You can just change the MTM accordingly in this URL.

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=6477-R4U&osName=Windows

 


As of this moment, valid entries in the quick path box will work.  In addition, the osName field does not appear to make a difference in the results and can be dropped.

 

Here are some modifications of your example:

 

No osName:

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=6477-R4U

 

Machine Type Only:

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=6477

 

Subseries Name Only:

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=Thinkpad%20X300

Well, it's ok stuff.  It would be better stuff if the osName field was working.

 

W520 Windows 7 64bit URL (not working - osName field ignored):

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=Thinkpad%20W520&osName=Windows%207%2064bit

 

Now you can use the network capture feature in IE9 to discover the hidden URL that is returned with the Browse Products function.

 

W520 Windows 7 64bit URL (working):

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&prodId=P014-S022-SS1010--&os=P014-102

 

So it's not the end of the world that the osName field does not work.  However, it would be nice if it did.

 

Thanks for all your work on this.

Re: Please keep old URLs intact

ConnectDon,

True, the osName should be working somehow it doesn't. We can't use that osName as of now, however, the team will check on. There is no time given on this fix but we'll keep looking.

Many thanks ConnectDon!

Cleo

Hi and welcome to the forum!

 

You can check warranty status using the following link:- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-service/warranty-status/default.page?

 

Hope this helps.

Re: Please keep old URLs intact

I'm aware of that link.  The solution to the original thread was:

 

support.lenovo.com/en_US/default.page?submit=true&

componentID=1303746740999&iwPreActions=SetProduct&QuickPath=<Type>&osName=Windows



What I'm looking for is a replacement similar to the URL provided above but for Warranty Status the same way this URL did:

 

www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/warrantyLookup.do?type=<Type>&serial=<SerialNumber>&country=897&iws=off&sitestyle=lenovo

I've merged your posts back with the original thread, sorry I didn't know you were talking about replacement URLs.
