The following Merge iConnect Access integration parameters must be configured.

Parameter

Description

Server

The Merge iConnect Access server. The integration uses this value when constructing URLs for viewing studies in the iConnect system. Do not include the protocol to use (http, https).

Example values: www.server.com, server.com

To use a specific port number, append it to the server address as shown in the following example: server.com:8080

Authprovider

The ID for the authentication provider to be used when the iConnect Access server authenticates the web request. This value must match the OnBase authProvider id configured in the Web.config for the iConnect Access IntegratorAuthenticationSTS.

Note:

If you have multiple iConnect Access servers configured, then each server must have the same values for Authprovider and SecurityID.

SecurityID

A text string used to increase the security of URLs constructed for viewing studies. This value can be any non-empty string.

When the integration creates a URL to iConnect Access, it generates a security identifier. The integration uses the SecurityID parameter to increase of the complexity of this security identifier.

Note:

If you have multiple iConnect Access servers configured, then each server must have the same values for Authprovider and SecurityID.

Custom datetime format

The format the integration will use to read the date and time of external studies returned by a federated search.

The default value is yyyyMMdd HHmmss.FFF.

For information about datetime formats, contact your iConnect Access administrator.

Static Parameters

Any additional parameters that the integration will append to the web request when viewing a study.

These must be formatted as URL query string parameters, where multiple key/value pairs are separated with an ampersand. For example, key1=value1&key2=value2. (A single key/value pair would not require an ampersand. For example, key1=value1.)

The default value is AutoEndSession=true&Fullscreen=true.

For information about available parameters, contact your iConnect Access administrator.

Enable HTTPS

Controls the protocol the integration will use when performing web requests to the iConnect Access server. Valid values are 1(for https) and 0(for http). The default and recommended value is 1.

When this value is 0, the integration's connections to the iConnect Access server are insecure. Ensure you understand the risks associated with insecure connections before disabling this setting.

Note:

If the OnBase Patient Window is configured to use HTTPS, but iConnect Access is not, then Firefox will block iConnect Access from loading. Internet Explorer will allow iConnect Access to load in a mixed environment only if the browser's Display mixed content security setting is enabled.

Enable Federated Search

Controls whether Patient Window users can retrieve external studies from iConnect. External studies are studies that do not have placeholder documents residing in OnBase. Valid values are 0(disabled) and 1(enabled). The default value is 0.

When this setting is 1, then the Find More Studies button is available in the Patient Window. When users click this button, the Patient Window retrieves external studies from iConnect using all MRNs associated with the current patient's MPI. When this setting is 0, users will not be able to retrieve external studies from iConnect using the Patient Window.

You do not need to enable this setting to use the federated search option in the HL7 DICOM Processor.
