Opening Information Links from Information Designer 


Once defined, information links are normally opened by selecting File > Open From > Library.... However, you can also open information links from within Information Designer. This can be useful while creating the information link, or if you need to make some minor adjustments to the original information link.

  1. Create a new information link or edit an existing link (see Modifying an Information Link).

    Comment: You can also right-click in the Elements tree and select Open Data... from the pop-up menu.

  2. Click Open Data.

    Response: The query is executed, and the data is shown in TIBCO Spotfire. If the information link includes prompted filters, one or more dialogs will appear before the data is loaded. See Using Prompts for details.
