You can launch the Event Browser using a URL link. By doing this, an operator of an external application with a graphical user interface can drill down into the OMi UI. For example, it is possible to have a portal application, where operators can launch the Event Browser and the Event Details in a browser within their application.
To perform a URL launch of the Event Browser, you can either use the default URL, or specify additional parameters. The optional parameters you specify in the URL enable you to define how you want the Event Browser to appear and behave.

Default URL launch
When you use the default URL launch, the Event Browser opens with default OMi UI settings.
Note In the Event Browser launched with the default URL, any changes you make (for instance, visible columns and columns widths) are not automatically saved.
To launch the Event Browser with default UI settings, enter the URL as follows:
https://<hostname:port>/opr-console/opr-evt-browser
Note You must specify the port number if the port you are using is not the default HTTP port (80). If you are using the default port, you need not specify the port number.
Specify optional parameters
You can specify additional parameters to define what you want to display in the Event Browser.
The available parameters, together with their possible values, are given in Parameters for the URL Launch of the Event Browser.
You specify additional parameters for the URL launch in the following way:
https://<hostname:port>/opr-console/opr-evt-browser?<set_parameters_here>
Note You must specify the port number if the port you are using is not the default HTTP port (80). If you are using the default port, you need not specify the port number.
Note You place the character “?” in front of the first argument of the URL, and thereafter separate each argument by the “&” character.
Here is an example of a URL launch with optional parameters:
https://my.example.com:8080/opr-console/opr-evt-browser?sortField=severity&sortOrder=desc&filter_severities=critical,major,minor
