How to reduce below worklight application url to shorter form?
For ex: My application url is //hostname:ipaddress/projectName/apps/services/preview/projectNameApp/common/0/default/projectNameApp.html"
I want to set up a url which can be accessible easily over the internet. what are the settings required to get shorter url in worklight project
For ex
//hostname:portno/context path/appIndexPage.html
instead of
//hostname:ipaddress/projectName/apps/services/preview/projectNameApp/common/0/default/projectNameApp.html"
Thanks.
See the answers here and the getting started module here.
This is not the URL of your all. This is the URL of the app PREVIEW. Moreover, this is preview of common environment. If you're targeting mobile/desktop web environment - add it to your project and then use WL console to generate short link. - Anton
If you are aiming to use the Mobile Web environment, meaning you take the public URL of the app from Worklight Console and place it in your mobile web site for users to access, there is the option to use bit.ly to shorten the URL; you will first need to create an account at http://bit.ly. - Idan Adar

I'm trying to authenticate a desktop application with OAuth. I already asked a question, but I deleted it as I discovered that the method was obsolete (integrated web view).
The idea is to open the browser and then have the page call back my application with a custom:// URI scheme.
Of course it doesn't work, Google asks that the scheme contains a dot (like com.org.myapp), but the native app can only have a fmp:// uri scheme, which I can't change.
The documentation doesn't mention anything, and I can't create a local temporary server.
1- Can I use the fmp:// scheme as a callback in any way?
2- If not, is it possible to redirect the call to another centralised web server? Everything I try generates a 400 error on the google page, saying "redirect_uri_mismatch" or similar stuff.
As stated in the comments above, the only solution is to create an intermediate web server that serves a page which then opens the URL. OR creates a record in the database with the authentication code.
How to launch a specific page of hybrid worklight application on clicking a link in email?
I did not go through all the steps involved, but yes, you can do this.
Step 1
Create a Worklight application using, for example, jQuery Mobile to handle the multiple pages
Step 2
If the app is intended for Android, you will need to modify the AndroidManifest.xml file with an intent filter in order to associate the app with an action and a custom URL scheme
You can read more about this by googling for "opening android application using a custom URL scheme", for example
If the app is intended for iOS, you will need to modify the <app-name->info.plist file with a custom URL scheme
You can probably follow this guide: http://iosdevelopertips.com/cocoa/launching-your-own-application-via-a-custom-url-scheme.html
Step 3
Once you get the app to open from an external link, you need to handle the parameters. You'll want this since you want to open a specific page. This is also mentioned for iOS in the above link, and you'll need to further google this for Android
Step 4
Once you've obtained the parameter, you can use the Send Action to JavaScript from Native API for iOS and Andriod in Worklight in order to pass a command to JavaScript, telling the web code to do some changePage function that will load the specific page
I'm using SBT SDK on a XPage.
After mastering a few traps at the beginning it works fine.
Livenames are properly displayed.
But now a got another problem.
If you click on a available person, a context menu is displayed, where you can choose 'CHAT' or 'VCARD'.
If I click on CHAT a URL like this ist called:
http://localhost:59449/stwebapi/loggedin?jsonp=stproxy.connect.callback.setAvailable&wait=true&time=1407834968761&fqdn=sametime.lotus.com
I found out that you have to install Sametime Connect Client locally at every computer, because it is providing a small webserver at port 59449.
That's impossible because I want to use Sametime on a public website.
I'm pretty sure that there is another way.
Somebody an idea?
thanks

#user2776693 - There are two ways:
1 - using the Sametime Local Web API
The local web api uses a configurable port (the default is mentioned above), to communicate back and forth from a web site which embeds or calls the configurable port using jsonp, meaning the javascript of the site wraps the sametime calls.
2 - using the Sametime Web Chat/Web Proxy
It means that the Sametime Web Chat is embedded as JavaScript on the page, and loaded using the appropriate JS libraries, and can have some pretty advanced features. There is a demo site off of greenhouse.lotus.com, and you can sign up for an account on that site.
you can download the sdk, and find many examples of using the local web api and web chat.

I have build a simple web app using Worklight.
My apps Preview URL is :
//local.loc:9080/Mobile/apps/services/preview/MobileAPP/common/0/default/MobileAPP.html
Shortend URL (with bit.ly credentials) is: http://bit.ly/153qbvr
Here the domain is completely different (bit.ly).
But actually I am looking for URL like : http://local.loc:9080/Mobile/MobileAPP.html.
Are there any ways to get a URL for public access like:
//:/application-name/launch_App_.html
if not, let me know ways to reduce the URL - if any.
The first URL you've mentioned is internal. It is meant for preview (development time mostly). Why would you be interested in shortening it? What is the value of doing so for you?
Also note that the shortened URL provided by bit.ly when using this service via Worklight - IS NOT the same URL as the first one (preview), it is meant for the Mobile Web environment, meaning for users who use their mobile browser app to access your app.
In short (no pun intended...), no, there is no way to do what you are asking for via Worklight - you cannot tweak the URL.
Let me re-iterate, the preview URL (the one mentioned in your question and that you want to shorten) is for the administrator or developer. It is NOT MEANT TO BE PUBLICALLY USED in any capacity, shape, form.
If you want to provide a web-public link to your app, add the Desktop Browser environment to your application. This environment is meant to access the app from a regular Desktop (PC/Mac) browser app. Note that even in this case, you cannot shorten the URL via a tweak in Worklight.
What you can do, is install some custom shortening service of your own in your company's servers and create your own custom URL that will look the way you want it to.
My iPad app is developed by third party and it is calling my restful services for registration and login.
Now I want to launch iPad app from XCode project which is pointing to old service URLs and redirect service calls to invoke new service URLs without modifying the code.
Ex: login request coming to http://xx.com/login and redirect to http://xx.com/services/login by interpreting some tool.
Please advice me or let me know if there is any better approach.
http://www.charlesproxy.com/ is what you want. This lets you breakpoint, forward, and do any kind of crazy stuff with your requests. Install on your mac, put it in the same wifi as your phone, and use your mac's ip as proxy.
I used MapRemote to redirect the url in Charles.
Had set Map from and Map to columns.
