l "Static Resources", as set in the preferences, are accessed using the resource path, by
default something like http://servername:8080/_iRes/images/image.jpg. (For guidance on
setting the preferences, search for 'HTTP Server Input 2' in the PlanetPress Workflow
help files on: OL Help).
l Resources can also be served by processes: http://servername:8080/my_
process?filename=image.jpg (assuming "my_process" is the action in the HTTP Server
Input).
Runtime parameters
Runtime parameters can pass values from an automation tool - PlanetPress Workflow, usually
- to a template, data mapping configuration or Job Creation Preset. The actual values of the
parameters may be different from one time that a process runs to the next, which means the
output could be different even when the same template, data mapping configuration and/or Job
Creation Presets are used.
Defining runtime parameters for a template
Runtime parameters in a template must be defined on the Parameters pane. This can be found
next to the Data Model pane. If it isn't visible, use the menu: Window > Show View >
Parameters to make it visible.
Note
The variable that contains the value of a runtime parameter must be selected in
PlanetPress Workflow, in the Runtime Parameters section of the OL Connect task that
uses the template: the All In One, Create Print Content, Create Email Content, Create
Web Content, or Create Preview PDF task. For more information see "OL Connect tasks"
on page185.
To add a parameter, start by opening the template to which the parameter should be added.
Make sure the template is visible in the workspace; then open the Parameters pane.
Note
Runtime parameters are always added to the file currently visible in the workspace.
To add a single parameter:
