When a user signs out of a view in Dashboard, the user is redirected to the Sign In page by default. The Sign Out window can be customized to direct users to another page within Dashboard or a web page outside of Dashboard. For example, when a user clicks the Sign Out link in the Dashboard banner, you can have your company web site open. This functionality can be set for specific views using the View Builder or set globally for all views by editing a parameter in the WebFOCUS Administration Console. Sign out configurations on a per view basis take precedence over global sign out configurations.
Administrators and Group Administrators have the ability to redirect users of a specific public or group view to a different URL upon sign out.
http://hostname[:port]/ibi_apps/signin.jsp
This is based on the global Sign Out Redirect URL setting in the WebFOCUS Administration Console.
To redirect a user to the Group View Sign In page for the aa_gbv group view, select the context-redirect option and set the Redirect URL field to:
/bid/aa_gbv
http://www.informationbuilders.com
If the Redirect URL field is left blank, the user is redirected to the Sign In page upon sign out by default.
The Administration Console opens.
The Application Settings - Security pane opens, as shown in the following image.
For example:
To redirect a user to the Group View Sign In page for the aa_gbv group view, input the relative URL field below:
/bid/aa_gbv
To redirect users to a fully qualified URL outside the application, such as the IBI web site, input the fully qualified URL below:
http://www.informationbuilders.com
By default, all users are redirected to the WebFOCUS Sign In page upon sign out.
Note: The IBI_Signout_Redirect_URL is a global parameter that applies to all WebFOCUS product components.
