CAST AI Administrators

If for any reason a user cannot access the Health Dashboard or Engineering Dashboard (they do not have a login or they have forgotten their password), it is possible to configure a "Can't access" link to be displayed on the dashboard login page (by default this link is not enabled - see HD - Dashboard wide configuration options in json and ED - Dashboard wide configuration options in json for more information about enabling this link).

The "Can't access" link offers the users the chance to contact the administrator to request access:

When this option is used, two sub-options are provided:

• Password lost
• Request access

For each sub-option, a draft email will be created in the user's default email client requesting a new password or access. The contents of these draft emails are generic, however you can tailor them to your own installation as follows:

• The contents of the emails are defined in the following file which you should open in a text editor:

Health Dashboard - %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\CAST-AAD\portal\resources\urls.json
Engineering Dashboard - %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\CAST-Engineering\engineering\resources\urls.json

• The following script will be displayed:

[
    {
        "id": "login-reset-password",
        "url": "mailto:cast_administrator@customer.com",
        "params": {
            "subject": "CAST Health Dashboard: Password lost",
            "body": "Hi, I forgot my password. \nCan you send me the password linked to the UserName '$login-userlost'. \nRegards."
        }
    },
    {
        "id": "login-request-access",
        "url": "mailto:cast_administrator@customer.com",
        "params": {
            "subject": "CAST Health Dashboard: Request access",
            "body": "Hi, I would like to connect to the Dashboard. \nCan I have a username and password, please? \nRegards."
        }
    }
]

• The script is fairly straightforward and you can adapt it to your own environment:

...

This value governs the text displayed in the body of the email:

• Carriage returns (if you require them) must be entered using the "\n" character combination.
• The $login-userlost value will automatically enter the username as provided by the user attempting to access the dashboard.

• Following any changes you make, save the urls.json file and then restart your application server so that the changes are taken into account.
