Basic URL parameters​

warning

URL parameters are in ongoing development and may be subject to change in later versions without notice.

Open a View directly​

View URLs follow always the same scheme:

http://[Core-IP]/#/views/[ModuleID]

Example:

http://10.5.12.123/#/views/5

You can use this URL scheme to call a view directly.

Stand-alone Mode​

You can open a view without the menu frame for stand-alone solutions, e.g. an info display or door panel. Usage:

http://[Core-IP]/#/views/[ModuleID]?standalone=1

Use this call only in an empty tab or browser window.

Automatic login with user token​

You can login a user directly, e.g. for stand-alone solutions using his user token. See Toolbox setup & user management.

Combining multiple arguments​

You can combine multiple arguments. Use ''&'' to separate them. Example:

http://[Core-IP]/#/views/[ModuleID]?standalone=1&token=1234-1234-1234

Views App requires a recent Browser. Please see System Requirements for DHD Software for a list of tested browsers.
