Description

When users interact with an analysis on the Web Player, their personalized sessions are remembered by default. This means the active page, filter settings, property settings, etc., will be remembered and applied to the analysis the next time the user opens the report in the Web Player. This behavior is enabled or disabled with the following option as set in the TIBCO Professional Client:
  •     File > Document Properties > Library Tab > Remember personalized view for each Web Player user (Note: this is under the Edit menu in version 7.14 and lower)

You can force the Web Player not to apply the remembered user's session state by appending '&applyState=false' to the URL used to open the report. This is useful for troubleshooting issues or if a report will not open on the Web Player for particular users.

Issue/Introduction

How to disable the application of a user's personalized session state when opening analysis in the TIBCO Spotfire Web Player.

Resolution

For example, if the URL for accessing the analysis in the Web Player is:
  • http://mySpotfireServer/spotfire/wp/analysis?file=/Reports/MyReport
append '&applyState=false' and the report will open just as it was saved to the Library:
  • http://mySpotfireServer/spotfire/wp/analysis?file=/Reports/MyReport&applyState=false
If you repeatedly see this issue, then please contact TIBCO Spotfire Support at https://support.tibco.com.
