openURL query parameter

The openURL query parameter allows external systems, through a URL, to instruct WebSphere® Portal to open a portal page. When the portal page opens, the Leap Portlet is then directed to load a specific Leap application.

The openURL parameter uses the following syntax:
 http://{Portal Server}/wps/mypoc?uri=FEB:{page id}&openURL={Application URL}
Where:
  • Portal Server is the domain and port that points to the specific WebSphere Portal server.
  • page id is the unique identifier of the portal page.
  • Application URL is the URL of the Leap application to be loaded by the Leap Portlet. For more information about format details of the Application URL, see Public render parameters.
Usage Details
  • The Application URL must be specified as a relative URL. If your Application URL contains two or more query parameters, you must encode it by replacing the ampersand (&) with %26.
  • The /wps and /mypoc syntax of the URL assumes a default WebSphere Portal context root. If you are not using the default context root, ensure that you adjust the URL for your environment.
  • At run time, the openURL query parameter is run as a public render parameter. For more information, see Public render parameters.
