Context Access Control URLs

Context Access Control provides the ability to restrict data to only the contexts that the user is interested in. The Dashboard user can provide the list of contexts that are of interest in the Dashboard URL. A single context or a list of contexts can be specified by adding an assets parameter, for example:

• Single context: http://myMachine:16000/?assets=ABC#/.

• Multiple contexts (separated by a vertical bar |): http://myMachine:16000/?assets=ABC|XYZ#/.

• Search

  When the user performs a search, then the results are restricted to the specified contexts.

• Browse

  Browse shows the root items that satisfy the specified contexts defined in the URL. This is true if the Root Item Type (see Settings > Role > Browse > Root Items) is, for example, a PLANT or a 3D Model.

• Query Forms

  Query Forms only display results that satisfy the specified contexts defined in the URL.

• Export

  Export only exports items that satisfy the specified contexts defined in the URL.

• Model Composition

  Model Composition only lists 3D Models that satisfy the specified contexts defined in the URL.
