TM1 Web URL for opening a specific sheet in a Websheet

Post by Martin Ryan »

I've had a read of the "Developing Custom Web Applications with the URL API" in developer guide, but can't find any mention of how to write a URL that links to a specific sheet within a websheet.

I want to create a menu on a home page that links to the reports available, not just each workbook, but each sheet within those workbooks.

I don't want to use action buttons if possible as I'd like the home page to be HTML to give me more flexibility with how I build the menu.

Is this possible?

Martin

I've used the URL API to build applications and menus navigating to specific views and websheets quite a lot (but not for a while) and recall coming up against the same issue.

The simple solution is to separate any multiple tab reports into single tab worksheets. I've come to regard this as a best practice for designing TM1 web applications anyway, just one of the things to bear in mind from a design perspective if the intended UI is web as opposed to Excel.
