External tab document extension
The External Tab Document feature helps you show tab content in a properties tab based on an external URL request when a node document is selected.
This option is only available if you have enabled the External tab document feature.
There are several parameters passed as request parameters in the URL request:
- The authentication token (encrypted)
- The document uuid
- The userId
Configuration
| Field / Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
extension.external.tab.document |
List |
Each row consists of a pair of values declaring tab content; the format is: name;url name1;http://localhost:8180/openkm/test.jsp |
|
webservices.visible.properties |
List |
To make the values of the parameter "extension.external.tab.document" accessible to all users, the value "extension.external.tab.document" must be added to the current list. If you forget to add the property name, only administrators will be able to retrieve the value, so some extensions may produce errors for regular users. |
More information at Configuration parameters.
