# Use PGA Coach with Onform

Use the PGA Coach app with Onform: record a PGA Coach student in Onform with one tap, send videos back to their PGA Coach chat, add your booking link, and see PGA Coach bookings in Onform's Calendar.

Works on: iPhone, iPad and Android. Recording from PGA Coach and sharing back to it need the Onform phone or tablet app, so they don't work in the web app. Unlinking your PGA Coach account is on iPhone and iPad.

PGA Coach is the PGA of America's app where students find you, message you and pay for lessons. Onform works alongside it, so you can:

* **Record a PGA Coach student in Onform with one tap.** Onform sets up a workspace for the student for you.
* **Send videos back** to your chat with that student in PGA Coach.
* **Add your booking link** so students can book their next lesson from Onform.
* **See your PGA Coach bookings** in Onform's Calendar, if you coach in an organization.

## Before you start

* Install both PGA Coach and Onform on the same phone or tablet, and sign in to both.
* Your Onform account links to one PGA Coach account at a time. It links the first time you record from PGA Coach.
* Your Onform and PGA Coach subscriptions are separate.

## Record a PGA Coach student

1. In Onform, use the account switcher to choose the account you want the student in: **Personal Account** or your organization.
2. In PGA Coach, open the student, tap **Record**, then choose **Open in Onform**.
3. Onform opens a workspace named after the student, straight into the camera. The first time, Onform creates the workspace for you. You don't need to add the student yourself.
4. Record as usual. Your videos save in that student's **Library**.

Next time you tap **Record** for the same student, Onform opens the same workspace.

If you coach in an organization where only admins create workspaces, you'll see **Ask an admin to add this athlete**. Ask an admin to set the student up, or record from your **Personal Account**.

## Send videos back to PGA Coach

The video needs to finish uploading first.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="iPhone and iPad" %}

1. In the student's **Library**, touch and hold the video and tap **Share**.
2. On **Select Recipients**, tap the more button (a circle with three dots) at the top right.
3. Under **Share elsewhere**, tap **Share To PGA Coach**.
   {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Android" %}

1. In the student's **Library**, tap the three dots next to the video and tap **Share**.
2. Tap the more button (a circle with three dots) at the top right.
3. Under **Share elsewhere**, tap **Share to PGA Coach**.
   {% endtab %}
   {% endtabs %}

PGA Coach opens and the video goes into your chat with the student. You can share several videos at once the same way.

**Share To PGA Coach** works for students you opened from PGA Coach. For other workspaces, share in Onform instead: see [Share videos with one or more people](https://github.com/Onform-Inc/onform-docs/tree/main/coaching/teach-and-share/how-to-share-videos-to-one-or-multiple-people.md).

## Or coach the student in Onform

You can also invite the student to their workspace in Onform, so they see their videos and Voice-overs and chat with you there. See [Invite your athletes](https://github.com/Onform-Inc/onform-docs/tree/main/coaching/organize-your-athletes/invite-your-athletes.md).

Which to use is up to you. New students who find you through PGA Coach are often happy to keep chatting there. Students you see often may find Onform easier over time.

## Add your booking link

Add your PGA Coach booking page to Onform and your students get a **Book Lesson** button in their workspace. Follow [Let athletes book lessons with you](https://github.com/Onform-Inc/onform-docs/tree/main/coaching/grow-your-coaching-business/bookings-and-scheduling-links.md). On iPhone and iPad, workspaces Onform creates from PGA Coach get your booking link automatically.

## See PGA Coach bookings in Calendar

If you coach in an organization and your plan includes Calendar Integration, you can see your PGA Coach lessons in Onform's **Calendar**, matched to each student's workspace.

1. Record one student from PGA Coach (see above), so your PGA Coach account is linked.
2. In Onform, switch to your organization, tap **Calendar**, and connect **PGA Coach**.

The full steps are in [Let athletes book lessons with you](https://github.com/Onform-Inc/onform-docs/tree/main/coaching/grow-your-coaching-business/bookings-and-scheduling-links.md#connect-your-scheduling-service).

## Switch or unlink your PGA Coach account

* **Switch:** if you record from a different PGA Coach account, Onform shows **PGA Coach Account Mismatch**. Tap **Yes, Make The Switch** to link Onform to the new account instead.
* **Unlink (iPhone and iPad):** on the Home screen, tap your profile icon, then tap **Unlink PGA Coach Account** and **Yes, Unlink**. You won't be able to send videos to PGA Coach until you link again. Videos you already sent stay viewable in PGA Coach, as long as you don't delete them in Onform.

## Questions

**I already have this student in Onform. Can I link PGA Coach to their workspace?**

Not at the moment. Tapping **Record** in PGA Coach creates a new workspace for the student. If you'd like everything in one place, move the videos from the old workspace to the new one, and you can then delete the old one.

**Can I send videos from an existing Onform workspace to PGA Coach?**

No. Open the student from PGA Coach with **Record** first. Videos in that workspace can then go to PGA Coach.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.onform.com/sports/launch-monitors-and-golf-hardware/how-pga-coach-works-with-onform.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
