Bookmarked filters saved in the URL

Hi.

the people who use my qlik app have specific filters bookmarked for their use. Is there a way that a production side user can have a URL with their filters so they can bookmark it? The goal is that they open the bookmark and the filters are applied upon open, so if they need to send it to someone else they don't have to explain which filters they applied.

 

Thanks.

You can pass bookmarks through a URL.  There is some documentation about how here:

Hi @Nicole-Smith that way of doing it, opens the app outside of the hub.
the app is isolated from the hub, and that is great for that features intended use.

 

But this user is asking for a way to send a link to someone, that goes to the app in the hub, and applies a bookmmark that the sender wants the user to view. There is no way I know to do that right now.  there can be a default bookmark but there is no way to send a link to a certain other bookmark and no way for a user to actually browser bookmark a certain qlik bookmark, as the url does not have any way to include the bookmark info.

however - it is not really what users have asked for..... That feature in the link above, it is leveraging embedded sheet url, so it is an island from the hub. the link is a single configurator style link that opens the app outside of the hub structure (option to go to other streams for example)
