Web Client URL Tricks

Revision as of 18:52, 1 September 2010 by Thom (talk | contribs) (added header & examples)

The Zimbra Web Client has several URL params that will allow for different integration and easier debugging.

The following commands can be combined or used as separate flags.

i.e., ?debug=3&mode=mjsf&gzip=false

debug=

 debug=3
      This will popup a debug window in full debug.  For less verbose output try debug=2 or debug=1 http://<host>:<port>/zimbra/?debug=1

Example: https://server.example.com/?debug=3

Example: https://server.example.com/?debug=2

Example: https://server.example.com/?debug=1

mode=

 mode=mjsf (Multiple JavaScript Files) 
      This will force the client to load each JavaScript file as a separate file.  Much, much slower to load but perfect for debugging.

Example: https://server.example.com/?mode=mjsf

gzip=

 gzip=false
      This will disable gzip'ed JavaScript and CSS files.  certain versions of IE and some old web proxies that don't support HTTP 1.1 can have problems.

Example: https://server.example.com/?gzip=false

app=

 app=calendar
      This will force the app to open with calendar as the default view.  app=contacts will also work.

Example: https://server.example.com/?app=calendar

Example: https://server.example.com/?app=contacts

view=

 view=compose&to=[email]
      Pasing in these parameters will begin a new message addressed to [email].

Example: https://server.example.com/?view=compose&to=user@domain.com

dev=1

 dev=1
      You can append &dev=1 which forces the Zimlet source files to load separately. But while this eliminates the modular loading, caching, and also the minimization, it does change the overall behavior.

Example: https://server.example.com/?dev=1

Version Identification
