Pass User ID as parameter in Target Mapping in LPD_CUST in Enterprise Portal

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have third party application which should be called from Enterprise Portal with EmployeeID to be passed as parameter in URL.

I have created link through LPD_CUST tcode.

Application TYPE: URL

URL: http://xxx.com

What to write in target App. parameters to pass employee code in URL as parameter?

Also how to open URL in new window without any iframe.

I tried Navigation Mode: EXTERNAL Headerless Window but not working as it is still using iframe.

Thank You.

Hi Mitul,

All of the ESS Starter Portal iviews are based on the Portal App Integrator iview template. This template will use an iframe. Rather than using a Launchpad you can create a portal Freestyle role and add a URL iView pointing to your application to it. The portal role, in combination with "Launch in a new window" property set to "Display in a seperate Window" no iframe will be used.

Alternatively you could use a reverse proxy to strip out the X-Frame-Options header from the other application

Best regards,

Hi Nick,

Thank you for reply.

Is it not possible though LPD_CUST just by passing employee login as parameter to external application ?

I also tried to create portal URL iView , But not able to pass login id and "Display in separate window" setting is also not working and application is getting opened in iframe only.

Hi MItul,

For URL iview you must use Client Side Fetch mode for no iframe. A combination of passing parameters using URL iview as GET request should work ok.

Hi Narayana,

Link is not providing details configuration through LPD_CUST.

Also "Display in New Window" is not working and still getting opened in iframe.
