVista Server

The CartoVista server needs to be connected with the publisher to access the GIS layers and attribute data stored on the server to create maps and to publish on the map portal.

You need to bind the two together.

The binding between the CartoVista Publisher and the CartoVista Server is done automatically starting with version 7.1.

During the installation, a pop-up will ask you for your email address and password.

Instructions

You need to have the appropriate licensing options to use the publisher and the server.

     1. Open the publisher and go to Tools Preferences.
