External Form URI

This parameter is used to specify a URI that points to an external forms package that is used to display forms in the iProcess Workspace (Browser). This parameter is used with the following external forms packages:

•

TIBCO BusinessWorks™ iProcess Forms Plug-in - This plug-in allows you to create a form using TIBCO BusinessWorks™ FormBuilder, then associate that form with a step in a TIBCO iProcess Engine procedure. For information about this plug-in, see the TIBCO BusinessWorks iProcess Forms Plug-in User’s Guide.

•

ASP Forms - These forms can be created in a .NET project, then used in a TIBCO iProcess Engine procedure. For information about using these types of forms, see ASP Forms.

•

JSP Forms - These forms can be created in a Java development environment, then used in a TIBCO iProcess Engine procedure. For information about using these types of forms, see JSP Forms.

To specify the external form URI setting:

1.

Locate the <ExternalFormURI> element in the apConfig.xml file:

   <ExternalFormURI>http://localhost:8080/</ExternalFormURI>

2.

Replace “localhost” with the name of the computer on which the Formflow process, ASP form, or JSP form is deployed, and replace “8080” with the port number used by the Web Application Server that is hosting your external form. For example:

   <ExternalFormURI>http://whisler:90/</ExternalFormURI>

Note that the final slash following the port number is required.
