How to do linking URLs using widgets in Bold BI?
Widgets provide a powerful way to enhance the functionality of your site. However, it’s important to use the correct syntax when creating URLs for linking.
One common issue that users may encounter is the incorrect use of braces {} in the URL. This can lead to unexpected results, such as being redirected to a “dashboard not found” page.
For example, consider the following URL:
@{{:CURRENT.SITEURL}}/dashboards?dashboardName={Eval Details}&categoryName={OOTB Dashboards}&conversationid={{:conversationid}}&evaluationid={{:evaluationid}}
In this URL, the “dashboardName” and “categoryName” parameters are enclosed in {} braces. This is incorrect and will cause the URL to not function as intended.
To correct this issue, simply remove the {} braces from the URL. The correct syntax for the URL is as follows:
@{{:CURRENT.SITEURL}}/dashboards?dashboardName=Eval Details&categoryName=OOTB Dashboards&conversationid={{:conversationid}}&evaluationid={{:evaluationid}}
By using the correct syntax, you can ensure that your URLs function as intended and enhance the functionality of your site.
