Making dynamic links from report fields

Is there a way to make report fields link to differnt websites? I can't use the 'link' tool in 'editing' option of making the report because the link will not be the same for each record in the database. The field itself is actually the address of the website I want to be able to link to. So essentially, what I want to do is something like: ..but this does not work. Does anyone know if this is possible??
Thanks!

You can use SQL report to do this:
Suppose the column which contains the web addressed is called url_column, your SQL
will be something like
select htf.anchor(url_column, name) from the_table
Then in the Column Formatting page,
set the "Display as" for column url_column as HTML.
Run the report and the values form that column will be a url which links to other web sites
null

Creating links from report fields

Hi,
I have created a report but need to make one of the fields a hyperlink (ie 'LINK' field). The report is built from parameters entered by a user & so, every record returned will contain a different 'LINK' value. How can I specify that this needs to be displayed as a hyperlink? I've tried various ways to create the link by '<a href' tags in the report customization step but to no success.
I cannot create a link component and attach it to the 'LINK' field as the value in this field changes each time depending on the entered parameters.
Any assistance that can be provided is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

"edit" link from report to form does not show values

I created a report and an attached form on two different pages. The report is a query combining two tables with outer joins. When I click on the "edit" button on the report, I get forwarded to the form page.
My problem: When I get forwarded to the forms page, I get an empty form, and not the data from the column as expected. The "edit" button behaves more like the "create" button. Anybody an idea what I could change to be able to edit the column data?
Thank you.

I've met the similar problem with previous releases (1.5.0 and 1.5.1) without any objective reason.
As I suggests, sometimes HTMLDB lost current session state. When this occurs, ALL links from reports to it's forms does not transit primary keys. I've just completed application development and I've met this behaviour every months.
As a workaround I found folowwjing process:
Come into administration tab, selet "Report with option to purge current session state". When I purge current session state and re-login to application, all report-form links will start to work.
I don't know, what is the issue, but I met it so soon on my local HTMLDB environment.

Dynamic link from Premiere to Speed grade is incredible slow.

Dynamic link from Premiere to Speed grade is incredible slow. About 10 minutes or so. I usually measure the time by hands of Solitaire, min 3 wins. I've trashed prefs, OS and apps all updated, run system maintenance. I'm at a loss. This workflow isn't working for me. Please give me some troubleshooting ideas.
Thanks Bill

Or is the workflow save/Quit my project in Premiere. then open in Speedgrade. Then save/Quit my project in Speedgrade and re-open in Premiere?
yeah thats basically it, you could leave premiere open but save and close the project before opening it up in speedgrade. if you are going to be in speedgrade a while, its best to just close premiere so it doesn't tie up any system resources sitting in the background. the dynamic link buttons/commands in premiere and speedgrade just save, close, and open in other program. so once you do your work in speedgrade save the project, close, then open it back in premiere and it should all be there.

Encore CS6 Dynamic Link from Pr CS6 Problem/Issue

I switched from Production Premium CS5 to CS6. I first deactivated and uninstalled my CS5 then installed CS6 on my Windows 7 machine.
The problem:
When I edit together a video in Premiere CS6 and have finished, I use Dynamic Link from within Encore CS6 to bring in that timeline. After that, I use AME to transcode that Dynamic Link asset to the DVD MPEG standard, Encore CS6 keeps poping up a notification window that says: "The transcoded DynamicLink asset _______ has changed on the server. Would you like to reimport it? Yes/No" It prompts me each time I enter Encore and any time I move from another open program back to Encore.
And I have to click No for each timeline that I have used Dynamic Link for (which is usually 5 or so).
Any ideas or help? This is incredibly annoying.
Thank you.

As an update. I am using the newest version of PluralEyes (v 2.0.5 7358) to sync the audio of the multiple camera event films I have shot. I have since created a new project in Premiere and only manually lined up clips and then Dynamically Linked that to a new Encore project and so far Encore has not promtpted me with the error/message: "The transcoded DynamicLink asset _______ has changed on the server. Would you like to reimport it? Yes/No"
Any ideas? This is very frustrating. Thank you!

Dynamic Link from Premiere freezes at 50%

I have never used the dynamic link from Premiere CS4 to Encore CS4 so I don't know if this feature has ever worked. I tried to send just a 25 minute unedited timeline to Encore to see if it worked. Encore goes through it's features but freeze at 50% at transporting timeline. Any ideas?

I may have answered my own question. I finually did get it to work, maybe by chance. I msconfig and cleaned out my start up menue and that seems to have cured it.

Dynamic Link from Pr to En

I have Master Collection CS5 on Windows 7 x64. I made a Premier Pro project and have been trying to send the sequence to Encore via Dynamic Link. At first it looks like it will work--after clicking on the menu item "Send to Encore", Encore starts up and I can enter a new project name in, as expected. I keep all the settings as default, other than the name of the project and where to put it. As soon as I click OK, Encore creates the project file, but then that's where it stops. My mouse becomes a waiting cursor as long as I am mousing over the Encore window and if I try and click in the window, it greys out and the title bar says (Not Responding). I've let it sit like this for about 30 min to see if it would eventually do what it needs to do, but to no avail.
Very similarly, if I start in Encore and open a project and go to Adobe Dynamic Link -> Import Premeir Pro Sequence, the program goes unresponsive in the same way (this time with no further input).
I have updated QuickTime, turned off all Anti-virus software and disabled my firewall. In Task Manager, I can see that "Adobe QT32 Server.exe *32" is running, as is "dynamiclinkmanager.exe*32" and "CS5ServiceManager.exe *32" (and of course Adobe Premier Pro.exe). I've run WireShark to try and determine what ports are being used, but pretty much all the traffic I see (when I stop all my other networking services) is going to 192.150.16.80, which is an Adobe Server, according to my reverse DNS lookup... I don't know if that's an update check or a license check or what...
Are there any Windows Services that I need to make sure are not disabled? That's about the last idea I have right now...
Thanks in advance

Perhaps I misunderstand the point of Dynamic Link, but isn't it supposed to be that none of the rendering gets done until it is needed (in this case, in Encore)?
The transcoding doesn't get done until you tell it, but some situations require some processnig. (I don't think that is your issue.)
I doubt it has anything to do with the premier sequence itself because I get the same behavior when initiating Dynamic Link FROM Encore--in this case I never get a chance to select what Premier sequence I want to import because the program goes unresponsive as soon as I hit the "Import Premier Pro Sequence" menu choice.
Yes, that points to Encore. I assume that none of Premiere (the headless instance that runs for DL for example) is starteds at that point.
Also, I did transcode into MPEG2-DVD from Premier and then imported that into Encore, and that works,
So Encore is not totally messed in your install...
but I'd like to get Dynamic Link working, all the same...
Absolutely!
This does not sound like an error we've seen here before.
Try opening Encore using the "run as administrator" tactic, and try the DL from Encore.
MPEG files can create a variety of issues, as often from the audio as the video. But the hang from Encore's end for DL argues against that. But I don't see any further option other than repair/reinstall.

Link from report to a file in a folder

i have a situation as follows :
i have a customers file and each customer has a agreement. what i want is a oracle portal report that has a link to the agreement (agreement is a pdf file), such that, when i run the report and click a particular column it opens up the agreement.
the only problem is that the link need to be dynamic meaning, if the user clicks customer id 10 it should open a agreement for cutomer 10. if the user clicks customer id 20 it should open a agreement for customer 20 and so on.
is there any way of achieving dynamic links to the items in site from the components.
ideas anyone ... ?
any help would be greatly appreciated ...

thanks all of you,
I don't went to save the file manually.
I only want to a function just like archiving function which can save file in background job.
I can develop a program to save a report as file in background job,but I have to develop a program for every report,I want to know is there any standard function for it, just like throwing the report to spool.

Dynamic Link from Premiere CC to After Effects CC Issues.

Just bought a new iMac maxed out 3.75ghz quad-core, 32 gig of ram, 1t solid state and 4 gigs of video ram; so my machine is more then capable of using adobe video applications very well. I like to do a lot of dynamic link things from premiere to after effects and 9 times out of 10 I use a black video (File>New>Black Video) as my place holder on the time line or you could use bars or a color matte, doesnt matter.. When I do my composite in after effects and then come back to premiere to render, it takes freaking forever if I leave after effects open. If I close after effects then do the render, it fires through the premiere render and no problems.
Now I also have a maxed out 12 core 64 gig ram Mac Pro tower at work and I have the same problem. Is this a known bug thats in the works of being fixed? Is there a work around instead of closing after effects to render to make it work smoother? Is adobe aware of this issue? Nothing is crashing or failing, its just taking a long time to render when i dynamic link if i leave after effects open. Any help or feedback would be awesome, thanks!

I spoke with vidya sagar from tech support a few minutes ago to get an update on when, maybe this update to fix this problem will be rolled out. He told me he and his whole team is aware of the situation. He mentioned its a problem where ram between premiere and after effects isn't being balanced out enough and thats why premiere is taking so long to render out after effect compositions. With all do respect, I'm not trying to be a nag. Can you maybe give me a progress report on where the team is with fixing this related issue? Vidya said your the man to ask and that you're a very reliable resource to get information out of with problems such as this.

Restrict URL Access when linking from report

I have an application that will be a little like a wizard in that I need to control how users get to a form, so I would like to prevent them from being able to just going straight to that page and entering data into the form. I tried using various session state security options, including No URL Access, but that blows up when I try to link from a report to that form for editing purposes.
Is there some way I can link from the report if the target page restricts URL access, and can get a get a brief overview (or point me to some documentation) on the various branch types? I can't find a good explanation anywhere and I'm hoping that solves my problem.
thanks.

Hi,
1.
What about using an Authorization Scheme and then using Security of Page Attributes.
In fact it is schema of users, roles, and passwords.
2.
f?p=App:Page:Session:Request:Debug:ClearCache:itemNames:itemValues:PrinterFriendly
f?p=6000:6004:&SESSION.::NO:6003:MY_ITEM1,MY_ITEM2,MY_ITEM3:1234,,5678
This example:
* Runs page 6004 of application 6000 and use the current session ID
* Clears the current session's cache for items on page 6003
* Indicates debug information should be hidden (NO)
* Sets the value of MY_ITEM1 to 1234, sets the value of MY_ITEM2 to null
(indicated by the comma used as placeholder), and sets the value of MY_ITEM3 to 5678
- Into Column Attributes/Column Link/Link Text pick an icon.
- Select for Attributes/Column Link/Target “URL” for table Emp_Address and into URL field type:
javascript: popupURL('f?p=&APP_ID.: 6004:&SESSION…………');
You can use the value of any Item. Then in the URL link page check that item.
Moreover, you can use f?p=&APP_ID.: 6004:&SESSION…..My_Item:#ReportColumnName#.......
I hope this would help.

Dynamic link from Premiere CC 2014 to Audition CC 2014

When I dynamic link to audition and save and go back to premiere it saves my files to my
user folder instead of saving it to my project folder where I’m working from. I have not found a way to specify the folder to save back to. You would think it would save the file back to the folder where the original was.
And if I save them straight to my desired folder I have to import those files into premiere and relink them.
How can this be fixed… any ideas what to do?

Link from Report to Form in a Page

1. I have created a page in the Page Groups. I have five tabs on this page. Under a tab I have one Report added as a Portlet. This Report has a LINK to a From. When I click on the LINK the Form opens, but not in the Portlet area. Is it possible to have a Form open in the Portlet area (replacing the Report)?
2. I get the following error when trying to add one particular Report as a Portlet in a page:
An unexpected error has occurred in pages: wwpob_api_page.add_portlet (WWC-44847)
An unexpected error has occurred in portlet instances: wwpob_api_portlet_inst.create_inst (WWC-44846)
Do anyone have any ideas?

Doug wrote:
I am using version 4.0 of APEX. My question concerns linking to other APEX pages from a report. In APEX we link to another page, which may be a form or another report, by using a column in the report as a link column. Any column may be used to transfer values from any other column. This works fine, but the disadvantage is that whichever column is used as the link column has a heading which identifies the column's purpose but may not identify the purpose of the transition to another page. In Oracle Forms, we could use buttons as a column of the multi-row screen (i.e. same as APEX report), and the button's label identified the purpose for the transition.
Is there any way to create a column in an APEX report to serve the same purpose as the button in Oracle Forms?
When discussing "reports" it is essential to indicate whether this means a standard report or an interactive report in order to receive an appropriate response.
It is possible to create a link column that is distinct from report data columns. In standard reports, this is done using the Add Column Link option from the Tasks menu in the right sidebar of the Report Attributes page. In interactive reports, define a Link Column on the Report Attributes page.
To provide further information about links to users in both cases, specify an HTML title attribute for the link in the Link Attributes property of the link definition. This will be rendered as a tooltip when the cursor hovers over the link in visual browsers, and as an audio cue on navigation to the link when using a screen reader.

Dynamic link from premiere pro

Usually when i dynamic link to audition and save and go back to premiere it saves my files to my project folder im working from.
Something has changed and they save elsewhere, if I move the files to the project folder it stuffs up premiere wanting to reconnect everything..
And if I save them straight to my desired folder I have to import those files into premiere, frustrating me
Any ideas what I can do.?

I also need help with this. Whenever I dynamicly link is saves the new AA wav file next to where my PP proj file is. I don't want it to do this I want to save it to where all my media is. Is there really no way to tell audition to default save extracted audio from premiere to a certain location?.
The extracted WAV file is generated by Premiere, in this case, and Audition doesn't have any control over where it is saved. You can submit a feature request directly to Premiere by visiting https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

Dynamic link from premiere to speedgrade not working, constantly crashing

Hello,
please help me. I'm trying to color correct my video in Speedgrade (I'm not using 4k files).
When I try to send the project from Premiere CC to Speedgrade whit dynamic link, everything seems fine, except that when the project finishes to be downloaded from SG, it crashes.
And it's the same if I try to open a random video clip from inside SG. I open it, put it in the timeline, but when I click on Looks, it crashes.
All the videos I'm using are quicktime, h.264.
Thanks a lot

The Direct Link process should totally bypass Sg's preferences and "needs" as far as frame-rates & sizes & such not. But clearly this whole issue is affecting people with a variety of gear, and it doesn't seem to care if it's a newish or oldish video card. So they've a quirk in their code to deal with.
Not that Sg deals with framerates perfectly all the time ... I've been having a devil of a time the last couple weeks with any attempt to export an EDL into Sg from PrPro. Footage reads as 29.97 ... sequence is 29.97 ... and the EDL is 29.97. But Sg insists that the EDL is 30 fps ... and even though it's got that bit in the prefs to account for such things if there really IS a difference ... "if edl is x & footage is frame-rate above conform to rate below" and all ... haven't been able to get Sg to accept the EDL. It will play the first 5-6 seconds of each clip & then the monitor goes black and it says "Media out of range" ... funsies.
Given the number of times or reasons one might need an EDL approach in emergency situations ... or as I was and a number of others are still trapped into because of this bug ... I've been trying to figure this bugger out. Still trying ...

Dynamic Link from Premiere CS4

When I export Premiere to AE, the composition icon in AE but nothing else.No associated video files, etc. I double-click it or drag it into the timeline area - nothing happens. However, I am able import a Premiere project frm within AE and I can do all those things - but Dynamic Link is not involved. Can I link the two after the fact?

I don't really get what you are saying. For DynamicLink, you do not export anything, you open the saved Premiere Pro project using the DynamicLink option in the import dialog. Upon doing so, you will be prompted with what sequence to use and that's all. If you are referring to creating a AE comp from Premiere using Replace with AE Composition, then that's a different thing. In either case, however, the AE project must be saved in the same location as the Premiere project for things to show up properly.
