WEBI URL Encoding Help

Former Member
0 Kudos

BO 4.2 ...

I am building a webi report on top of universe.

I have dimension called "Attachment" which contains the link to the PDF documents stored somewhere on server.

"File://\\invoice1.pdf"

"File://\\invoice2.pdf"

I am just doing read content as hyperlink to open them from WEBI.

Now, some the links contain spaces and special characters which gives me error while opening them.

How can I solve this issue? I tried to apply "URL ENCODE"

= urlencode(attachment) function which removed the spaces and special charters but the output is no longer hyperlink. If I click on the the cell nothing happens.

If I export it to excel and do = Hyperlink(encodeurl(AD13),"test") it works.
