Query String Passing Parameter, Results Page Not Taking It.

[Dschrepfer]

I have a results page that I'm passing a parameter with a Query String to another results page.  I can see the parameter is passing correctly because it is showing in the address bar, but it's not filtering per the Unique ID. 

 

When I preview my second results page it is asking for the parameter so I'm at a loss as to why it isn't taking it and showing all the records.

Hello Dschrepfer,

 

It should work

Please make sure that the name of parameter in your Query String and in your pre-defined criteria of your DataPage are the same. For example, "test" in a Query String and "[@test]" in the criteria. For example, "[@Test]" may do not work.

 

Do you use only one criteria for filtering?

I think it isn't working because my first results list is pulling from a View and not accepting the data because it's named differently?

 

This is my query string:  <a href="http://b6.caspio.com/?Quote_ID=[@field:Quote_Quote_ID]">Delete Quote</a>

 

It's passing the parameter:  http://b6.caspio.com/?Quote_ID=92129 correctly, just not accepting it.

Please make sure that in your Report DataPage you use the same Parameter on load. I mean "[@Quote_Quote_ID]"

 

And please make sure, that on the Search Type step:

- "Filter data based on your pre-defined criteria" is selected;

- "Allow parameters in search criteria" is checked;

- "Bridge and external parameters" is selected.

 

By default, "Bridge parameters only" is selected and parameters from a Query String do not work.

 

I hope, it helps.
