Hi,

We need to generate a URL which consist the parameter available in the workbook when we share the URL. Requirement is to get similar URL which we get from BIP Report where parameters are configured. Expectation is to configure these Workbook URL under APEX application so users can only access data as per their access . We are trying these functionality under OAC Embedded in FDIP

Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Hi @SteveF-Oracle,

    Thanks for the response, this helped!
    Can we pass a variable to parameter. Our requirement is that these workbooks would be accessed from APEX application so when the user logs into the APEX instance, data level filters should be applied to Workbook for which user is trying to access it.

    As of now I tried appending the parameter name and no parameter values by using syntax of
    &p1n=ParamterName1&p1v=&p2n=ParameterName2&p2v=
    With such configuration Workbook is working as if it is being accessed using normal URL without parameter
