Title: Create URL to activity diagram
Post by: reddwarfcrew on January 19, 2024, 05:53:52 am

Hi, I want to able to put hyperlinks in other applications to take me directly to an activity diagram.

I know I can create public url using the GUI, but is there a way to generate the URLs in bulk.  Ideally I should be able to take the activity UID and just wrap it around a generic url but I'm told that isn't how sparx works.

Thanks

This feature is also on my wish list but currently there is nothing from Sparx.
Long time ago Canonic started to work on an EA protocol handler but they didn't finish it (if I remember correctly).
Just out of curiosity I grabbed their sources and built it.
It seemed to work for me but for sure I won't consider it as "ready for release".

What exactly is your goal?
Do you want a hyperlink open
- EA with the correct diagram
- a webpage with the published html model
- a webpage from WebEA?

For the first one you'll need the protocol handler Michael is talking about.
The other two can be done based on the diagram guid.
