auto login desktop client and select specific layout

Answered

I want to combine two options from the URL schema and the CLI parameters. 

Currently i'm using this command to automatically open a specific layout on a specific monitor: START "" "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Network Optix\Nx Witness" --screen=0 --no-single-application --layout-name=layout1

But this sometimes causes issues because the autologin option doesn't work. So I want to use this option to make it automatically login:
start "" "nx-vms://nxvms.com/client/systemid/view?auth=token

But when using the url schema i can't select a specific monitor and layout anymore.

Is there an option to make something like this work:
start "" "nx-vms://nxvms.com/client/systemid/view?auth=token&layout=layout1&=screen=0

I would use this option but I don't want to use digest authentication:
"HD Witness.exe" --auth=http://admin:1234@192.168.1.200:7001 --layout-name="Some layout name"

    Hi Tbrugmans,

    Thanks for your question, you can use resource={cameraId1}:{cameraId2}…{cameraId}. Open several provided cameras on a given time (Desktop Client only): resources=<id1>:<id2>:<id3>... & timestamp=<ms>

    Action Parameters

    • resources - list of resource identifiers joined by the colon. Specifies resource which we want to be opened. All values should be identifiers for cameras. 

    e.g. nx-vms://10.0.3.14:7001?auth=YWRtaW46cXdlYXNkMTIz&resources=ed93120e-0f50-3cdf-39c8-dd52a640688c:04762367-751f-2727-25ca-9ae0dc6727de

     

    For screen, unfortunately, at the moment it is not supported.

    Thanks.

    Hi Ichiro,

    Thank you for the tip. I also tried that but wasn't able to set the cell spacing to none automatically this way. Is there a way to always set the cell spacing to none maybe?

    Hi Tbrugmans

    That cell spacing is a local settings of the desktop client, unfortunately it is not possible to use CLI or parameters to feed in.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Ichiro,

    Can I change the default setting somewhere? I know I can change it in a layout but I couldn't figure out how to set the client to always use no cell spacing.
