Direct Links to Filters or Search Results

  • Updated

With direct links users can navigate to a module directly without having to use the portal navigation. Direct links can also be used to redirect users to the Asset Bank with certain filters applied. This way, users will get to see the right selection of assets right away.

Direct links can be implemented in the main menu as well as on the homepage of your portal. For example, behind navigation tiles, quick links and other elements available on the homepage.

Find out below what types of direct links are available and start creating your own direct links.

Note

Make sure that you replace the variables below with the names and values that apply to your portal setup.

Direct links to Bynder modules

Use the quick links below to access one of the Bynder modules directly without having to use the menu or navigation buttons.

Metaproperty views

Use the two views below to create an overview page for a metaproperty. This will give your users a more visual way to browse through the metaproperty.

Metaproperty tile view (with filter)

This view categorizes all metaproperty options of the metaproperty in a separate tile and is very similar to the view mentioned above. The biggest difference is that the moment you click a metaproperty option it will be set as a filter, which will remain applied until you manually clear the filter.

Quicklinks for Brand Guidelines

Follow the steps below to create direct links to specific guides in Brand Guidelines

  1. Go to Brand Guidelines and click the guide for which you want to create a direct link.

  2. In order to create a direct link we first need to determine which version of Brand Guidelines you're using. Take a look at the URL structure in the address bar of your browser

    • Brand Guidelines 1.0

      If the URL in your address bar contains Styleguide and looks like the URL below you're on Brand Guidelines 1.0

      https://YourPortalURL.com/Styleguide/guide_name/#page/XXXXXXX-XXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX

    • Brand Guidelines 2.0

      If the URL in your address bar contains guidelines and looks like the URL below you're on Brand Guidelines 2.0.

      https://YourPortalURL.com/guidelines/#/guide/XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-X/page/XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXX

  3. Select your version of Brand Guidelines below to create a direct link to a guide.

Brand Guidelines 1.0

  1. In the address bar of your browser you will see a URL that looks like the URL below

    https://YourPortalURL.com/Styleguide/guide_name/#page/XXXXXXX-XXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX

    In our example the guide is called typography and our URL looks like this

    https://YourPortalURL.com/Styleguide/typography/#page/XXXXXXX-XXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX

  2. Replace the guide_name value with the name of your guide and remove the remaining part of the URL. The URL will then look like:

    https://YourPortalURL.com/Styleguide/guide_name/

    In our example the URL will look like the example below:

    https://YourPortalURL.com/Styleguide/typography/

Brand Guidelines 2.0

  1. In the address bar of your browser you will see a URL that looks like the URL below

    https://YourPortalURL.com/guidelines/#/guide/XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX/page/XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXX

  2. Replace the first XXX value with the ID of your guide and remove the remaining part of the URL. The URL will then look like:

    https://YourPortalUR/guidelines/#/guide/XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXX/

    In our example the URL will look like the example below:

    https://YourPortalURL.com/guidelines/#/guide/3d669ce8-0517-1111-bf3c-c6a06b4d2194/
