Hyperlinks to Reports from Outside of Clarity

    Is it possible to create/post a hyperlink (to a report that runs in Clarity) on a site external from Clarity? I would like to add a link to a frequently-used report on an internal SharePoint site. The idea is to make it convenient for users logged into Clarity to jump to a specific report that resides in Clarity.

    Just copy the URL to the link.

    If the user is not logged into Clarity with an open session login screen will open first.

    How do I determine the URL that is specific to the report? The closest URL I can find will get me to the Advanced Reporting. However, it does not open a report.

    OK, what posted is for Clarity reports. You are after Jaspersoft reports. That I do not know. Sorry.

    To be more specific, I am looking to create a link to a Jaspersoft report.

    Try this
    Go to Advanced reporting

    Go to reports View List

    Pick your report from the list and right click.

    Select Run in New tab.


    Copy the URL

    Martti,
    This does provide me with a URL! The problem that I have to resolve now is that, even when logged into Clarity, it jumps me to a Clarity login screen. Because we use single-sign-on, I do not know the password for this specific screen. I will work on that with my Admins.

    Just wondering again...
    If Clarity is set to use external authentication for a user is it still going to accept regular login?

    Take a look at the code examples for HTML portlets in the following links.
    You should be able to construct the url using them as reference.

    Pratyush, thank you for the links!

    It looks like, in order to accomplish this, I need to have a copy of the existing report. I will check with the governance team to determine if this is acceptable.
    I would like to use a SharePoint link to select the report from the user's open Clarity instance. This, specifically, does not appear to be possible.
