Here it comes the problem: I had to access a Filemaker Database shared via Instant Web Publish from a web app (a private area), without passing through the filemaker login (very ugly and another uname/password to digit/remember) but preserving security -> no guest account on DB.
It is possible to build an url to directly access the shared database, this way:
http://<filemaker_server_ip:port>/fmi/iwp/cgi?dbpath=
%2Ffmi%2Fiwp%2Fcgi%3F-db%3D<database_file_name>%26
-startsession&acct=account&name=<username>
&password=<password>&login=Login&-authdb
- parameters to change are between <>
- the middle part is the URL encoding of: “/fmi/iwp/cgi?db=<database_file_name>&-startsession”, for the table of URL encoding see here.
That’s all!
