modus How do I pass Session ID and Server URL via link
We currently have a support portal that includes the salesforce.com hosted login page specific to our organization. Eventually we will handle the login via the typical API integration, however, for now I would just like to know the personalization strings necessary to validate a session. I know that the Session ID is {!User_Session_ID}, but what is the string for Server URL?
Thank you,

Hi modus,
Check out the other available merge fields on the web link page. The fields you need will be defined there.
I looked on the web link page but it was not very helpful either. I am trying to add a link to a lead on my page and I do not want the use to have to log in again. My link looks like
"https://na1.salesforce.com/" + sflead.leadID.toString() + "?sid=" + strFSSession
But this still requires does not work and
"https://na1.salesforce.com/" + sflead.leadID.toString()
requires the user to log in. How can I pass the sessionID I have from the API on the link?
Hi Boston Dave,
Are you trying to pass this info to a jsp or asp page or an scontrol?
Neither. I am writing a servlet that interacts with salesforce in the background through the API, creating and managing Leads and Tasks. I want to be able to display a link on a page that will allow the user to go directly into the salesforce website and view the lead there without having to log in again since I already have the username, password, valid session, valid session url.
Thanks,
David
Hi BostonDave,
Ok, you need to use frontdoor.jsp.
