3.7.6 Direct Access URL
Direct Access URL allows you to display a desired Integrated Operation Viewer window from the applicable URL.
Multiple users receiving an email with the URL of a specific node attached to it can directly display the desired window from that URL. This is particularly useful when information needs to be shared among multiple users. Even those users who have been authenticated by means other than JP1/Base can display the desired window by single sign-on.
The actual window displayed varies depending on the items specified in the direct access URL.
-
When a tree SID is specified:
The window is displayed with the IM management node selected.
-
When a sunburst chart format or tree format is specified
The type of chart displayed in the Operating status area varies depending on the specified item.
-
When a tab is specified:
The window is displayed with the specified tab selected.
-
When a serial number is specified:
The window is displayed with the IM management node corresponding to the serial number selected.
-
When a serial number and a tree SID are specified:
The window is displayed with the IM management node corresponding to the serial number selected and the Event detail dialog box displayed.
The information necessary to display a particular window must be included in the URL as a query parameter. For details about the URL format and parameters, see 4.12 Setting up the direct access URL in the JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager Configuration Guide.
The following figure shows how to use Direct Access URL to allow a user to display the Event detail dialog box.

Direct Access URL also offers the following functions: Direct Access URL Acquisition by Node Selection and OpenID-authenticated Direct Access URL.
Direct Access URL Acquisition by Node Selection allows you to acquire the URL of the IM management node selected in the Integrated Operation Viewer window. This function allows you to send the URL acquired from the window to other users so that they can view the same window with the IM management node selected in it. For details about this function, see the explanation provided under Operation menu button in 2.1 Overview of the Integrated Operation Viewer window in the manual JP1/Integrated Management 2 - Manager GUI Reference.
OpenID-authenticated Direct Access URL allows you to use Direct Access URL by single sign-on through authentication by the OpenID provider. For details about single sign-on through authentication by the OpenID provider, see 3.7.5 Linkage with external products.
