URL Parameter in Indoor Viewer to launch directly to feature

RicardoRoch — Thu, 09 Oct 2025 11:06:42 GMT

I would like to create links in the Indoor Viewer using URL parameters. Unfortunately, only linking using the Layer Units works correctly for me. I used this documentation for this: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/indoors/latest/viewer/launch-directly-to-a-feature-or-route.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_E2847B92EBD845BB869B242357B674F3.

In the other cases, I have two problems:

1) Locate dropped pins on the correct floor

Setting the pin in the correct position works. However, the floor is not adjusted, even though the parameter “l” is set. The floor with vertical order 0 is always displayed.

Example: https://arcgis-prd-web.ethz.ch/portal/apps/indoors/?appid=603556f36a91438f8418f5d28c98bc1e&itemSourceKey=standalone&itemUniqueId=ETH.OCT.G&y=47.41328384316019&x=8.536499444054488&l=2

2) Launch POI via parameter

Like the units, I would like to call certain POIs via the ObjectID. For the units, this looks as follows:

https://arcgis-prd-web.ethz.ch/portal/apps/indoors/?appid=603556f36a91438f8418f5d28c98bc1e&itemUniqueIdField=OBJECTID&itemSourceKey=Units&itemUniqueId=3676912

If I try this for the POI, it does not open the POI:

https://arcgis-prd-web.ethz.ch/portal/apps/indoors/?appid=603556f36a91438f8418f5d28c98bc1e&itemUniqueIdField=OBJECTID&itemSourceKey=PointsOfInterest&itemUniqueId=266952

When I generate the link from the Indoor Viewer, I see that the subtype is used as the itemSourceKey. However, this is not mentioned in the documentation:

So now I'm wondering what the parameters for opening the POI should be.
