Many AIM clients, both official and third party, allow for special URLs to be used to control the client. URLs can allow web pages and other programs to pass commands to AIM clients.

Introduction

There are several methods for launching AIM URLs:

  1. In Windows, the command can be entered via the Run dialog accessed via the Start Menu or by using the system hot keys Windows + R.
  2. Clicking the URL within AIM, such as in an IM or Profile window.
  3. Clicking an AIM link that's embedded in a web page.

Most AIM URLs are used while the client is online, if it is not, the AIM client will typically prompt you to sign on.

URLs

Depending on the version of the AIM client in use, some URLs may not be available for use. Additionally, parameters are not case sensitive, but their values are.

aim:goIm

This action will invoke a IM window with the screenname of the recipient and the message to send pre-populated.

ScreenName [screenname] Optional; If not set, the "To" field will be empty.

TargetBuddyList [target link] Optional; primary account is default if target linked account is not provided.
