Format Option | Description |
---|---|
Text | Displays as plain text. |
Action button | Allows you to create an action button linked to a URL. You can pass the value of the returned data into a URL link. Use double hashes ## to indicate where you want the column value to be placed in the url itself. Click here for additional settings related to this formatter. For example, the system will replace the ## in the following link with the column value, and initiate a Google search on it. http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=## Note: This formatter is similar to the ‘Link to URL’ formatter. |
Case Formatter | Allows you to format text as Uppercase or Lowercase. |
Creates a hyperlink on the text that will open an email client and pre-populate the sent to address. | |
Email Salutation | This field will be used as the email salutation when broadcasting using a report as a recipient list. |
Flag Formatter | If your data contains ISO country codes you can display these as flags of the world instead of text. |
HTML | Formats a field containing HTML tags, either by removing them, or using them, depending on user selection. For example, if you wanted to display an image using a URL the field may look something like this: |
HTML 5 Video | Displays a video from a path stored in the field, either a full URL, or a relative path if the video is stored in the Yellowfin ROOT directory. |
Image Link Formatter | When a field contains a URL to an image file, choosing this option displays the image rather than the URL, effectively providing images within reports. |
Link To URL | Allows you to pass the value of the returned data into a URL link. This essentially means that every ip address will be placed into it into it i.e.: http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=10.100.32.44 |
Reference Code | Converts the text in the cell to the value of an internal lookup table. E.g. AU to Australia. See Reference Codes for more information. |
Sparkline Formatter | Allows you to create a single sparkline column or column chart within the report table. Click here for additional settings related to this formatter. Tip: You may use this in conjunction with the Sparkline Array advanced function, or any text field that contains comma separated numeric values. For example, you may create a calculated field with multiple values gathered from different metrics or dimensions to create a sparkline chart, as long as they are comma separated. |
Raw Formatter | Displayed the data as it would have been returned from the database – no additional formatting applied. |
URL Hyperlink | Creates a hyperlink on the text and will open web page on click. Assumes the text is a legitimate URL. |
YouTube Formatter | This displays a YouTube video, based on the ID being stored in the field. |

Option | Description |
---|---|
URL | Define the URL to use, including ## to be replaced by the field value. You can also reference other columns of data in the table by using the {{1}} syntax, where ‘1’ is the position of the column appearing in the report table. Note that the position numbering starts from‘1’ rather than ‘0’. |
URL type | Specify whether the URL points to something external (Remote) or internal (Local) in the system. |
Apply URL Encoding | Enable this option to apply URL encoding used for special characters (such as %20 for a space) to the field values. Note that this applies to the entire URL, so this may break URLs if they contain symbols because symbols would inadvertently be replaced with encoded values too. Disable this option if you wish to leave field values in their original format. This is recommended for URLs that contain symbols so that they remain as symbols instead. |
New window | Allows you to open the URL in a new browser window when enabled. |
Button display text | Enter the text to be displayed on the action button. |
Disable button on click | Specify whether the button should be disabled or not when clicked. |
Use data values to disable button | The button will become disabled by specified data values in a given column. |
Status field | Enter the column number from disabled values will be sourced. |
Disabled values | No action button will be displayed for these values, a completed status button will be displayed instead. |
Inactive display | Choose how the button should be displayed for inactive status. You can choose to display a blank cell, a success icon, or an inactive button. |
