APPLICATION - PRODUCT ENGINEERING - Email link to Aras Innovator Items (Documents in particular)

dbqw - Tuesday, June 29, 2010 5:43 PM:

I'd like to be able to add a hyperlink to an MS Outlook email to take someone directly to a document.  For instance, I'd like to send an email to an engineer asking them to look at a particular section of a document, and have a link in the email so they can just click on the link and be taken to the document in Aras Innovator.  There is a post on how to add a ULR (I think they meant URL) to an email, but it doesn't quite seem to work in the way I'm hoping it can.

I realize I'm digging up an old email here, but I have the same question as the fellow above an no one answered him the first time so I figured I'd throw it back out there.

I have tried a URL like 

   ourArasServer/.../default.aspx

but that just brings up the Aras login and ocne logged in, the normal start screen. Is there any way to jump to a specific item from a link?

HI,

After login I get the requested Item shown...

How will the URL look for getting the latest generation?

Aras is not able to that OOTB.

You need to modify method "runStartPage" and add the 'current' feature by yourself

the url will look like: aras/.../default.aspx

 

if (!top.aras.setup_query.StartItem) return;
var arr = top.aras.setup_query.StartItem.split(":");
var type = arr[0];
var id = arr[1];
var current;
if( arr.length > 2){
  current = arr[2];
}
if (!type || !id) {return;}
var itm;
if (current==="current"){  
   itm = top.aras.getItemLastVersion(type, id);
   top.aras.setup_query.StartItem = "";
//debugger;
} else {
   itm = top.aras.getItemById(type, id, 0);
//debugger;
}

if (itm) { top.aras.uiShowItemEx(itm, undefined, true);}
