3565562 - Bookmark does not save the current state of a page book in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

  • Bookmark does not preserve the current state of the page book widget within the story.
  • When accessing the bookmark created after navigating to the second page of the page book widget, it opens to the first page of the widget in the story instead.

Environment

SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD 2024.21.11

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login to SAC
  2. Create a story and add the page book widget.
  3. Change the page of page book.
  4. Create a bookmark
  5. Reload the story again
  6. Open the created bookmark
  7. The story will open with first page 1 in page book

 

Cause

  • By design behavior
  • PageBook active page key is not saved into SAC story. It means if you save one story that has one PageBook (which has the second page as the active page), and then you open the story again, the active page is still the first page. Bookmark cannot save the state either.

Resolution

  • Create an enhancement request to request this feature https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign/884 

  • Workaround:
    1. Insert one PageBook widget.
    2. Create ScriptVariable_1 using outline. The type is string.
    3.  In Page_1 – onInitialization, add
      1. PageBook_1.setSelectedKey(ScriptVariable_1);
    4. In PageBook_1 – onSelect, add
      1. ScriptVariable_1=PageBook_1.getSelectedKey();
