Is there a way to pass parameters to a QlikView document through the URL? I intend to use this on IE with the QVPlugin.
For instance, I would like to provide a link to a QlikView document embedded in a report sent to a user which lists part numbers. The user would click the link for a specific part number, and the QlikView document would open with that part number selected.
This brings the document up in Ajax which, technically, is okay for what I'm trying to do, and the outcome is precisely what I wanted. However, this functionality would open up a lot of doors for us if I were able to do this same thing using the QVPlugin.
Can I do the same thing using the QVPlugin? Where is the documentation for this feature, if it exists, and the feature I listed above?
Take a look at the QVP protocol (as opposed to using HTTP) - search for 'Connection Pseudo-URLs' in the QVS reference manual. With it you can pass (via named pair) the name of a variable that is to receive the passed value and then do what you want using a macro triggered by the OnOpen event.
I dont think you can do this if you use AccessPoint (but willing to be proven wrong) and for this reason I dont use it, but prefer .asp pages and links to documents using QVP.
