Previous sheet/page

No parameters.

Go to sheet

Sheet id of the sheet to go to; can be entered manually or automatically by using the drop-down list.

Go to story

Story id of the story to go to; can be entered manually or automatically by using the drop-down list.

Go to url

Specify the URL in the Url input box and the target in the Target list. The Mashup only option restricts the action to mashups.

Go to app

Share app

Specify the target of an generated link to be shared as email or added to clipboard.

If you select Email as the target you can further specify an email address, email subject and email body. You can use {0} as a placeholder for the generated link. You can also add a custom text for the link. The link will then show the text as specified. If omitted, it will be inserted at the end of the body.

If you use the email option, the email will be generated as an eml file. That way the email can have custom html and allows the option for the individual link. In order to download the eml file, the system administrators have to enable the option to download the generated eml file in the browsers. Currently all browsers handle the download of eml files differently. In general all browsers need to allow downloads. Then either save the eml file or open it directly.

Target clipboard adds the generated link to the clipboard and shows a message to the user.

Field selections

The current selection is included in the generated URL. Note however that too many selections can heavily impact the performance of opening the sheet. Especially if the parameters are in square brackets → .../select/Sales/[2%2C12];[2%2C97]/

If your URL contains such values, we suggest to use no more than 10 selections.

Limitations:

• In "Qlik Sense Desktop" the Email target doesn’t work.

• In mashup/story mode the URL can’t be properly generated.

• Eml files are necessary because direct emails can not handle the sense links correctly

• Generated eml files are shown as possible bad software by some browsers

Limitations of field selections:

• Links in Outlook don’t open selections correctly when using the link directly, to open the links use the copy hyperlink option.
• If you have a selection for a field that is a formula like =Round(Sales), the sheet won't load.
• No more than 100 values can be selected for a field
• The URL will not be longer than 2000 characters. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/417184
