Open the SAC home page in the current browser tab
The easiest way to test this script is to add it in a button.
Add your tenant name & ID to the script
If you want the home page to open in a new browser tab, just change the parameter ‘false‘ to ‘true‘
NavigationUtils.openUrl("https://YOUR-TENANT-NAME.sapanalytics.cloud/sap/
fpa/ui/tenants/TENANT-ID/app.html#/home",false);Code language: PHP (php)Using a URL with dynamic Tenant & ID
This is useful if you’re transporting stories between tenants and want the home url opened to be the one the story is currently being viewed in.
var HomeURL = NavigationUtils.createApplicationUrl(Application.getInfo().id);
NavigationUtils.openUrl(HomeURL.slice(0,HomeURL.lastIndexOf("/sap/fpa/ui/")
+12).concat("app.html#;view_id=home"),false);
Code language: JavaScript (javascript)Script breakdown and explanation
- First we retrieve the current URL of the current SAC story
var HomeURL = NavigationUtils.createApplicationUrl(Application.getInfo().id);
This outputs the full URL path of the story we’re currently viewing:
https://basic-trial-sac-eu10.cfapps.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fpa/ui/tenants/b2329/bo/application/7AE09D80EE7FB1FEF34922AFF9DC3FB7?mode=present
Next, we need to split out parts of the HomeURL to generate the final link to the SAC tenant home page.
NavigationUtils.openUrl(HomeURL.slice(0,HomeURL.lastIndexOf(“/sap/fpa/ui/”)+12).concat(“app.html#;view_id=home”),false);
HomeURL.lastIndexOf(“/sap/fpa/ui/”) + 12
This part of the code finds the position where the string “/sap/fpa/ui/” appears in the HomeURL.
Why +12?
“/sap/fpa/ui/” is 12 characters long, adding 12 ensures the slice includes the entire “/sap/fpa/ui/” path.
HomeURL.slice(0, HomeURL.lastIndexOf(“/sap/fpa/ui/”) + 12)
This extracts only the part of the URL up to and including “/sap/fpa/ui/” e.g.
https://basic-trial-sac-eu10.cfapps.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fpa/ui/
concat(“app.html#;view_id=home”)
This appends “app.html#;view_id=home” to the sliced URL, creating the final URL below:
>> https://basic-trial-sac-eu10.cfapps.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fpa/ui/app.html#/home
,false);
This final part of the script tells the browser whether to open the link in a new browser tab, or the current one. true = new tab false = current tab
