Accessing Sitemaps

The Basic UI has a default layout showing all things and their corresponding items. You may create your own sitemaps and access them through the basic UI in 2 ways.

1. Set the default sitemap via the UI via Settings -> Basic UI -> Configure, and set the Default Sitemap name.

2. Passing the "sitemap" parameter to the URL used to access the server.

Examples:

1. http://hostname:8080/basicui/app is a valid URL to load your default sitemap or to get a page listing all defined sitemaps when no default sitemap is configured.
2. http://hostname:8080/basicui/app?sitemap=sitemapname is a valid URL to load a particular sitemap.
3. http://hostname:8080/basicui/app/ is an invalid URL due to trailing slash.
4. http://hostname:8080/basicui/app?sitemap=sitemapname/ is an invalid URL due to trailing slash.
