Passing Parameters in a URL and Document Chaining

This videos describes how to pass parameters in a URL and how to leverage this techinque to chain documents when using AJAX.

The genral syntax is as follows:

http://myserver//QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=DocumentName.qvw&host=Local&select=LB01,Value

It is also possible to us a similar technique to go directly to a specific sheet within a document using the sheet parameter.

e.g. http://myserver//QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=DocumentName.qvw&host=Local&sheet=SH01

You can have multiple list boxes like below.

http://localhostqlikviewserver:document=Test.qvw&host=QVS@localhost&sheet=SH01&select=LB67,-&select=... America&select=LB83,21st Century&select=LB70,-

Hello,

I would like to open a document and send 1M+ disctinct values from one dimension/listbox. I've tried this with the OPEN URL action and select=LBXX.

I assume there is a limit on the amount of values you can send along with the URL?

Is there another option? I want one qlikview document that is on the accesspoint to be able to open another Qlikview document on the accesspoint.

Koen,

Try the "Open QlikView Document" approach described above.

I'm using "Open URL" for document chaining and I'm able to pass multiple parameters through List box. But in our application We have "Multi Box" filter also. Unable to pass selected parameters on "Multi Box" . Is it possible or it's a bug?

I can't use Open QlikView document as I've to publish this two documents in Different Accesspoint.

Please suggest.

Hi Manash,

No it isn't possible to reference a multibox.  What I typically do is create a hidden sheet with listboxes for all the parameters I want to pass.  This gives me everything I need but doesn't impact the user experience.

Hi jgd‌,

Thanks for the post this really helps me to start on document Chaining.

I have a problem while implementing document chaining in my project, have tried to explain the same in below:

In my scenario I have to open the same sheet in 2nd app on which I have clicked  in my 1st app.

For e.g : If I clicked in sheet2 in app A the same sheet (i.e. sheet2) should get trigger in app B, below is the screen shot for sheet layout for your reference (I have used Open QlikView document action to achieve this)
