Reports - How to open in a new window
Hello Community!
I have a Form that contains a "Reference" link, to show a list of projects. This list is a Report, but users have the issue that this report sometimes opens in the same window and hence, they lose everything they already typed in the Form.
My question is: is there any parameter that I can include in the URL in order to force the report to always open in a new window?
Note: I can not add a code. The way the link is included in the Form doesn't allow to add any code. So, it has to be a parameter in the URL.
Thanks!

I'm not aware of a way to force the URL to open in a new tab.
What I would do in this instance isembed both the Formand theReportin aDashboard, thenpublish the Dashboardand provide this as the "form link" instead!
That way the reference Report will always be open near the form so your users can see both at the same time (perhaps by scrolling down the Dashboard), meaning they won't lose any progress while filling out the form. Let me know if this makes sense and will work for you!
Cheers,
Genevieve
