I have a link to start IFS10 but how do I pass parameters like the Login Name to the Login screen?

Like ‘/client/runtime/Ifs.Fnd.Explorer.application?User=tmd63’ so that it provides at least part of the login automatically

@tmd63 AFAIK the IFS10 URL you mentioned is for the IEE client which points to a Application Manifest file. Cannot pass parameters using ? as it does not follow HTTP GET request/ protocol.


Hi @tmd63 

 

As @Buddhika Kurera  mentioned, You cannot pass parameters to IEE client startup.

But it’s possible to remember the last login username in the login dialog. Hope this will east the login experience.

Check this post for more details and how to set it up.

HI @tmd63 

How to construct URL parameters for the IEE client is documented here. There is also a URL generator at the bottom of this page that assists you in generating the URL: 

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/default.htm?openpage=https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/Foundation1/050_development/022_user_interface/045_ee_dev/090_ifshome/default.htm

 

Having said that, your specific requirement of providing the username for the login dialog is not possible.

 

You can instead, as above comments have mentioned already, allow users to save their username & password via enabling cookies for the IEE client. This can be done via settings “ifs.oidc.rememberme.cookie.enabled” and “ifs.oidc.rememberme.cookie.lifetime” as described in the documentation here:

https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/default.htm?openpage=https://docs.ifs.com/techdocs/foundation1/040_administration/210_security/015_authentication/040_configure_DBIDP/default.htm#Configure_behaviour_through_startup_paramters


Thank you for all the suggestions. However, I am not the admin of the IFS server and I am also not the admin of my own PC. Therefore I cannot add any parameters to either my own PC or the IFS server.


Hi @tmd63 

Enabling of the “Remember Me” functionality for username & password to be stored can only be done by the IFS Administrator.

Passing other values (like searches parameters) into the client do not require administrator access and can be achieved as is documented in the documentation I have linked.
