How to automatically log in to a Dispatch screen

If you have a terminal that you'd like to automatically log in to a specific Dispatch page, you can use our Autologin feature. This was intended to be used for displays that always show the same screen, such as an Andon board, but you can use it however you like. This feature is typically used on terminals set up in 'kiosk' mode.

Here's how to use it. First, you'll need to create a URL to use on your kiosk. Here's the pattern:

https://[customer].leading2lean.com/autologin/?user=[username]&pw=[password]&site=[site number]&next=[landing page]

This is what it might look like:

https://customer.leading2lean.com/autologin/?user=testusr&pw=testpass&site=1&next=/dispatch/dispatchframes%3Farea=ALL

Tips

• The user must not be an administrator or dispatcher.
• the URL of the landing page should be URL-encoded: Replace question marks '?' with '%3F' and ampersands '&' with '%26'.
• Be careful how you use this feature. Be sure to maintain all security protocols.
• You can configure a browser to open up multiple tabs when it launches using the URLs described above, and you configure your browser to rotate through the tabs. See our support article "Automatically Rotate Through Browser Tabs" for more information.
