Valid URL parameters for an Infor Smart Office ClickOnce installation
The link in the index.htm page points to the Installation Point URL.
The format of the Infor Smart Office installation URL is
http://ServerName/VirtualRootAlias?server=Value&Parameter=Value
You can add parameters on the URL to set new default values that cannot be configured in Infor Smart Office Settings. After the client has been installed and the shortcut is created in the Start menu, the URL values are removed by the ClickOnce installation. ButInfor Smart Office stores them in a local file so the client can be started without needing to specify the parameters again. However if the user wants, he/she can create a new internet shortcut with the install URL and specify any parameters and then use the new shortcut instead for the one created by the ClickOnce installation.
The valid parameters are described in the table.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Server |
The server parameter is required. URL to the Grid where the Infor Smart Office server is installed. The URL must be a https address, otherwise an exception will be thrown when using the URL. Whenever starting Infor Smart Office through an URL, this parameter must be set. Example
|
| Profile |
The Profile parameter makes it possible to start Infor Smart Office with a specific profile. When the Profile parameter is specified on the URL, it will override any changes the user has made in the Settings dialog. However, if the SelectedProfile setting is marked as read-only by an administrator, this parameter is ignored. Example
Note: Spaces are not allowed in a URL. If your
profile name contains spaces, replace each space with %20. For example,
My Profile must appear in the URL as My%20Profile.
If you are regularly using more than one profile, you can create multiple internet shortcuts on the Windows Desktop and configure them with different profiles. For more information on profiles, see About system profiles. |
| Task |
Use this format to create a link to Infor Smart Office and have it start a specific program. Use the task parameter to specify the program to start. In the example below, Infor Smart Office will open and start the Lawson Enterprise Applications form HR11. Example
|
| Language |
Use this parameter to override the Regional and Language Options setting on the user's machine. If the user has manually changed the language in the Infor Smart Office Settings dialog, the language parameter in the URL is ignored. If the language specified does not exist, English (en-US) will be used. To get a list of possible language values, see the Installation Point. Example
|
| DeleteAll |
Delete all local files, clear database etc. Use this if the client fails to start and the reason may be some corrupt files. It can also be used when giving a class to reset the client to original state. Example
