Using the Open parameter to open a TM1 Web object

To open and display a TM1® Web object, use the Action=Open command and the Type parameter.

The Open parameter specifies that you want to open and display a TM1 Web object and the Type parameter specifies which type of object.

Action=Open&Type=object_type

The object_type can be either WebSheet or CubeViewer. Depending on the object type, additional parameters are required to specify the exact object to open. You can also set the title selection and other display properties in the same URL when you use the Open command.

For example, the following URL shows an example of using the Open and Type parameters to open a CubeViewer object.

http://localhost:9510/tm1web/UrlApi.jsp#Action=Open&Type=CubeViewer&Cube=plan_BudgetPlan&View=Budget%20Input%20Detailed&AccessType=Public&AdminHost=localhost&TM1Server=Planning%20Sample

After you open a Websheet or CubeViewer object in your web page, you can then use parameters to apply more actions to the object. For more information, see Applying parameters and actions to an existing TM1 Web object.
