External tab mail extension
OpenKM 7.1 comes with two user interfaces, called "classic" and "kcenter". Although both functionally are very similar, the layout and the way they are used may have significant differences. This page is based in the "classic" user interface. If you are using the "kcenter" user interface and have any doubts to access any of these features, please create a ticket in the support website.
The External Tab Mail feature helps you to show a tab content in the properties tab based on external URL request when a node mail is selected.
This option is only available if you have enabled the External tab mail feature.
There are several parameters passed as request parameter in URL request:
- The authentication token ( encrypted )
- The mail uuid
- The userId

Each row is a couple of values with a tab content declaration, the format is: name;url name1;http://localhost:8180/openkm/test.jsp |

To make accessible to all the users the values of the parameter "extension.external.tab.mail", must be added the value "extension.external.tab.mail" in the current list. If you forget to add the property name, only administrator users will be able to get the value so some extensions may produce errors for regular users. |
