How to start the extension and clip Web content?

Start by clicking the icon of the installed Webclipper extension in your Chrome or Firefox browser [1].

Enter the ITONICS system domain URL to connect the Webclipper to your ITONICS Innovation OS (e.g., https://itonics-innovation.itonics.io/).

Sign in and ensure that you are also logged into your ITONICS Innovation OS system.

When you come across a webpage you'd like to save, simply click the Save Clip button [1]. The Webclipper will clip:

• a title,
• abstract,
• image, and
• the source URL 

Once a clip was successfully added to the ITONICS Innovation OS, the Webclipper extension shows a success message "Page clipped". 

Where and how to access the clips inside ITONICS? How to share clips with other users?

To access the clipped content or all your clips, click on the home icon or the link "clips" on the Webclipper extension [3].

Within the ITONICS Innovation OS, navigate to the user account menu and select the "My Clips" option [4]. This centralized location ensures that all your saved content is easily retrievable and ready for further use - like sharing it with your colleagues.

You will find all your clips with a date stamp of the clipping listed [5]. When you click on an entry, the clip will open to the right, including the title, abstract, image clipped, and the source URL [6]. 

From here, you can delete the clipping via the trash icon or share it with your colleagues by clicking "Create element from clip" [6]. The clip will now be copied into any of your element types within the workspace you are currently signed in. Via the modal, you can select the element type [7], and once happy publish it [8]. 

The title, abstract, image, and source are automatically populated in the new element. From there, you can customize and enrich the element profile to suit your specific workflow needs. The new element is always added to the currently active Workspace. 

A reference to the created element will be added to the card of the clipping [9].
