What are SmartLinks, and how do they work?

 Print This

SmartLinks is a feature in Accompa that helps you to integrate Accompa to third-party software tools as well as your in-house applications.

SmartLinks are just like hyperlinks, with one important difference: They're dynamically generated based on the data you're looking at.

For example, you can create a SmartLink for your Requirement Details page by entering the following value into the "Destination URL" field of "Add SmartLink" page:

  • http://www.YourBugTracker.com/bugs?requirementID=N

After you create this SmartLink - whenever you visit the Requirement Details page of a requirement, "N" in the SmartLink example shown above will be dynamically replaced by the ID of the requirement you're viewing. You can use this SmartLink to view a list of all the bugs in your bugtracker related to the requirement you're viewing.

You can dynamically include any data related to your requirements, features, or use cases within your SmartLinks. You can also include data related to the currently logged-in user within your SmartLinks.

You can setup SmartLinks to appear in any of the following pages: Requirement Details Page, Feature Details Page, Use Case Details Page.
