Launch entry URL into an external application

A launch entry URL value can contain substitution variables that use data from the related business objects that you are viewing in the application.

For example, for a launch entry that is implemented in the Person application, you can substitute the name value into the URL string by using the attribute name, {attributename}. The following URL is a URL for the Person application that uses the PERSONNAME attribute:

https://extsyshost:9045/tcWebUI/interactionhandler?actionId=viewPerson&Person={PERSONNAME}

You can also provide an attribute from an object that is related to the main business object by specifying the relationship name and the attribute name {relationshipname.attributename}. The following URL includes a city attribute from an address. Use this URL in the People application when the ADDRESS object is related to a PERSON object with a relationship named ADDRESS:

https://extsyshost:9045/WebUI/interactionhandler?actionId=viewCity&cityname={ADDRESS.CITY}

Use the {sourcetoken} and the {reportinghostname} values in a URL when you want to launch to an operational management product console.
