Dynamically build Portal URL

Hello experts,
I'm searching for a possibility to build up dynamically a portal url like this:
http://<hostname>:<port>/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=navurl://dcaceb3f782aa37c63aedfdc8347c7b5&....
&CurrentWindowId=WIDDefaultExternal1250835714537&NavigationContext=navurl://39fccbe94b41d07fd15b942490ec5e9e
The goal is it to start the browser with the seached URL from an ABAP report. How to start the internet browser I allready now. Is there any ABAP class for building such urls with parameter support?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Retrieve portal url dynamically.

Hi,
Could anybody pls let us know how to identify the portal Url dynamically using a function module or SAP Table?
We want to put this URL in the notification e-mail so it is dynamic when the object is moved to Quality and production systems.
Thanks in advance.

One way to make Portal URL dynamic is to create a ztable with fields ABAP system id and portal URL.
Select Portal URL from this table based on the sy-sysid.
By this way you dont have to change your code. Just change table entry on each server.
Hope this helps!

How to dynamically get Poral URL in ABAP WD Application?

Hello,
I have a ABAP WD application integrated into Portal as an iView. Now within this application in one of my method i need to know the Portal URL i.e., <protocol>://<server_name>:port/irj/portal
I know that i could hard code the Portal URL but the problem is that our Portal has got many URLs i.e., one for the internal users, another for VPN users and another for mobile users etc., and so i would like to dynamically get and build the URL for other target Portal iViews.
I tried using some standard class methods but all of them returned with SAP Application servers HTTP details where as i am only interested in Portal HTTP details.
Can anybody please tell me how to get this?
Thanks and Regards,

Need help dynamically building combo-boxes...

How can I dynamically build drop down lists?
I was thinking about using a dynamic page, with bind variables
set for sql statements inside <oracle></oracle> tags, or passing
the variable from the first selection to the second selection of
another page (or the same page?)...
Another thing I was thinking about would be to base a form on a
DB procedure, and pass the selections to the procedure, and re-
build the lists that way...
I need to avoid client side processing (javascript) because of
accessiblity concerns.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...

Ajay,
The following is an excerpt of the code I used. Because of a
lack of time, I haven't made the code generic. The code is used
to interface with Oracle Reports 6i & Oracle Configurator. The
configurator (config_hdr_id & config_rev_nbr) parameters are
selected by the user and passed into Oracle Reports using related
dynamic combo-boxes. Pay particular attention to the
wwpro_api_parameters.get_value function as well as the onChange
javascript. Hope you can take pieces of this for an example.
The following is the code for a Portal dynamic page:
<html>

Dynamically build parameter list

I'm after an easy way to dynamically build a list of ALL the defined parameters within the additional PL/SQL code section on a portal report. I then want to use p_arg_names / p_arg_values to retrieve and store the passed values in a table.
To clarify, the report may have 10 parameters of which say only 5 are passed on a particular run. I need to then populate 10 columns which includes nulls for the parameters not passed. This way parameter values will always be written to the same column.
I aiming to use this as generic code to apply to several other reports which will write to the same table.
Ron

In case anyone else needs this I'll post the solution myself.
1. p_arg_names and p_arg_values (shows only the populated parameters / values)
2. l_arg_names and l_arg_values (shows all the parameters / values)
So in my case I needed to reference l_arg_names and l_arg_values.

Portal URL for file v. text v. PL/SQL item types?

I am using Portal 10.1.2.2.0. From the Portal OWA logger data, how can I tell a file item type from a text item type from a PL/SQL item type?
The OWA_LOGGER_DOC view iis looking for url like '%/docs/%', but all the document URLs are '%/ITEM/%'. The URLs to text items also appear to be '%/ITEM/%'.
How can I tell that a Portal URL is pointing to a document?

OK, I figured out a way to do this in my environment (Oracle Portal Version: 10.1.2.0.2 (Build: 150) ). Your mileage may vary.
I created a procedure which includes the following:
    p_headingText IN VARCHAR2,
    p_fileName IN VARCHAR2,
    p_descriptionText IN VARCHAR2)
is
    l_portalGuid VARCHAR2(50);
begin
    select GUID into l_portalGuid from portal.wwv_things where ID = p_fileName;
    htp.p('<p class="PortletText1"><a href="http://[HOSTNAME]/pls/portal/url/item/' || l_portalGuid || '">' || p_headingText || '</a> ' || p_descriptionText || '</p>');
end;This seems to work for me. (Sorry about the long line.) p_headingText, p_filename, and p_description are passed from the custom item type. Good luck!

Dynamically build a SAP Transaction menu?

Hi All,
We are connecting EP7 to an ECC backend to run SAP transactions.
Rather than building hundreds of roles in the portal, or uploading them, is it possible to have the portal dynamically build a detailed navigation menu for each user by reading a person roles in the backend ECC system?
I've heard that this can be done with a custom iView. It reads the User Menu from the backend and displays it in the portal. Is this iView available for downloading?
Thanks

Hi Anton,
If I understand you correctly then you have a webdynpro iView with 2 values and you want to access a transaction iView by sending these 2 values as input parameters.
You can achieve this using Portal Navigation. This document provides details:

Getting current portal url and port no

Dear all,
Please let me know how to get the current portal hostname and port no . We are accessing the port thru <b>virtual hostname</b> and not by physical server name. We are using EP 7.0 SP10 . I need this virtual hostname and port no to build the url to access the images stored in server from Web Dynpro. I have created http alias for the images folder in the server. I need to build the url like <http>://<hostname>:<port>/<image alias name>/***.jpg to access the images from server.
Pls also share any other suggestions to access the images from the sever thru web dynpro
Thanks in Advance.

Different Portal URL Alias

Hi
I have a portal and it is http://abc:50000/irj/portal.
I want to setup another Portal URL Alias http://abc:50000/XK03
When user access this URL http://abc:50000/XK03, it will redirect to a transaction iView in PCD.
Only this special URL http://abc:50000/XK03 will be redirected.
Please let me know if this is possible with configuration or development.
Thanks.
Regards
Mike

1. Does it have to be http://abc:50000/XK03 or is it also allowed to go for http://abc:50000/irj/portal/XK03
If so then you could use "Quick Links" see the following for details:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/97/b0ef8b24a64ae884f0ab246e54cae5/frameset.htm
2. If http://abc:50000/irj/XK03 would be allowed then you could go for this solution:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/48/1d5d0171364269e10000000a421937/frameset.htm
(also mentioned by Mayank Mehta )
3a.If it has to be http://abc:50000/XK03 then you have to build a small web-application that is configured as /XK03.
(context root must be set, I guess).
OR
3b. You could also setup a SAP Web Dispatcher and configure:
- (SAP Web Dispatcher 7.01 and before) http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/48/3d993fb08c72d1e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm
- (starting from SAP Web Dispatcher 7.11 also the following) http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/48/9266acaa6b17cee10000000a421937/frameset.htm

How to catch URL parameter from Portal URL in Web Dynpro iView

Hi All,
I have a web dynpro application running as a portal iView successfully. Now the client wants to make it internationalized with 7 languages. Currently they access the portal - and via role assignment they get to the portal tab with the wd iView. Now they want to send a parameter for the language key with the portal URL. So when they are typing in http://myportal.mydomain.com now they want to type in http://myportal.mydomain.com?sap-locale=de or so. My question is how can I catch this parameter in the WD application when it is running inside a portal iView? Is it at all possible?
I have written a very small application which is trying to catch a URL parameter named PARAM. The code I have written is the default one as below:
String paramValue = WDWebContextAdapter.getWebContextAdapter().getRequestParameter("PARAM");
When I run the application standalone and add the PARAM=something in last of the URL I can catch it. But when I create an iView and while previewing it I add the same PARAM value it is coming as null all the time. Same when I add this iView to a role and show it via role assignment in protal. Please help to let me know how to achieve this. I think if I can read the parameter value from Portal URL in the WD iView - then I can set it as the default locale of the application and then show language specific file to achieve internationalization.
Your urgent help will be highly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Shubho

Hi Shubhadip
Even if you get the parameters, how do you internationalize your application? Are you not following the standard way as described in the following link. In this case you never need to capture any such parameter. This is done by the WD runtime automatically .
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/f4/d95664da179b4db731e21c2e470b72/frameset.htm">Internationalization of WD projects</a>
You can retrieve application parameters specified at the creation of iview by "adding parameters(with the same name as in iview application parameters) to the default plug of the Component Interface View of the WD application". "onDefaultPlug" method of the interface view controller you get these values as parameters, which you can save in the context node of component controller for later use.This is guaranteed to work.
But again this is not what you want exactly. You want the user to specify the value at runtime. If you have just 7 languages, you can create 7 set of iviews with different application parameter value indicating language key, and assign to 7 different set of roles, each representing one set of users with common language.
I hope you find a solution.

SSO is not working for an Alias URL but is working for original portal URL

Hello,
We have a BSP running inside the portal and expects authentication.
When I run this BSP using the portal regular address everything is working OK and SSO is working after logging into the portal.
At next step, we have configured an alias for the portal URL at the DNS Server.
When activating the BSP from the alias URL it asks for 2nd authentication. Meaning, SSO is not working after logging into the portal.
I have activated an HTTP trace in order to see why and it seems like when running it from the alias name it recognizes it as a different domain and I assume this is why the authentication is coming up.
I would like to suppress this for the alias URL but don't know how.
I found this UME property on the server:ume.logon.security.relax_domain.level
This UME property controls the amount of sub domains to remove from the server name to obtain the domain for which the logon ticket is valid.
I have changed this property from its default value 1 to 3 (and restarted the server of course) which, in our case, leaves only ourCompany.com for the ticket in the original server URL. Yet, the authentication pop up is still not supressed when browsing through the alias URL.
Any idea what can I do next?
Thanks,
Roy

Hi Dezso,
I found the 401 let me know if I look on it right:
I have an entry node with two subnodes: request and response.
The response has:
<responseStatus>HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized</responseStatus>
And the request before that doesn't have any MYSAPSSO2 in it, all it has which is related to cookies is this:
<header name="Cookie">UserUniqueIdentifier=1174345919524; alreadyLogged=1179560552416</header>
<cookies>
<cookie name="alreadyLogged">1179560552416</cookie>
<cookie name="UserUniqueIdentifier">1174345919524</cookie>
</cookies>
Can you advice what to do next?

How to create an External Alias for a Portal URL ?

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody tell me how to create an external alias for a portal link(URL). Actually, my problem is i want to send this Portal URL(link) thru' a SendMail step to the user so that when he clicks on it, it will take him to his UWL(Ofcourse after signing-in). As this URL length is > 80 char(101 char), i am not getting the full lenght URL in my Outlook mail. THough we are on ECC 6.0,Basis Rel 7.0, as per the OSS note 559234, we should have this length extended to 132 bytes. But, for some reason, its not happening. And,in the same OSS note, it was mentioned that we can use external aliases to achieve this(shortening the URL length).
Can anybody tell me how to achieve this, either thru' increasing the URL length or thru' ext. aliases.
Please reply asap.
Thanks in advance

Free way to dynamically build a form that adobe reader can fill out?

It's 2008 and we don't have a open, free way to dynamically build a pdf form that adobe reader can populate with data? Why is Adobe charging for this sort of thing? Does this make sense to anybody?

> Why is Adobe charging for this sort of thing?
That seems to me the way economics works. People charge for things
that other people are prepared to pay for. It's no good trying to
charge for things that nobody will pay for.
>Does this make sense to anybody?
Adobe's shareholders, I would think, who will sack Adobe's management
if they do not make money.
By the way, the PDF specification is open. If you want something for
free, why not implement it and share it with the world, who will
surely be pleased. (You will not be able to implement a form that
Reader can save, however, this is based on trade secrets).

Dynamically loading the url of a web reference object in C#

Hi,
We have a number of assemblies (C# - VS 2010) that access third party web services via SOAP. The url to access the site is part of the web reference object.
We have need to be able to change the url used to access the service at run runtime when conditions require.
What would the be the best practice of dynamically setting the url to be used at run time?
Thanks in advance.
SanDegan99

You could specify the URLs as keys in the application configuration file (App.config or web.config) of the main application:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.configuration.configurationmanager.appsettings(v=vs.110).aspx
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa374182(v=vs.85).aspx
App.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5" />
</startup>
<appSettings>
<add key="url1" value="http://www.url.com/test.asmx"/>
</appSettings>
</configuration>
You can then retrieve these values using the ConfigurationManager class in any assembly that is referenced from the main application like this (add a reference to System.Configuration.dll):
string url = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["url1"].ToString();
You can change the values of the keys in the application configuration file without having to recompile the application.
The other option is to specify the URLs in a database or some other persistent storage from which you read at runtime but configuration files are generally used to store these kind of variable application settings.
Please remember to mark helpful posts as answer to close your threads and remember that any new question you may have should be asked in a new thread of its own.
