Tips on using URLs

Question

Some users like to fine-tune their bookmarks - we now support some parameter-based shorcuts. Here’s the URL for the Mainframe Tag Group:https://community.emc.com/community/support/host_systems?view=all&tagSet=1102 This can be done a bit more naturally with the tag itself:https://community.emc.com/community/support/host_systems?view=tags&tags=mainframe Incidentally, the view parameter can also be set to discussions and documents:https://community.emc.com/community/support/host_systems?view=discussions&tags=mainframe Thanks, Erich

One more tip - you can force the Powerlink authentication within the URL.

ECN keeps your session active for longer than we did before, but if you have a direct bookmark, and the session has timed out, you will land on our main landing page instead of your desired destination.

Prefix every bookmark with this, and you will be automatically Powerlink-authenticated on the way in:

http://powerlink.emc.com/km/integration/ifi/IfiController.jpf?initiatingURL=

For example:

http://powerlink.emc.com/km/integration/ifi/IfiController.jpf?initiatingURL=https://community.emc.com/community/support/host_systems?view=all&tagSet=1102
