"Data table from URL" example please

tobrien · ‎02-26-2017

Hi,

We're on Helsinki.

I am crafting a Service Portal and attempting to use the Data Table From URL widget. I do not understand how to enter the url and parameters... it always wants to drop down a list of tables.

Where does the URL part come in?

I am attempting to add this to the URL:

?id=list&table=u_vtracking&filter=active%3Dtrue^short_descriptionISNOTEMPTY&spa=1&p=1

All suggestions are most welcome!

Hi Anthony,

here is the example of a page with data table with URL.

https://instnace.service-now.com/sp/?id=test&table=incident&filter=active%3Dtrue

In the above url,

test: Page ID.

sp: portal ID

table: data table parameter: table

filter: data table parameter : filter

Thank you Tony,

I thought you used the data table from URL definition.

I run into 2 issues with the data table - maybe you run into it also and can assist:

1. when pressing on a single record - it does not take me to the record itself.

2. for some reason, there new button does not appear.

All of this exist in the data table from URL definition, except the field order

Yes, I am sorry to say that BOTH observations are limitations of the WIDGET. The table being presented is not "really" like the view you get when opening a table as you would normally; so those 2 items you mentioned are not available.
