KB39871: Constructing URL API to run a Report Services document and define a different default selection for an attribute element selector in MicroStrategy Web

• Strategy

The following example demonstrates how to construct URL API to run a Report Services document with different default selection for attribute element selector in MicroStrategy Web.

** The following URL API request (to set default selectors) is only possible with a single selector. At this time, URL API does not support setting more then 1 selector's default value. **
The following example demonstrates how to construct URL API to run a Report Services document with different default selection for attribute element selector in Strategy Web 9.4.x-10.x:


(.NET Version) http://<web server>:port/MicroStrategy/asp/Main.aspx?
(JSP Version) http://<web server>:port/MicroStrategy/servlet/mstrWeb?
 
&evt=2048001  
&src=Main.aspx.2048001
&documentID=F7ED3B8A4C338BFDDEF1458C91A0F9C2
&evt=2048084
&src=Main.aspx.rwd.rwframe.rwb.2048084
&ctlKey=W64
&elemList=h2;8D679D3711D3E4981000E787EC6DE8A4
&usePartDisplay=1
¤tIncludeState=true
&applyNow=1
&evtorder=2048001%2c2048084
&2048084=1
&2048001=1

NOTE:
Two events are executed using URL API in this example. Refer to the following section in Strategy Developer Zone (MSDZ) to understand how to execute multiple events using the URL API:
https://www2.microstrategy.com/producthelp/Current/WebSDK/Content/topics/urlapi/Executing_Multiple_Events_Using_the_URL_API.htm

The parameters below are required to execute a document:


&evt=2048001
&src=Main.aspx.2048001
&documentID=

The parameters below are required to set default selection for attribute element selector:


&evt=2048084
&src=Main.aspx.rwd.rwframe.rwb.2048084
&ctlKey=
&elemList=
&usePartDisplay=
¤tIncludeState=
&applyNow=

The parameters below are use to determine the execution order when using multiple events:


&evtorder=2048001%2c2048084
&2048084=1
&2048001=1

NOTE: Refer to the following technical note to understand how to find ctlKey and element list of each selector:
