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#_objectID
/new/_form_title=formName/fieldName=value/...
- Line breaks are added on this page 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.
- objectID - The ID of the Object, taken from the Object Information section of the Object Properties.
- formName - 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.
- 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.)
- When examining a Form, you see field labels. But the internal field name must be specified in the URL.
- 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
- 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://processing.mycompany.com/networking/servicedesk
/index.jsp?applicationId=123456789#_84758b
/new/_form_title=Agent+Form/priority=1/status=Pending">
Click here
</a>
- <a href="https://processing.mycompany.com/networking/servicedesk
- In this example:
- domain = processing.mycompany.com
- appID = 123456789
- objectID = 84758b
- formTitle = Agent+Form ("+" replaces the space in the form name)
- field #1 = priority, prefill value = 1
- field #2 = status, prefill value = Pending
- 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
