Workspace URL parameters

I recently noticed that LiveCycle workspace URL has few parameters which would be really helpful in LC projects.

The format to livecycle workspace URL is something like this:

http://[server name]:[port]/workspace?[parm]=[value]

• [server name]is the name of the LiveCycle ES server
• [port] is the server port used for LiveCycle ES
• [parm] is the name of the parameter
• [value] is the value of the parameter

Three possible types of URL that we can use with the help of URL parameters are:

1. URL pointing to a Task (Work item in To-Do list)

- http://localhost:8080/workspace?taskId=100

2. URL to open workspace with any of the three tabs of workspace -

- http://localhost:8080/workspace?startPage=startProcess
- http://localhost:8080/workspace?startPage=toDo
- http://localhost:8080/workspace?startPage=tracking

3. URL to open a form from Start Process page to kick off a new process -

- http://localhost:8080/workspace?startEndpoint=[service name].[endpoint name]

The last one is in fact the most interesting one as you can publish the links on company portal and that will straight away open the relevant form so everyone wouldn’t have to find the form in Start Process page.
