Is it possible to view certain reports in Queuemetrics without having to log in?  If not, is there an easy way to POST a username and password when trying to fetch a URL? 

We are developing a web frontend for our call center agents and we'd like to have a link that will pull up a queuemetrics report when clicked.  We want to avoid them having to log in separately and going through the whole process to get it going.

Ideas?

Thanks!

You can do three things:
1. post default credentials and have users use these
2. make a POST request that overrides the first page (I think it might work but I have to check)
3. create a PHP front-end that will make a query to QM and display stats coming up from QM; in this case your users would not need to interact with the main QM app.

Thanks for the response.  Can you elaborate on #1 and #2?

#1. You tell your users to login as "guest" password "guest", and create a limited user "guest" on your QM instance. As you can change the text on the
QM homepage, they would simply know what's going on.

#2. You create an auto-post form that will simulate a user logfgin in in QM by acting as-if the home page when you enter credentials.
