Unable to access community or user sheet objects

pstiglich — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 18:53:30 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to create an Excel report and reference a named table or chart in a user sheet. When I search for this name in Template Editor / Add Objects - NPrinting doesn't find these.

Thanks,

Pete

First of all this is not a good practice as such sheet can be moved or removed and your report will star breaking. I would never base my reporting on sheets which are not "base sheets"

The second thing is to refresh connection metadata to allow for all new objects to be available in. So refresh metadata and try again.

thanks

BTW - make sure that you are actually connecting to the application which has community sheets as often the common practice is to have separate app to support NPrinting due to use of Alwyas one selected value, triggers, extensions or alternate states.
