Launch App

Use this command to launch a Longview App from a toolbar icon or a context-sensitive cell action. You can embed the Launch App command in the Command parameter of the Action Data View function. For more information, see Action. Items launched using Launch commands are independent to the .lvapp from which the item is launched. This command is specific to Longview Apps.

Note: You cannot use the Launch App command in batch mode.

Syntax

Launch App AppName [“Variable1=Value1[&Variable2=Value2...]”]

where:

  • AppName is the name of the Longview App to launch without the .lvapp extension. If the Longview App name includes spaces, enclose it in double quotation marks.
  • Variable is optional and is the variable to which to pass the Value. You can pass more than one variable and value pair as long as the variable is unique. For information on variables, see Using tokens, variables, and strings.
  • Value is the value to pass to the related Variable.

Syntax example

Launch App HelloWorldApp "account=$C_ACCOUNTS$"
