We have an application with external links into the Vista 8 courseroom for learners, our link follows this model:
http://{HOSTNAME}/webct/cobaltMainFrame.dowebct?appforward=/webct/urw/lc{LEARNING_CONTEXT_ID}.tp{TEMPLATE_ID}/startFrameSet.dowebct?forward=view_areas_page&lcid={LEARNING_CONTEXT_ID}&source=CAPELLA_UNIVERSITY_SIS&id={SECTIONSOURCE}&dl=/cobaltMainFrame.dowebct?appforward=/webct/urw/lc{LEARNING_CONTEXT_ID}.tp{TEMPLATE_ID}/startFrameSet.dowebct%3fforward%3dview_areas_page---lcid%3d{LEARNING_CONTEXT_ID}
Our version of Blackboard is Vista Enterprise License (Release Vista 8.0.3).
We have a requirement to provide similar external linking for faculty, what model should or url follow to implement that requirement?
Thanks,

If you are trying to go directly to a section you might try the Course URL provided for each section under that section's Course Tools link.
If you are trying to go to the institution's log in page you can try
https://(HOST MAME)/webct/logonDisplay.dowebct?insId=(LEARNING_CONTEXT_ID}&&glcid=(GLCID) &insName=CAPELLA_UNIVERSITY&loginpage=usedefault
Hope this helps
