Do much more than the web viewer
The Web viewer introduced with FileMaker Pro 8.5 made also possible to get data from web sites. However the Troi URL Plug-in can do much more:
- use the POST method to send data
- get images into containers
- set custom headers
- set cookies
- get data without showing the page on a layout (no render time)
- and more...
Fill out web forms from FileMaker Pro
Troi URL Plug-in can help you fill in forms on the Internet, all from FileMaker Pro. It also retrieves data from any HTTP URL. All from FileMaker Pro you can:
- use the POST method to fill in a web form and retrieve the result directly in FileMaker Pro
- use the GET method to retrieve data and images
- use a secure connection (HTTPS) using SSL
- get access to password protected web pages
- encode text into HTTP format
- show a custom progress dialog during the retrieval (Mac OS only)
More powerful: big parameters and images too!
Troi
URL Plug-in 2.0 uses the new External Function
API introduced with FileMaker Pro 7. The plug-in
functions now have a size limit of 1
Gb per parameter (up from the total of
64000 character limit for all parameters in FileMaker
6!). Also the function parameters now support Unicode
characters (Some dialogs only support ASCII at the
moment).
You can even get JPEG, GIF and
PNG images directly into a container field.
Suggested Uses
Troi URL plug-in allows you to:
- fill in forms on web sites or your intranet
- get online data like stock quotes, weather reports, etc.
- automatically add information to listings and online databases
- search the Internet for terms or other specific items (like in Sherlock)
- get the postal code or time of your city
- process credit cards, for example with the Aloha Credit Card Processor solution
All these features also work in a runtime solution!
This plug-in opens new possibilities to interact with the Internet in powerful ways. We invite you to test drive the new functions and see what you can do with it!
Content-Type and setting other headers is now possible too
Important: earlier versions of the plug-in could not set the header "Content-Type". But from version 1.8.2 you can now set headers any way you want.
