**PlotID**

`PlotID` is a toolkit that labels your plots and figures and copies all associated data (research data, plotting script, user-functions and a copy of the figure) to the desired location.

This version of `PlotID` is build for `MATLAB`.
-`PlotID` provides two core functions TagPlot and Publish which are described in detail below.

The config file is a JSON-File. At the moment two options can be set in the config file, the project ID and the remote Path.
