Agent trigger via Web

My enquiry---------------------------------------------

  1. Is this possible to trigger an agent (Java / Notes is also welcome) via web browser. And, the result of the agent can be written on the form?

  2. I know I can use @command to trigger the agent. However, could the agent triggered by the design elements in my form (e.g. a hotspot button)

  3. Regarding writing back the result, I afraid if this is possible or not. Or, a conflict document may be raised.


Since the application should be run via web, I can’t use lotus script for events.

However, the agent’s logic is too complex to use formula only. Therefore, I would like to know if my enquiries are possible or not.

Yes, you can do this. Read the help on coding web agents. Basically, these are your options:

“Webqueryopen” and “Webquerysave” form events are designed for running agents

?OpenAgent Domino URL, which can be called from anchor links, hotspots, buttons, etc.

You can output an agent’s results to the browser also; again, read the help.
