Copying URLs


Items in the library such as analysis files have a unique URL. By copying this URL and pasting it into a web browser, you can open that file in TIBCO Spotfire or perhaps save the file to disk.

Also, if you have web client access to your library, a second URL is available for each analysis file. By copying this to a web browser, the analysis will be opened in the Spotfire web client running in your web browser.

  1. Click an analysis file to select it in the Library Administration window.

    Response: Under the Link to Selected Item heading,  a URL is displayed.

  2. Right-click the URL and select Copy.

  3. Open a web browser and paste the URL into the address field.

    Response: The analysis is opened in a new instance of TIBCO Spotfire.

  1. Click an analysis file to select it in the Library Administration window.

    Response: Under the Link to Selected Item heading, a Web client URL is displayed.

  2. Right-click the Web client URL and select Copy.

  3. Open a web browser and paste the URL into the address field.

    Response: The analysis is opened in the Spotfire web client.

If you want to send a link to a larger audience where you do not know whether they have access to TIBCO Spotfire Analyst or just a web client, you can use a link to a redirect page instead.

  1. Right-click an analysis file or information link in the Library Administration window.

  2. Select Copy Link to Analysis > Link that Lets the Recipients Choose Client from the pop-up menu.

    Response: A URL leading to a redirect page is copied to your clipboard. Here, each user can select whether to open the analysis in the Windows client, a web client or to Download the analysis file.
