You can use URL parameters to customize views of the Work
feature in IBM® Content
Navigator.
For example, you can create a URL that opens a single in-basket with
or without the tree of worklists.
About this task
The URL can save time for users because it is a shortcut
to a particular in-basket and can provide a view that removes extraneous
details from the user interface, such as other in-basket tabs for
an
IBM FileNet® P8 process role,
or the work browse tree.
Procedure
To create a shortcut URL to worklists and in-baskets:
- Create the base URL for the work feature as described in Constructing a URL for IBM Content
Navigator. For example, create a URL like this:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=P8_or_CM_System&feature=workPane
- Append one or more of the following parameters to the work
URL. Separate each parameter-value pair with an ampersand (&).
Parameters |
Valid values |
applicationSpace |
The display name for the application space, for example,
DefaultApplication. Example:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=FileNet_P8_System&feature=workPane&applicationSpace=DefaultApplication
|
role |
The display name for the process role in-basket, for example,
Personal Work, Public Work, or Personal
Items. Example:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=FileNet_P8_System&feature=workPane&applicationSpace=DefaultApplication&role=Personal
Work
|
worklist |
The display name for a specific IBM FileNet P8
in-basket or for a specific IBM Content
Manager worklist. Format:
worklist=My_In-basket_or_Worklist
Example:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=FileNet_P8_System&feature=workPane&applicationSpace=DefaultApplication&role=Personal
Work&worklist=My Inbox
|
allWork=false |
The work browse tree displays the list of in-baskets or worklists. This
parameter hides the work browse tree and displays only the specified in-basket or worklist. If
you do not specify allWork=false, the work view tree will be built
and displayed by default.
Example:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=FileNet_P8_System&feature=workPane&applicationSpace=DefaultApplication&role=Personal
Work&worklist=My
Inbox&allWork=false
|
singleInbasket=true |
This parameter prevents multiple in-basket tabs from opening when you specify
a process role that has multiple in-baskets.- true
- Open the specified in-basket in a tab and do not open other in-baskets in any other tabs.
If the specified process role has multiple in-baskets and you do not specify the parameter
and value singleInbasket=true, all of the in-baskets for the
process role will be opened in separate tabs by default.
Example:
http://myserver.mycompany.com:9080/navigator/?desktop=AccountsPayable&repositoryId=FileNet_P8_System&feature=workPane&applicationSpace=DefaultApplication&role=Personal
Work&worklist=My
Inbox&allWork=false
|
- Encode any special characters in the URL, such as spaces
in the display name. For example, use UTF-8 encoding
to support extended character sets.
What to do next
You can distribute the URL to users so that they can access
a particular worklist or in-basket directly. Plug-in developers can
implement the URL in an application or portlet to display the worklist
or in-basket in an application outside of
IBM Content
Navigator.
