Navigating and Sharing via URL¶
In IC-Web, you can use URLs to navigate to or share specific sections of IC-Web.
Navigating via URL¶
It is possible to navigate to sections of IC-Web and select page elements via URL parameters. The URL parameters direct the browser towards an area of the database via GET request. The key searchKey refers to a table and the value searchValue refers to the numeric ID of the element in the table. A overview of inputs can be seen below.
<table> value |
<value> meaning |
---|---|
Asset |
Component_ID |
Library |
Library_ID |
Planning |
Component_ID |
Workpack |
Workpack_ID |
Review |
Header_ID |
Anomaly |
Anomaly_ID |
These parameters can be appended to the IC-Web url as follows:
https://demo.nexusic.com/valid.html ?searchKey=<table>&searchValue=<value>
Example:
Using the Expert Systems database, the following URL will direct to the Gas Transmission asset.
Note
For Asset, Planning and Review, a random view may be picked if the component exists in multiple views.
Sharing via URL¶
IC-Web assets, library items, workpacks, events, and anomalies can be shared via URL.
To generate this URL for sharing, select the row you would like to share on the page meant for viewing and click on the Get <xxx> Link toolbar button, where the text <xxx> depends on the screen you are on. For example, when you select an asset on the ASSETS and PLANNING screens, you use the Get Asset Link toolbar button. On the LIBRARY screen, you use the Get Library Link button, and so on for each docking screen.
The user of this link will be directed to the row and page you selected.
