Creating a URL for an iNotes portal

You can provide a Web portal that shows one or several views of IBM® iNotes®.

About this task

A portal is a Web site that aggregates information from a variety of sources onto one page. You can provide a Web portal showing only one view of iNotes, or one showing several views. iNotes supports special URLs that allow a particular functional area, such as calendar, to be displayed within an IFRAME, or a full browser window. This view takes up very little screen space and limits access to other functional areas.

An individual iNotes portal view is limited to one of these functional areas:

  • Inbox
  • Calendar
  • To Do List
  • Notebook
  • Contact List

The URL syntax for an iNotes portal showing just the mail Inbox is, for example:

.../username.nsf/inotes/mail/?OpenDocument&ui=portal

To place all of iNotes within a portal page, use the normal iNotes URL without the &ui=portal parameter.

Note: Use the notes.ini file setting iNotes_WA_PortalOffline to specify offline and local archive options in a portal.
