Symptom
- Error when opening a Story using a URL
- When building a url to a Story using SAP Analytics Cloud URL API, and adding Filter values at the of the url, it fails with the following error, if the beginning of the URL is using a custom link:
"This page isn’t working. If the problem continues, contact the site owner. HTTP ERROR 400"
Environment
- SAP Analytics Cloud
Reproducing the Issue
- In SAP Analytics Cloud, create a Story.
- In Story Sharing, create a Custom link to the Story.
- Use the Custom link, and add Filter values at the end of the URL to open the Story.
It fails with the error:
"This page isn’t working. If the problem continues, contact the site owner. HTTP ERROR 400"
Cause
- Custom link to a Story is not supported with SAP Analytics Cloud URL API.
- This is why when using the custom link when passing a Filter value to the Story in the url, it generates an error.
Resolution
- When using SAP Analytics Cloud URL API to pass Filter values to a Story within a URL, it is required to use the full Story url like:
https://<TENANT>/sap/fpa/ui/tenants/<TENANT_ID>/app.html#/story&/s/<STORY_ID>
