how to go to a specific folder directly from jasper server community edition main menu bar custom menu item

I added new menu for main menu bar in Jasper Server Community Edition.then I want to set a direct link for my custom folders in that custom menu items.

When I go to two folders URL is same for both.It is also equal to Repository URL that I shown below as common url.

common url is :- http://localhost:8080/jasperserver/flow.html?_flowId=searchFlow

How can I find folder specific url in jasper server?

Solution

  • Although not documented, the samples in the Repository HTTP API use the folderUri URL parameter for navigating inside repository folders: 

    http://<host>:<port>/<context>/flow.html?_flowId=searchFlow&folderUri=/public/Samples/Reports

    I have tried this in latest JasperReports Server(v7.1) and it works properly.

    One important thing I have noticed is that the value for this parameter is case-sensitive. You could obtain the right value by performing these steps:

    1. Right-click the Repository folder for which you need the path
    2. Select the Properties... option
    3. Copy the Path value from the pop-up dialog
