Hello,
If I wanted to link directly to a page within HR Talent from an outside website, how can I obtain that direct link? Say you wanted to directly link to the latest pay check in My PayChecks from an outside website.
Thank you,
Chris
Try using CTRL+SHIFT+Left-Click on the form you want to link to. It should open a component information box. There's usually an "open" link on that control. If you click "open" then it will open a new tab with a link to the form/data.
There will likely be application data in the link URL (i,e. HR Org, Employee Number)
hcm-tenant-name.inforcloudsuite.com/.../Employee(7005,22%29.XiEmployeePayForm
CommonSpirit has been interested in similar functionality. We have generated quite a few links directly to HR Talent...the key here is directly to HR Talent. The links do not open in Mingle.
We have found it impossible to link directly to a tab on a form. For example, in XiEmployeePersonalForm, we really want to produce a link that lands the user on the Personal tab to update their contact information. We have learned it's only possible to link to the Form and not a specific tab on the form. Here is an example where we want to link, but we can only link to Summary.
Our desire is to ensure links open in Mingle rather than directly in HR Talent. While the SSO configuration is honored, the ease of use that comes with Mingle homepages/apps is lost with these direct links. In working with our CSM, we have identified that we need to enable some configurations within our SSO provider to address this difficulty (something dealing with pass through parameters). Has anyone else encountered a similar issue and been able to solve for it?
You should simply be able to copy the URL in the browser which is a Ming.le URL plus the specific screen you are on. Do you find if you copy that and paste into a new tab that it's not the same screen?
And yes, CTRL+SHIFT+Left-Click will give you the URL to the "page" you are on. Be careful where you are clicking though, you want the top-most parent area of the page. This URL is not the In Ming.le URL however.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Do you have any resources available on the anatomy of a mingle URL? We want to include the IDP parameter in the URL. This doesn't seem to be part of the URL that I copied. Our goal is to ensure our users do not need to select their IDP as most should be using our organization's IDP rather than Cloud Identities. I'm interested in understanding more about the optional and required parameters.
There's a page in the User Management in Mingle that goes through the various Ming.le urls available. I think you can use that to force anyone to use a specific authentication method rather than letting them choose and then give people using cloud identities a specific url to use. I haven't tried it though, just something I saw.User Management -> Security Administration -> Authentication URL Options
(the blurred piece is the tenant)
Shannon! Good to see you here - Chris from UCHealth Thanks for the replies!!
If the resource is a page you can link directly to a page tab (e.g. page panel) with the "pagepanel" query string parameter.
For example, "https://<LMHOST>/<DATAAREA>/<ROLE>/page/APManagerInvoicesPage?pagepanel=APManagerInvoicesPage.Search" will take you directly to the Search tab on the Manage Invoices page.However, I think you are correct about forms. I don't see any "formpanel" query string param. It appears the form tab selected on a composite form is tied to the "selectedPanelIndex" value in the browser session storage and I don't see a way to explicitly set that with query string params.
@Dr. Awesome, can you point me toward any documentation to help me understand the components of a mingle URL? Including any that can be used?
Here is what I have gathered so far:
https://mingle-portal.inforcloudsuite.com/[tenant]/[guid]?[parameters]
Where does the guid come from? Is it tenant wide or user specific?
Known Parameters include:favoriteContextLogicalIDidentity
What other parameters can be used?
Here is what I got from the Ming.le team:
The GUID is nothing but the Application Site guid which uniquely identifies an application.
For the parameters, these are the only parameters supported.
favoriteContext – For Bookmarks LogicalID – For Drillbacks identity – For initial login redirect.
What exactly are you trying to solve again? Is it have a direct link into Ming.le portal and it showing a specific application screen?
Yes, this is exactly what we are trying to do.
Today, all URLs generated via HR Talent processes open directly in HR Talent. We are trying to drive our users through Mingle (to leverage Homepages and other mingle features). Where possible, we plan to modify the email to include a Mingle-enabled URL.
