Forms

"Forms" is a submodule within the "DataCockpit" module that allows you to create HTML forms for data display and input based on profiles. A license is required for this add-on module .

Users


Forms (resp. DataCockpit) has a default user "admin" with password "admin". Please change the password or create a new DataCockpit user.

To see forms, the DataCockpit user right "May see forms" must be set.

Login with token


http(s)://<IP_or_URL_of_Integration_Server_or_DMZ>/webmonitor/Interceptor?user=<user>&password=<password>&language=de


In response, you will receive a token string of the following type.

1661755355467005731743:33703602516:533663474105103177626

In a further call, which uses the token string, the actual login takes place.


http(s)://<IP_or_URL_of_Integration_Server_or_DMZ>/DataCockpit/forms?token=1661755355467005731743:33703602516:533663474105103177626&user=<user>


So for example: http://localhost/DataCockpit/forms?token=1661755355467005731743:33703602516:533663474105103177626&user=myuser

Important note: Please note that some characters are reserved in a URL. One solution would be not to use these characters in the user or password. However, special characters do of course have their purpose in passwords for security. Alternatively, you can then URL-encode your password before entering it in the URL. See function URL-encode(), for example.
