Deep Linking - Share with Formant users
You can share specific time slots with users who already have Formant login using deep links. Deep Linking allows a user to craft a URL that links to a dynamically-specified channel view.
This is useful for manually or programmatically linking to a view of your organization’s data without creating a channel beforehand.
Base URL
https://app.formant.io/channel
With no parameters present, the app will automatically redirect to the "all" channel.
The following parameters are supported:
Query String Parameters
| Parameter | Required? | Description |
|---|---|---|
| channelName | No | Links to a channel by name (default is #all) |
| agentId | No | Adds an agent ID to the channel filter |
| agentId/ deviceId/ deviceName | No | Load the named device channel, or add this parameter to the ad-hoc channel filter |
| streamType | No | Adds a stream type to the channel filter |
| streamName | No | Adds a stream name to the channel filter |
| tags[key] | No | Adds a tag key/value pair to the channel filter |
| time | Yes, if time zone is provided | Sets the timeline to the specified time. Represented as an ISO-8601 timestamp without time zone. May be a prefix such as 2019-03 or 2019-03-09T15. |
| timeZone | Yes, if time is provided | An IANA/Olson timezone identifier, such as US/Pacific |
| interval | No | Specifies the timeline’s resolution as minute, hour, day, or month |
Query string parameters must be URL encoded.
If no query string parameters are provided, the base URL will link to the #all channel in live mode.
