Html Display Control - Url Parameters

Html Display Control - Url Parameters

Comments

  • Hi,

    Is it possible to use the Html Display Control by adding parameters to the URL string?
    The relevant page in the documentation seems to be the following (but it seems there is no longer a url parameter option, see image below):
    [url=https://documentation.decisions.com/display-html-page-using-url-parameter/]https://documentation.decisions.com/display-html-page-using-url-parameter/[/url]

    Thanks.

  • This documentation is referring to the DisplayHtmlPart component in the page designer. It looks like you are trying to accomplish the same thing in the form designer, with the HTMLDisplay component.

    Pages can be called from a URL, but forms cannot. They can either be embedded on a page with a flow run part, or the calling flow can be called from a URL.

    Can you explain your use case a bit more to see if we can help?

    Thanks.

  • I am trying to display a page (for a case entity) which embeds a html page from an external website (see image below) e.g. durham.nc.comper.info/?propertyID=137897.
    The url for the website needs to be dynamic though i.e. a url parameter for the case/property currently being viewed.

    What is the best way to achieve this?

  • I figured out a way to do this:

    Entity action on your case
    Entity action flow has an end form session step
    Step is set to navigate to another folder and sends the URL of the site we want to embed as a parameter
    Page has a DisplayHtmlPart and source type is FromUrlParameter

    Happy to join a call and review. Please, let me know if this approach is suitable. I believe there is a way to accomplish this by creating a page in the configuration folder but I couldnt seem to get it to work right.

    Thanks.
