The Unity Client configuration file contains several settings that relate to Reporting Dashboards. Settings in the Unity Client configuration file allow you to enable the Copy Hyperlink and Send To | Clipboard (as Shortcut) options.

In order to enable the Copy Hyperlink and Send To | Clipboard (as Shortcut) options, the Unity Client configuration file may need to be updated.

To enable hyperlink/shortcut copying:

  1. Locate the obunity.exe.config file. This file is at the same location as the Unity Client executable.
  2. Open the file in a plain-text editor, such as Notepad. Do not open the config file in a binary-text editor, such as Microsoft Word. Binary-text editors can introduce invalid characters to the configuration file that can cause unexpected errors when users access the Unity Client.
    Note:

    When Windows UAC is enabled, the plain-text editor must be launched with elevated administrator privileges in order to enable the config file to be edited. To enable editing, right-click the text editor executable or a shortcut to it and select Run as administrator.

  3. Locate the emailLinkAs key under the appSettings element and change the value of the value attribute to one of the following:

    • upop or upop-file: If the dashboard is only going to be accessed directly from the link using the Unity Client. For complete details on configuring Unity Pop (upop or upop-file) links, see the Unity Client module reference guide.

    • weblink: If the dashboard is going to be accessed directly from the link using a Web browser, including mobile Web browsers. This type of link requires the optional Reporting Dashboards Web Viewer (see About the Reporting Web Viewer).

  4. Save and close the configuration file.
