Share Links (iOS)

Links to stories, Digital Boardroom presentations, and analytic applications opened on a mobile device automatically launch the SAP Analytics Cloud mobile app and go
directly to that content. For example, let's say you receive an email on your mobile device with a story link. To open the story directly:

1. Tap the link in your email. Your mobile browser opens, prompting you to log on.

2. Log on with your SAP Analytics Cloud credentials.

3. Tap OK when promoted by the message Do you want to open with the Mobile App?.

4. Tap Open when prompted by the message Open this page in "Analytics"?.

You can send links to a colleague from the mobile app by tapping in a story, presentation, or analytic application:

You can also copy the URL when viewing a story in the SAP Analytics Cloud web application by choosing Share Story .

Another way to share is to swipe left on an entry in the Home or Files tabs and tap on the Share option.

Accessing Content Shared using App Links on Android

You can access content on Android devices using App links sent through email or shared with you through the Share functionality in SAP Analytics Cloud.

 Note
When using an Android device, you cannot access content when it is shared from the iOS app. Only links containing the following domains are currently supported:

This is custom documentation. For more information, please visit SAP Help Portal. 60
 2/12/25, 2:49 AM
*.sapbusinessobjects.cloud

*.sapanalytics.cloud

Customized links are not supported for App links on the Android device.

1. Tap on the app link.

You are prompted to choose which app you want to use to open the link. You can choose either the (Android)Analytics app, or any supported browsers.

2. If you selected to use the Analytics app:

Please provide your password if the app is not launched.

After your credentials are confirmed, the shared content is displayed.

3. If you opted to open the link using a listed browser, the shared content will display after the browser is launched.

Share Custom URL Scheme Links (iOS)

If you are a content designer or administrator, you can embed story, Digital Boardroom, and analytic application deep links into content that uses the SAP Analytics Cloud
mobile app's custom URL scheme. The mobile app is opened directly from this link, without the extra confirmations and dialogs your users encounter with a normal browser
link. The custom URL scheme for a story looks like this:

sap-analytics-cloud://<customerdomain>.<region>.<domain>/?type=story&id=<storyID>

 Note
These links work only on an iOS mobile device.

For example: sap-analytics-cloud://mycompany.us1.sapanalytics.cloud/?type=story&id=DBF65A20A0FE24AE11F0B2BA75375J95

When you establish a deep link for the mobile app into other applications, these links can be used to pass prompt parameters, page indexes, and filters.

You can also open Digital Boardroom presentations directly by changing the type parameter to type

For analytic applications change the type parameter to appBuilding.
