Symptom
- It is not possible to configure a direct link that opens an SAC add-in report automatically.
- When clicking on an Excel SAC add-in file stored in an SAC folder, the file downloads to the local download folder instead of opening directly in Excel with the add-in activated.
- The SAC add-in requires manual activation within Excel after opening the file, and this step cannot be bypassed with a direct URL.
- Planned enhancement for direct launching of Excel files from SAC stories is scheduled for 2025Q1, but this refers to launching from the SAC interface, not via direct URLs.
