Create message via shortcut

Create templates in the IBI-aws Admin

In order to be able to create a message by clicking on a shortcut, a corresponding template is required in the IBI-aws Admin.

Create CMD script

To be able to create and resolve the message with one click each, a shortcut is needed for each of these two actions.

In order to be able to specify the required arguments for calling the command line interface, a CMD script is created first.

CMD script

@ECHO OFF

set messageGroupId=<Message group ID>
set templateId=<Template ID>
set externalId=<Custom ID to resolve the message later>
set path=<Path to the IBI-aws Admin>
set shouldResolve="%1"
if %shouldResolve% == "0" (
start "" "%path%" /action "createifnotexisting" /mode "silent" /remarkGroupId "%messageGroupId%" /templateId "%templateId%" /startTime "{Now-1}" /externalId "%externalId%" /publish "true" /waitIfBlocked
) else %shouldResolve% == "1" (
start "" "%path%" /action "resolve" /mode "silent" /remarkGroupId "%messageGroupId%" /externalId "%externalId%" /publish "true" /waitIfBlocked
)

Some data have to be adjusted in the process:

• <Message group ID>

• <Template ID>

• <Custom ID to resolve the message later>

• <Path to the IBI-aws Admin>

If these values are replaced, this part should look something like this:

Specifying values in the CMD script

@ECHO OFF

set messageGroupId=d0d999cb-8aa9-4b40-ab12-6fd0c31cf6c6
set templateId=RT-123456
set externalId=cli-sample--external-id
set path=%~dp0\Admin\IBI.aws.Admin.exe
[...]

Create shortcut

The shortcuts should each call the CMD script.

Create

<Path to the CMD script> 0

Resolve

<Path to the CMD script> 1

Test shortcuts

By double-clicking on the start shortcut, the appropriate message should be displayed after the set synchronization interval.

By double-clicking on the resolve shortcut, a corresponding resolve message should be displayed.

Deploy shortcuts

In order for the shortcuts to be used, they may still have to be made available. This can be done, for example, on a share or via software distribution to authorized computers.
