Moving Content Sub-Folders Doesn't Move Views

Jason Kaczmarek shared this problem 6 years ago
Defect Fixed

If I move a content sub-folder from one parent folder to another, the reports move accordingly, but the views do not. When this is done, you also loose the ability to edit the views. The workaround is to undo the move, create a new folder, and then move each view individually. (v7.4.6)

Hi Jason,

yes, in fact this is a known issue - a defect (YFN-12056) was raised just last month for it.

Your workaround is the best workaround I could find via the UI. And just in case you're interested, you can also do it via the backend with the following query because you'll find that the view that didn't move actually has the correct subfolder in its metadata but the incorrect parent folder: 

UPDATE ReportView 
SET ContentCategoryCode = '<insert parent folder here>'
WHERE viewDescription = '<insert view name here>'

N.B. the parent folder name must be in the upper case.


And then you must refresh the Yellowfin local cache for this modification to take effect, by either using the info_cache_enhanced.jsp and clicking the Refresh View Cache button as described in this Knowledge Base article, or restart Yellowfin.

regards,

David
