Table Of Contents
Web resources
Web resources are simply accessed using a full URL. This URL needs to be publicly
accessible: if you type in that URL in a browser on the server, it needs to be visible.
Authentication is possible only through URL Parameters
(http://www.example.com/data.json?user=username&password=password) or through HTTP
Basic Auth (http://username:password@www.example.com/data.json).
Contexts
Contexts are parts of a template that are each used to generate a specific type of output: Email
or Print.
l The Print context outputs documents to either a physical printer or a PDF file; see "Print
context" on page130.
l The Email context outputs HTML email, composed of HTML code with embedded CSS.
See "Email context" on page172.
When a new template is made, the Context appropriate to that new template is automatically
created, including one section. After a template has been created, the other two contexts can be
added to it; see "Adding a context" on the next page.
Tip
When you add an Email context to an existing template you get a 'basic action email'.
This is one of the 4 types of email that you can choose from when you start a template
with an Email Template Wizard; see "Creating an Email template with a Wizard" on
page169.
Outputting and combining contexts
All contexts can be present in any template and they can all be used to output documents; see
"Generating Email output" on page973, "Generating Print output" on page949 and Generating
Web output.
They can even be combined in output.
If present in the same template, a Print context can be attached to an Email context.
