parametrized URL to set dashboard filters

  • 1.  parametrized URL to set dashboard filters

    Posted Tue February 02, 2021 02:52 PM
    Hi All,

    We want to pass some Parameters from our UI to Cognos Dashboard (IBM Cognos Analytics 11.1 R7 (LTS)) via url method. Is it possible for Dashboard to set filters dynamically from url ?

    We are planning to embed the Dashboard URL within iFrame interface and want to pass values from custom UI
    Link ex:


    https://<WEBSERVER>/ibmcognos/bi/?CAMNamespace=<NAMESPACEID>&perspective=dashboard&pathRef=<pathrefval>&action=view&mode=dashboard&subView=model000001772906e25c_00000003

    I tried something like this 
    https://<WEBSERVER>/ibmcognos/bi/?CAMNamespace=<NAMESPACEID>&perspective=dashboard&pathRef=<pathrefval>&action=view&mode=dashboard&subView=model000001772906e25c_00000003&p_Indi_Username=marouen

    and it didn't work


    Thanks,
