It involves sending a request URL along with a page identifier from an external application. Parameters can be optionally passed to transfer the context to the launching page.

Host name :  On which DASH is installed.

Port number : Server port of DASH installation

Page Id :  Id of the page which you want to Launch.   ( Can be collected from About option of Page)

Optional params :  If  you want to pass the context to the Dashboarding widgets, the optional params can be provided. Param name would be the dataset column id and name/value should be properly url-encoded.
