If you want to view AR data from another web application, have you considered the use of Web Services for the same? It may be a cleaner solution where you would be able to view the Remedy data from within your 'other' web application...
I have never used option 3 but option 1 and 2 will take you to the default login page.. after which option 1 will open the form you specified while option 2 will open the form and display the record identified by the Request ID value contained in the eid parameter of the URL..

What I meant by "outside of ARS" is that it's a link from another web application running on a different server, so the ARS link should be: 1. Accessible from any browser (and not just redirects within ARS application) 2. Support redirect to login page if not authenticated yet in this browser session, and back to the requested request. Which of the three options were you referring to as working as I expect? (1) http://<web_server>/arsys/form/... Or (2) http://<mid_tier_server>/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?server=<server_name>& form=<form_name>&eid=<request_id> Or (3) http://<mid_tier_server>/arsys/shared/login.jsp?server=<server_name>&goto=<U RL> I think you were referring to (1). So do you know what (2) and (3) are good for?

And yes it will redirect you in that case to the login page and after logging in take you directly to that request..

Will this " http://<web_server>/arsys/form/..." URL work from outside ARS? Including redirection to login page if user is not logged in? I saw that "ViewFormServlet" can be used as well: "http://<mid_tier_server>/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?server=<server_n ame>&form=<form_name>&eid=<request_id>" How is it different? And I also found that to redirect user to a login page and then the specified request, the URL "http://<mid_tier_server>/arsys/shared/login.jsp?server=<server_name>&goto=< URL>" can be used. So I'm very confused now. Has anyone tried this specific scenario (link from outside ARS, with login page redirect if not logged in) and knows for certain the URL that'll work?

If you have a non default context path like Frank, then replace that with whatever you have..
