topic Locking bookmark filters in QlikView https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Locking-bookmark-filters/m-p/539805#M201727 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">Hi,</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">I have a series of document bookmarks in my test.qvw that are used in conjunction with alerts that are triggered after each reload. For example, bookmark ID 10 has two filters applied - <EM>Country=United Kingdom</EM> and <EM>Business=Automobiles</EM>. The email that is sent for each alert includes a URL to the bookmark, for example: <A href="http://coqvbi01.fitch.corp/Qvplugin/opendoc.htm?document=QV_GlobalOps%2FCombinedAgingReport.qvw%3Fbookmark%3DDocument%5CBM53" title="http://coqvbi01.fitch.corp/Qvplugin/opendoc.htm?document=QV_GlobalOps%2FCombinedAgingReport.qvw%3Fbookmark%3DDocument%5CBM53"><SPAN style="color: #333333;">http://.../Qvplugin/opendoc.htm?document=test.qvw?bookmark=Document\</SPAN></A>BM10</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">Users can access and modify the bookmark filters (<EM>Country</EM> and <EM>Business</EM>, in this case), but this should not be permitted, as it would compromise the automated emails that are sent via the alerts. Each email pertains to a particular Country/Business combination, so if, for example, a user changes the Country for bookmark ID 10 from <EM>United Kingdom </EM>to <EM>France </EM>and saves the change, then that would send incorrect data to the email recipients in the UK Automobiles group. A similar problem would arise if either of the two filters were removed.</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">Is there a way to either hide the bookmarks from the users (I cannot make them user bookmarks because the location/name of the report will change in the future, so I would lose them when that happens), make them "read-only", or "lock" the bookmark filters so they cannot be modified by the users?</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">Thanks,</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">VB</SPAN></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 28 Aug 2013 10:38:04 GMT Anonymous 2013-08-28T10:38:04Z Locking bookmark filters https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Locking-bookmark-filters/m-p/539805#M201727 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">Hi,</SPAN></P><P></P><P><SPAN style="color: #333333;">I have a series of document bookmarks in my test.qvw that are used in conjunction with alerts that are triggered after each reload.
