Does anyone know if/how to set up a hyperlink in QlikView that when clicked will open a dashboard in Access Point with some selections already made?

We'r tracking survey responses for departments and want to be able to provide them a quick and easy link to see their data via email. I've got a link to the dashboard in a NPrinting email, but i'm looking for more like the functionality of the the "Mail with bookmark as a link" functionality in AccessPoint.

You can call a field from a URL like this:

http://webserver/qvajaxzfc/opendoc.htm?document=app.qvw&select=LB01,2017

Assuming that LB01 is the ID of a listbox with the Year field in it.

Thank Miguel, that should solve most of what i'm trying to accomplish. Would it just be an additional "&select=" if i wanted to pick multiple selections, and does it work with Qlik functions like "today()"

You can add multiple selects but you cannot use functions, after all, it's a URL, so all parentheses and signs like {, }, <, >, / could actually be trimmed by your corporate proxy as they should not be used in any HTTP request
