A Proficy Portal display via the symbol editor has the capability of defining symbol names for component and/or data source parameters and properties. These symbol names can be passed on the URL line to specify startup values for the display symbol value. These parameters apply only when starting in Client Display mode. You will always get the login screen first unless URL line parameters for username and password are present.
Any valid Proficy Portal parameter name or property name defined by the symbol editor.
To pass along values for the Sym1 and Sym2 symbols in a display, the following URL would be used:
http://localhost/ProficyPortal/default.asp?Sym1=Sales&Sym2=November
This would replace the values in the display's associated symbol files with the values supplied in the URL parameters.
