Task-oriented hyperlinking
You can add hyperlinks that are directly oriented to user tasks, from internal or external locations to IBM OpenPages® with Watson™ views. These hyperlinks can also include filters.
For example, in a notification email to a risk owner, you can include a hyperlink to the Filtered List View for Risks with the Risks Awaiting Assessment filter added to the link.
- The Detail View for a specific object instance, in read-only mode.
- A specific activity view for an object instance.
- The Filtered List View for a specific object type with a public filter applied.
- A specific grid view for an object type with a public filter applied.
- Add New wizard within the OpenPages application. The wizard opens in its own browser tab instead of a pop-up, even if the user was logged in to OpenPages when they clicked the link.
- OpenPages Reports.
- Notification emails.
- OpenPages Java™ Server Page (.jsp) file type helper applications.
- Within the OpenPages application, using computed fields or URL link fields.
- In the samples the URLs are created by using either the name value, or the resource ID value for views, objects, and filters.
- If you use a name for a value, replace any spaces in the name with the characters
%20
. URLs cannot contain spaces. - If you use a fileId, viewId, or filterId to create a URL, the values for the Ids are the resource IDs of specific object instances, views, or filters.
- There is one Filtered List View, but many possible Grid Views. There is one Detail View, but many possible Activity Views.
- For the Add New wizard hyperlinks you can combine the parameters in more ways than are described in the samples. For example, you can specify a parent without specifying a view.
- To Filtered List View with the object type, grid view, and filter specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/flv?prmt=<name of the object type>&view=<name of the grid view>&filter=<name of the public filter>
- To Filtered List View with the object type, Filtered List View, and filter specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/flv?prmt=<name of the object type>&view=Filtered%20List&filter=<name of the public filter>
- To Filtered List View or Grid View with the object type, view, and filter specified
- Syntax:
In this example, the values are resource IDs instead of names.
- To Filtered List View with the object type and view specified (previous filter is applied)
- Syntax:
When a filter is not specified, the most recent, previously used filter is applied. The view, and filter parameters are optional.
- To Filtered List View or Grid View, object type specified (previous view and filter are applied)
- Example:
/openpages/app/jspview/flv?prmt=SOXProcess
- To Detail View or Activity View
- Syntax:
In the following examples, the fileId value is expressed by using the <resource ID for the specific object instance>, while the view value is expressed by using either the view ID, or the <name of the view>.
/openpages/view.resource.do?fileId=<resource ID for the specific object instance>&view=<name of the view, which can be Detail, OR the name of one of the specific activity views>
- To Add New wizard with only the object type specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/addNew?objectType=<name of object type>
or
/openpages/app/jspview/addNew?objectTypeId=<id of object type>
- To Add New wizard with object type and view specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/addNew?objectType=<name of the object type>&viewName=<name of the view>
- To Add New wizard with object type, view, and parent object type specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/addNew?objectType=<name of the object type>&viewName=<name of the view>&parentObjType=<name of the parent object type>
or
- To Add New wizard with object type, view, and parent specified
- Syntax:
/openpages/app/jspview/addNew?objectType=<name of the object type>&viewName=<name of the view>&parentObjType=<name of the parent object type>&parentObjId=<id of the parent object >
