Hi friends!

We're looking to create a dynamic link to an invoice image in Coupa, ideally within a table cell tied to the AP Transaction row.

Has anyone accomplished something similar?

Is anyone using the REST connector to bring data over from Coupa? If so, I'd love to chat if you're open to it!

Thanks!

Yes, a custom formula can create dynamic links within TBM Studio table cells which will link to Coupa invoices (assuming your Coupa installation has enabled web view of invoices, normally protected behind user authentication).

Usually this means one column contains the Coupa invoice number, which can then be dynamically inserted (either in that same column, or in a nearby column which perhaps says "Link to invoice") as part of a hyperlink definition.

A similar example:

Link = "<a href=""https://ourcoupa.com/contracts/" & {PO to Contract Master Data.Contract ID} & """>Click for contract</a>"

I also learned from Chris's post. 

When I try to refer table name as part of valuable( {PO to Contract Master Data.Contract ID} ), I get an error message that "Cannot find column named "PO to Contract Master Data.Contract ID" in table "PO to Contract Master Data".
By taking out table name and putting a column name on the same table, i got it working. 

If you face the same problem, I hope this info is helpful.
