Creating links to start the HCL Domino Workspace Mail mobile app

Create links that a user can click to start the HCL Domino Workspace Mail mobile app from a web page or email.

Overview

The HCL Domino Workspace Mail app for iOS and Android can be started using the URL scheme ibmverse:// with identifier com.ibm.lotus.traveler. For example, a Traveler administrator can build a web page that includes the link ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler to start Mail, or build a custom internal app that uses the mailto parameter to start Mail with a pre-addressed mail message to send to the internal help desk.

Note: HCL Domino Workspace Mail app for iOS also supports the URL scheme hclverse://.

Starting the Mail app in the mail, calendar, actions, or people view

To start the HCL Domino Workspace Mail app in the mail, calendar, actions, or people view, use the corresponding URL to provide a link:

  • ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/mail
  • ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/calendar
  • ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/actions
  • ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/people

Clicking the link starts the Mail app and opens it to the specified view (mail, calendar, actions or people). The first time the app starts, the user see the account configuration screen and can enter a user ID and password to log into Mail.

Starting the Mail app in the compose view

To start the HCL Domino Workspace Mail app in the compose mail view, use the following URL:

ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/mailto?
    to=*toEmailOne*,*toEmailTwo*
    &cc=*ccEmailOne*,*ccEmailTwo*
    &bcc=*bccEmailOne*,*bccEmailTwo*
    &subject=*email\_subject*
    &body=*email\_body*

All the mailto parameters are optional. For example, to make it easy for a user to compose an email to the internal party organizers when a user has a question about the company party, you could use only the following parameters:

ibmverse://com.ibm.lotus.traveler/mailto?
    to=partyteam@mycompany.com
    &subject=Holiday%20Party

The following example shows all of the parameters that Mail supports:

to=joe@mycompany.com
    &cc=tim@anothercompany.com,bob@thirdcompany.com
    &bcc=john@mycompany.com,mary@example.com
    &subject=Mail%20Subject
    &body=Mail%20Body
