The PicApport URL's
In addition to the homepage (landing page), the following pages of the PicApport web interface can be accessed directly via URL’s.
Prerequisite is that there is a public user PicApport with password picapport or
a user is linked to the IP address of the browser (WLAN). (See also: PicApport – Usermanagement)
Since version 9.1 a user can also be logged in automatically via the atu parameter (AccessToken).
The examples below refer to the PicApport demo page as of August 2017.
picapport#home
This is the landing page (home page) of PicApport. (#home is optional and can be omitted but must be set when using the atu parameter).
Parameter
Name | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
atu | no | not set | atu = Access-Token-User (since version 9.1) An AccessToken can optionally be generated by the administrator for a user via the web interface of the user administration. With AccessTokens it is possible to start a PicApport session for a specific user account directly by calling it with a URL without the need to enter a user ID and password. We strongly recommend to use AccessTokens in public accessible networks only with activated https encryption. Example: https://mypicapportserver.com/picapport#home?atu=0r52e4TKqiSXgxFByxKpyA |
Example URL’s
(Please note that no AccessTokens are configured for the demos. So the logon page appears)
