Ctools - cde dashboard - issue in parameter passing

[Ashwin]

Hi Experts,

I'm trying to send two parameters from Dashboard 1 to dashboard 2, dashboards were created using Pentaho cde: 

'url'+'?Param1='+abc'&?Param2='+123

I'm trying to get the Parameters using two custom Parameters in using below functions for each within Javascript code:

Custom Parameter1:

Param1 = Dashboards.getQueryParameter("Param1");

Custom Parameter2:

Param2 = Dashboards.getQueryParameter("Param2");

But i'm able to get the values only for Param1 but not for Param2. Please suggest way to resolve the issue.

Thanks,

[Benoit Hericher]

Drop the '?' before Param2 in the ur l:

'url'+'?Param1='+abc'&?Param2='+123

this should be :

'url'+'?Param1='+abc'&Param2='+123

I have tried dropping '?' before Param2 and sending the parameter. But still not able to receive Param2 at Dashboard2. Any changes required to be done at Dashboard 2 as well?

Try to put the value (123) between quotes in the url . You will have to convert it back to integer in your dashboard2

Is this using CTools?
In CTools, parameters are encapsulated in the URL inside a stringfied JSON. If you don't know how it looks like, I'd suggest you create a CDE dashboard with a couple of parameters, set some default values over there and make sure to tick the property "bookmarkable". Once you start using the dashboard, if you change the parameters, the JSON line with the parameters will show up in the URL if at least one of them is not using it's default value.

That should be what you need.. if I got your question right

Cheers,

Thanks a lot Benoit and Pedro for your valuable inputs. I got the solution, changed the parameter to 'Custom Parameter' in source dashboard as well and added code to post the parameter in java script code
