PI90952: CUSTOM URL NOT WORKING WHEN USING OBJREF IN 11.0.7 AND 11.0.8

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Creating a URL following the objRef format in the document below
  does not work.
  
  Following the same structure, pathRef does work, however objRef
  will just take you back to the homepage.
  
  This link works
  https://cognosnext.bi.ibmcloud.com/bi/?pathRef=.public_folders%2
  FSamples%2FReports%2FGlobal+sales
  
  This link does not work
  https://cognosnext.bi.ibmcloud.com/bi/?objRef=i8CF8D0A8A7FE48128
  181DC3970510246
  
  If you were to put in the perspective into the objRef URL it
  will then work.
  
  This is not stated in the example URL in the documentation.
  

Local fix

• Add perspective into the URL
