Introduction to View URL's

View URL’s can be copied from a View URL window that’s accessible from the left panel. You can copy the URL of any view in the left panel, and that URL can be used to build dashboards or shared with other users by email or in shared documents where you have pasted the URL.

Here’s an example of the View URL window.

Here is the URL for the view, which was copied from the View URL window.

http://server-abc:56701/ViewWindow.aspx?ViewId=416&IsHideViewFilter=false&IsHideViewImage=false&IsHideViewName=false&IsHideToolbar=false&IsHideExplorer=false

The URL includes the view Id, and syntax that tells the URL to run the view with the left panel hidden and these parts of the view displayed: the View Filter section, any image associated with the view if applicable, the view name, the view toolbar, and view explorer. For information about the syntax of a view URL and options for customizing it, see the topic Edit a View URL.
