Integration with your web site

Top  Previous  Next

Users would normally access ResSched Web through by a link on your web site.   The URL requirements depend on your server settings and whether your users are allowed to use ResSched without logging in first (view only users).

 

If ResSched Web is the only web application on server,  you would probably use port 80 (see server settings)  and URL  format would be 'http://yourserveraddress' where yourserveraddress is either the IP Address or the DNS name for your server.   If another application is already using port 80,  you must designate another port for ResSched Web (usually 88) and append that port number in the URL  e.g., 'http://yourserveraddress:88'.

 

 

Direct Access to ResSched Web Without Logging In

 

If you are using ResSched Web to provide schedule information to the public or others without a ResSched user name,  you can include a view only user ID  as part of the URL and bypass the normal log in with some special considerations:

 

1.The view only user ID, created with the ResSched Corporate Edition,  must have be in upper case with no spaces or special characters;
2.You must include the view only user ID must included in the list of external IDs identified in server settings;
3./IndexPage must be included in the URL;
4.You must identify the user ID in the URL as '?username=youruserid' and the password as 'password=yourpassword'. For example,

"http://yourserveraddress:88/IndexPage?username=VIEWUSER&password=12345"

 

Users using this URL to access ResSched Web will be able to view the schedules of any resources that have been authorized for all users,  and those authorized for this specific user ID.

 

At this time,  all users must use the ResSched Web menu to select which schedules they want to see.  Future releases, will let you specify a particular schedule and resource or resource group in the URL.

 

Help Files

 

In a addition to this compiled HTML Help (chm), the ResSched Web setup program installs complete set of browser HTML help files in a sub folder (HTMLHelp). At this time, the HTML help files are not integrated with ResSched Web, but you can provide access to them on your web site.
