Filter parameters for the alert list are ignored when they are part of the redirect in a Windows Single Sign-On (SSO) URL.
For example, a user's To Do list has 2 maps - MapA and MapB. The user accesses Metastorm BPM using the normal SSO URL - e.g. http://WebServer/MetastormSSO/esso.asp?service=Metastorm BPM Server. The To Do list is accessed, the user drills down to MapB (the To Do list is filtered to MapB), and the browser is closed.
Next, the user attempts to access MapA on their To Do list using this URL: http://WebServer/MetastormSSO/eexternalform.asp?service=Metastorm BPM Server&redirect=http://WebServer/Metastorm/eList.ashx?Type=ToDo&Client=External&Map=MapA&Sort=eStageName&Order=Asc&ResetFilter=Yes.
However, the browser opens and MapB is selected instead of MapA. If the Watch list had been the list type in the URL, the browser would open to the user's Watch list, but any other filters in the redirect URL would be ignored. The Watch list would be displayed using the filters applied during the user's last regular session.
Replace & with %2526 in the redirect URL. The example above should be:
http://WebServer/MetastormSSO/eexternalform.asp?service=Metastorm BPM Server&redirect=http://WebServer/Metastorm/eList.ashx?Type=ToDo%26Client=External%26Map=MapA%26Sort=eStageName%26Order=Asc%26ResetFilter=Yes.
