By creating the appropriate URL, you can take a registered platform user to a Form that has select fields pre-filled with default data. For example, you could put a link to that URL on a JSP page, and even JavaScript to acquire the data from other sources.
- Syntax
-
https://domain/networking/servicedesk/index.jsp?applicationId=appID#_objectName
/new/_form_title=formTitle/fieldName=value/...
- (Line breaks have been added for readability. The URL must be a single contiguous string.)
where:
- The underscore ("_") before the object name is required, as are the underscores in the keyword, _form_title
- domain - The domain used to access the platform.
- appID - The application ID, taken from the Application Properties.
- objectName - The name of the Object, taken from the Object Information section of the Object Properties.
- formTitle - The name of the form, taken from the Form Properties.
- fieldName - The name of a Field that is displayed in the form.
- value - The value to pre-fill.
- Example
- This HTML code displays a "Click here" link in a JSP page. When clicked, the user is directed to a form that has two fields pre-filled.
- <a href="https://mycompany.com/networking/servicedesk
/index.jsp?applicationId=123456789#_objectName
/new/_form_title=formTitle/fieldName1=value1/fieldName2=value1">
Click here
</a>
- <a href="https://mycompany.com/networking/servicedesk
- In this example:
- domain = mycompany.com
- appID = 123456789
- objectName = xx
- formTitle = xx
- field #1 = xx, prefill value = xx
- field #2 = xx, prefill value = xx
- Considerations
-
- Only fields included in the form can be pre-filled. (Note that you can include hidden fields in a form, in order to include data that isn't immediately visible to the user.)
- For all parameter values, use "+" in place of a space.
Example: 217 Jason Street becomes: 217+Jason+Street - Parameters must be specified in the order shown, separated by a slash ("/")
- If a data value includes a "/", encode it using %2F.
Example: either/or becomes: either%2For
- Supported Fields
-
- BOOLEAN (value should be either 1 or 0 )
- CURRENCY
- DOUBLE
- GLOBAL_PICK_LIST
- NUMBER
- PERCENT
- PHONE
- PICK_LIST
- RADIO_BUTTON
- TEXT_FIELD
- TEXT_AREA
- TIME
