Modifying the UPK Player Package Link

As part of the embedded Help functionality, you can include links to Oracle UPK modules and topics.

To modify the UPK player package link:

1. Contact your UPK system administrator to obtain the player package link (URL). It should look similar to this:

   http://upkservername/upk/content_subject/toc.html

2. Change the file name toc.html to kp.html so that the URL looks similar to this:

   http://upkservername/upk/content_subject/kp.html

   The kp.html file lists your UPK modules and topics. Pointing directly to the kp.html file, which is located in the player package folder, enables you to manually link to a specific mode for a topic.

3. Paste the link into your browser to access the file.

4. Find the topic that you want to use in embedded help, and then right-click the Concept or Do It link associated with the topic.

   If you are creating task oriented related content, right-click the Do It link, otherwise click the Concept link.

5. From the pop-up menu, select Copy Shortcut or Copy Link Location. You will need the URL in the next topic, Adding UPK-Based URLs to the Application.

   As an alternative, select Properties and then copy the URL that you see on the dialog box.

   • For conceptual information, the URL should look similar to this:

     http://upkserver/upk/hcmam91/tpc/1d1a9fb4-aa18-407a-b50c-f5e0e65e4bb8/index.html

   • For task oriented information, the URL should look similar to this:

     http://upkserver/upk/peopletools/dhtml_kp.html?Guid=69f0376e-70fc-417c-a43cecd6afb72b29& Mode=D&Back

   Note: The URL for each UPK mode ends differently. Look for &Mode= near the end of the URL.

This table lists the different URL endings and the corresponding UPK mode for each ending:
