Network Views URL parameters

You can open specific network views by using URL parameters.

URL parameters

The following table shows the URL parameters that you can pass to the network views.

Table 1. URL parameters for network views
Parameter	Description	Required?
`id`	Each saved network view has a unique ID. To find out the ID of a particular view, hover the cursor over the name of the view in the navigation tree. The ID is displayed in the status bar at the bottom of the browser window, and as a tooltip. Passing a network view ID in the URL to Network Views opens that network view. The view is shown without the navigation tree.	Yes
`networkViewDefaultTab`	Set the property to `bookview` to have the Bookmarks tab displayed by default when the network view opens. Set the property to `netview` to have the Libraries tab displayed by default.	No
`selectNode`	This is the entity ID of an entity to which you want the display to zoom in. If you specify this parameter, it enables the Toggle Overview button on the toolbar.	Optional
`showTree`	By default, this is set to true to display the network view tree as well as network view. You can set this to false to stop the network view tree from being displayed.	Yes

The following example shows the format of a Network Views URL containing the parameter id. Note that Topoviz URLs are case-sensitive.
