Pass XY Data to Application

Hello,

 

We have a Geocortex map embedded into another application. Currently, there is a startup workflow that watches for a click event and alerts the coordinates.

 

My Question: Is there a way to send the XY data to the host application and how?

  You can pass variables into a workflow using arguments. You would setup either a single string argument or latitude and longitude arguments. Then you call the workflow by YOURVIEWERURL&run=YOURWORKFLOW&latitude=40&longitude=-104

  So, let me clarify:

   

  The startup workflow is watching for click events and currently just alerts the lat long data when a user clicks.

   

  Instead of alerting the coordinates, I want to send these coordinates to another application (NOT GEOCORTEX) that the map is currently embeded inside.

   

  So, my question again, is there a way I can send the XY data to this other application?

  Depending on how you have the map embedded in your application you might be able to make use of a javascript function that will send the coordinates to the parent application using the window.opener.postMessage() function.  In the parent application you would use an eventListener to watch for a 'message' event.

   

  Parent code: window.addEventListener('message',function(e) { updateCoords(e.data); },false);

   

  Child code: window.opener.postMessage(projectedGeoms[0].x + "," + projectedGeoms[0].y, "*");

  Odiri. Sorry read your question backwards. Peter is spot on.
