      Hello Rolan!

      I was experimenting with the currency formats to try and solve your problem and may have found you a solution.

      First I learned that outputting Out tags and using the Excel built in Accounting formats worked, but only if my Out tag type was Number. This worked for me for USD, GBP, EUR, and AED.

      I also was able to use the built in Report Designer USD, GBP, and EUR formats to get my output. for AED I came up with the following custom format that seems to work: _("AED"* #,##0.00_);_("AED"* #,##0.00);_("AED"* "-"??_);_(@_)

      In the Format Data dialog under Custom try entering this format and see if this fixes your issue.

      I also entered a feature request for us to support the same formats supported by Excel in our formatting dialog. I have started the review process for this feature request and will update you as it is reviewed.

      Thank you!

        Hello again Joe!

        I did some experimentation in my local deployment of Report Designer with using the import tag to output the contents of a HTML file I developed using some of the functionality you mentioned. (This can also be done using data and an out tag). Please let me know if this was not the functionality you were speaking of.

        I have entered a feature request specifically mentioning the functionality you listed and started the review process. I will update this idea after we review the request.

          Hi Martin,

          Can you clarify where you would want to pass the parameter? We have discussed this internally and find 2 scenarios where this could be possible.

          1) The initial data source connection, you wish to filter the JSON URL based on the dynamic parameter passed in.

          2) Inside of a Windward tag IE, forEach, to return a result set based on the variable parameter passed in. IE, you wish to return a list of employees to iterate over based on the parameter you pass in.

          If you can give a little more detail or an example of how you want to use this JSON service URL with Windward, it would help greatly.
