I have an interactive grid in an APEX application, and one of the columns (header ATTACHMENT) has URLs that open in a new tab. However, as part of the functionality of an interactive grid, I am unable to edit the URL within this column. All the columns are editable, but since I changed this column to a 'Link' the user cannot edit it. I also tried single row view, but same.
Is this possible?
Thanks
See my interactive grid
How about specifying the same column (attachment) twice? One would be used for editing purposes, and another one as a link. Something like this:
select
id,
attachment edit_url,
'Link' link_url
from your_table
ID is the primary key column
EDIT_URL is a usual Text Field
LINK_URL is a Link column
its "Query only" property has to be set to "Yes"
"Escape special characters" set to "No"
When you run the page, it'll show 3 columns; EDIT_URL will be editable. Once you modify that column's value and save the changes, LINK_URL will reflect that change and - when you click the "Link" word in that column, it'll lead you to the modified URL.

I have an Interactive Grid with a really simple select list (two values only):
No
Submitted
This is an editable IG, when I click on my select list column the value automatically changes to 'No' (which is the one displayed first out of the two options) regardless of what I have on that row.
E.g.
This is row 1:
It had 'Submitted' as its value, but when I double clicked to edit, it automatically changed to 'No'.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thanks

I have created a Master-Detail page in my Oracle APEX application. Basically i have a list of rows from one table and I can add values to it though a form. That works correctly, validations also work (every column from Master form can be accessed by adding ":" in front and that works in this case). I also have an option to edit click pencil icon in front of every row which lets me to update current row and also displays the Detail part of that row. Detail part is a list of values from another table that is connected to the first one using foreign key (Master-Detail: one to many). It is automatically displayed as interactive grid, so when editing my Master table value I can also add new rows to Detail table, but the validations don't work for Detail table. I tried accessing it's columns the same way as before, but it just doesn't work (tried to add PL/SQL expression validation:
:column >= 0
but that didn't work. How can I enable the validation for interactive grid, because I've looked into some resources about it, but they just show the first way, that doesn't work for me?
For a validation on an Interactive Grid you need to set the attribute "Editable Region" for the validation to your interactive grid. That works ok for me. I tried with a Master Detail on Dept (Master) and Emp (Detail) with a validation on detail of :SAL > 1000
I am currently using Oracle Apex version 18.2.0.00.12 on Internet Explorer on a computer running Windows 10.
I am having a problem with downloading an Interactive Grid as a CSV file.
On my Apex page I have an interactive grid and three page items. Two of the page items, P200_DATE_FROM and P200_DATE_TO, are Date Picker items. The other item is a button named "Submit" and its action is "Submit Page".
This is the query for my interactive grid:
select * from kat_test
where repairdate between :P200_DATE_FROM and :P200_DATE_TO;
There are four columns in the Interactive Grid:
Issue - Varchar2
Month - Number
Week - Number
Repairdate - Date
The only settings I changed in the Interactive Grid are the title and the SQL query.
I changed the Source of P200_DATE_FROM to PL/SQL Expression that returns the first day of the current month. It is set to be used "Only when the current value in session state is null". The expression is:
trunc(last_day(sysdate)-1, 'mm')
I changed the Source of P200_DATE_TO PL/SQL Expression that returns the current date. It is also set to be used "Only when the current value in session state is null". The expression is:
sysdate
When I run the page, it loads exactly as expected in the sense that the P200_DATE_FROM page item is populated with the first date of the current month, the P200_DATE_TO item is populated with the current date, and the interactive grid displays the correct data.
The problem: When I select Actions -> Download -> CSV, the CSV file downloads and opens as an Excel file, BUT only the header names are displayed. The cells underneath the headers are all empty. However, if I change one of the dates (or both) in the P200_DATE_FROM page item and/or the P200_DATE_TO page item and then press the submit button, the page is submitted and then when I click Actions -> Download -> CSV, the Excel file opens and all of the data is displayed perfectly (both the column headers and the data underneath the headers).
I don't understand why when I initially load the page, the CSV file for the Interactive Grid does not download correctly, but after I click the submit button the CSV file does download correctly.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
I think you just need to put the name of these items in the field "Items to submit" next to your SQL. When it downloads, I think it reprocesses SQL using the values of the items that are in the session. If you do not put those items there, the values do not go to the session. Enter the item names separated by a comma. After that, I think any changes is necessary in your SQL
Report's query, probably, contains a WHERE clause which looks like this:
where some_date between :P200_DATE_FROM and :P200_DATE_TO
Modify it so that includes NVL function whose second parameter reflects items' default values, i.e.
where some_date between nvl(:P200_DATE_FROM, trunc(last_day(sysdate)-1, 'mm'))
and nvl(:P200_DATE_TO, sysdate)
Run the page, download CSV; any improvement?
I have one web table, in this I want to delete particular record by clicking on record's delete button.
I got the value of row but I am not able to perform click on web button of particular row and also there is 2 buttons in one column.
How to click on delete icon of particular row?
You need to set a reference to the item within the specific row and then click on it - something like this:
Set oLink = Browser("myBrowser").Page("myPage").WebTable("myTable").ChildItem(iRow,8,"Link",0)
oLink.Click
You will potentially need to amend the "Link" and the number 8 in your own code. iRow represents the row you are trying to interact with.
Essentially what this code does is set an object reference to the first item of type "Link", in column 8 of the table, then uses a Click event to select it. If your delete icon is a WebButton, then replace "Link" with "WebButton" for example. The final 0 in the command tells UFT to select the first element matching the object type - you might need 1 if your two icons are in the same column of the table.
Let me know if that helped.
I currently have a master detail form within my APEX application which should show two columns, one of which should be the primary key.
However, it appears that my primary key column has been replaced with the "edit" button/column, which I also want to keep. When I try and edit the attributes for the primary key column, changing the "display as" option appears to have no effect, and the edit button remains.
Currently my form looks like this:
And the column attributes look like this:
And ideally, I would like an additional column to this, but with the primary key values after the edit button.
I imagine there's something very simple which I'm missing!
The edit link properties come from attributes within the column. If you click on the pencil in your second image, that will show column attributes. Look for "Action" attributes that describe the link to another page. The "Link Text" will be referencing the edit icon. You could replace this with #COPYID# to show the primary key value as a link. Or you could add another column "copyid as copyid_dsp" to show both.
