Configuring URL Parameters 

Use

Once you have defined the iView’s URL to the input XML feed, you may need to configure parameters that are passed to the information source as part of the URL. In the XML iView Editor, you can do the following with URL parameters:

●      Add, remove, and modify URL parameters

●      Determine whether or not portal end user can view and personalize URL parameters at runtime

●      Assign intuitive display names to URL parameters that are viewed or personalizable by portal end users

●      Specify the URL request method (GET or POST)

 

■       If you navigated to the source of the XML feed and defined the iView URL using the portal’s built-in browser, the URL parameters and request method may already be defined in the XML iView Editor.

■       For information on configuring parameters associated with the XML transformer, see Defining the XML Transformation.
