Viewing a Tag

URL

The viewer let you get the information for a specific tag using a simple URL. Let's see some examples.

You access the view with this URL : https://taglinker.app/view?tagname

Document tag

You want to open a document, you just need to specify the document tag name in the URL through the viewer, the file name of the document is a tag name for TagLinker. So let's open a P&ID document with the file name "DSOT-DW-2200-IC-8008" using its URL (see video below):

All the tag information

Viewing a tag is very simple, for example. if you look for the tag 2400-TIC-100 : https://taglinker.app/view?2400-TIC-100.

Specific document for a tag

If you want to open the P&ID drawing of this tag: https://taglinker.app/view?2400-TIC-100/PID.

The location drawing will be https://taglinker.app/view?2400-TIC-100/LOC*, etc.. for any document types you may have.

Multiple documents of the same type for a tag

In a project, you may have multiple General Arrangement documents (GA) showing the same tag on each of them. If you want the first "GA" of a tag the URL is: https://taglinker.app/view?2400-TIC-100/GA/1, the second "GA" is https://taglinker.app/view?2400-TIC-100/GA/2, etc..

This URL approach allow you to reference all these URLs in your own documentation or application.

In response, TagLinker will give you back all the tag's information:

  • The tag's data from the linked spreadsheet/sheet and the link to open the sheet
  • The tag's status color and value (connected, tested, etc.. )
  • A tag's note (commissioning note or other.. )
  • All the tag's associated documents buttons links
  • All the tag's associated vendor documents (from its part number) buttons links
  • The real-time values if the tag is connected to a field controller
