# Accessing Sitemaps
The Basic UI has a default layout showing all things and their corresponding items. You may create your own sitemaps and access them through the basic UI in 2 ways.
Set the default sitemap via the UI via Settings -> Basic UI -> Configure, and set the Default Sitemap name.
Passing the "sitemap" parameter to the URL used to access the server.
Examples:
- http://hostname:8080/basicui/app (opens new window) is a valid URL to load your default sitemap or to get a page listing all defined sitemaps when no default sitemap is configured.
- http://hostname:8080/basicui/app?sitemap=sitemapname (opens new window) is a valid URL to load a particular sitemap.
- http://hostname:8080/basicui/app/ (opens new window) is an invalid URL due to trailing slash.
- http://hostname:8080/basicui/app?sitemap=sitemapname/ (opens new window) is an invalid URL due to trailing slash.
