6.19 Action - Launch URL
The Action - Launch URL dialog box lets you specify the URL to launch on the device. You can also specify the specific requirements that a device must meet for the action to be executed on the device.
Figure 6-21 Action - Launch URL Dialog Box
To access this dialog box in ZENworks Control Center, click the tab. Click the underlined link of a bundle in the column of the list, click the tab, click one of the action set tabs (Distribute, Install, Launch, Verify, Uninstall, Terminate, or Preboot), click the drop-down list, then select an available action.
NOTE:When you create a bundle and select the action, then assign the bundle to a device, each action launches the URL in a new tab in the same window.
In a whitelisted environment, the action might not work as expected. By default, the whitelisting feature is disabled for the action. To enable the action to work in a whitelisted environment, you need to add a registry value named UseShellExecute,to HKLM\Software\Novell\ZCM\AgentSettings, and set the value data to false. However, when the whitelisting feature is enabled, the action launches the URL in a new browser window instead of a new tab.
