Custom URI syntax | HCL Digital Experience
Understand the syntax for creating a custom URI to access a piece of content.
POC URI Syntax
Construct a POC URI to address Connections content. The syntax has this
form:
connections:atom_uri&commID=community_id&service=service_name&type=content_typeNote: commID,
service, and type must be specified as parameters.
Parameter names are case sensitive.
Parameters
- connections
- connections is the scheme that identifies the type of content the URI is locating.
- atom_uri
- The path portion of the URI used to fetch the atom document for the content.
- commID
- (optional) Community ID. Needs to be specified if the content is community-based.
- service
- Identifies the Connections service.
- type
- Identifies the content type. For example, an activity or a wiki page.

POC Servlet
The piece of content (POC) servlet checks for authentication. The /poc mapping does not require
authentication but recognizes if valid authentication or single sign on information is present. If
that case, the resolver framework will redirect to /myportal; otherwise, it redirects to /portal. In
many usage scenarios it is appropriate to address the /poc mapping, because it detects potential
authentication information automatically. In any case, access control to the actual page and
portlets to which the POC URI resolves is enforced by the portal. The POC servlet default path is
http://server:port/wps/poc?uri= Use the POC Servlet with the POC URI to access content as follows: POC URI:http://server:port/wps/poc?uri=connections:atom_uri&commID=community_id&service=service_name&type=content_type
