Looking for Help to Create Clickable Hyperlink with Report Text Mode

I have a Documents report that lists all documents from all Projects within a Program.

I want to make the column Project: Converted Request Name a clickable link so user can easily get to the originating Request.

I tried the code from this discussion, but unfortunately, it did not work.

Any help is appreciated.0694X00000J1Kp1QAF.jpg

Give this a try. I pulled it from the 2021 Reporting Cookbook.

More Info Column Text Mode:

The following text mode will take the URL entered on your tasks and embed it into a clickable

‚Äòclick here’ within your report.

displayname=More Info

link.url=URL

linkedname=html(URL)

textmode=true

usewidths=true

valueexpression=IF(ISBLANK({URL}),"","Click here")

valueformat=HTML

width=50

Unfortunately, that did not work either.

I linked the wrong discussion in my OP. The original discussion I reviewed was this one.

This code seems close, but it does not work either.

displayname=

linkedname=convertedOpTask

namekey=view.relatedcolumn

namekeyargkey.0=convertedOpTask

namekeyargkey.1=name

querysort=convertedOpTask:name

textmode=true

valuefield=convertedOpTask:name

valueformat=HTML

This one works if you are using the link

URL=shortview=true
displayname=Original Request Link
textmode=true
valueexpression=CONCAT("https://someURL",{convertedOpTaskOriginator}.{ssoUsername})
valueformat=HTML width=15

Anyone have any other ideas on how to accomplish this?

A colleague helped with this code that appears to be pretty close:

URL=shortview=true

displayname=Original Request Link

textmode=true

valueexpression=CONCAT("https://ZZZ.my.workfront.com/issue/view?ID=",{project}.{convertedOpTask}.{ID})

valueformat=HTML width=15

This results in a new tab with the following text:

The url doesn't pull in the issue ID: https://ZZZ.my.workfront.com/issue/view?ID=

The Request no longer exists

You may have mistyped the web address. Double check it and try entering the address again.

Hello Super League!

 

I found an easy way to call the URL and create hyperlink directly in the report using text mode.
