URL Variables

If you use an external CRM or you would like to create links to reports, you can create custom variables in the report URLs to inject into the report constraints. For example, say you want to dynamically create links for your sales team to show the history of a particular user who does a particular action.

In this example, you can first create the report and use it as a template for your links. I created a new Activity Report and copied the link and saved the report.

Once I have the link, I can edit the URL and add custom variables that I can use in the filtering of the report.

In this example, I want to create a link with two variables: 'var.email' and 'var.report'. The link will look something like this:

https://app.woopra.com/project/woopra.com/activity/njsino4cl0?var.email=&var.report=

The part I added to the link is {?var.email=&var.report=}. You must name the variables in this format {var.name=} which the {var.} is needed before the variable name. Once you're done editing the URL, go to the URL you've created in your browser. You can now select the variables in your report filters.

Finally, I can now inject any values into those links and the report will automatically filter on the variables. For example, I could dynamically create links in my CRM for my sales team so they don't have to manually configure the report.

https://app.woopra.com/project/woopra.com/activity/[email protected]&var.report=trends

Now, when I go to this link, I can see the report is using the values for the custom variables.
