Canvas Copy Generate Post URL

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I'm Using kibana 7.5.2 via ECE and trying to create a watcher job to send out the pdf of my workpad. When I go to copy the post url it will only return https://domain.com:/api/reporting/generate/printablePdf with no parameters. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong or if this is a bug?

Steps to reproduce
Create new workpad via a template, modify the report, validate the pdf sharing feature works ( it does ), then try and create a watcher item with the URL. This process will fail as watcher has no idea what report it should be running.

What should a proper post URL look like for a workpad? Perhaps i can try and generate the url myself based on asset/report ID's etc.
Thanks

Do you see any errors in your browser's dev console?

Here is what a valid reporting URL would look like for Canvas, just in case you need to try that as a workaround. It should be possible to just swap out the title and workpad ID.

http://domain.com/api/reporting/generate/printablePdf?jobParams=(browserTimezone:America%2FPhoenix,layout:(dimensions:(height:720,width:1280),id:preserve_layout),objectType:'canvas%20workpad',relativeUrls:!(%2Fapp%2Fcanvas%23%2Fexport%2Fworkpad%2Fpdf%2Fworkpad-ad72a4e9-b422-480c-be6d-a64a0b79541d%2Fpage%2F1),title:'%5BLogs%5D%20Web%20Traffic')

Refused to execute inline script because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src 'unsafe-eval' 'self'". Either the 'unsafe-inline' keyword, a hash ('sha256-SbBSU7MfZFnVMq4PuE/jbBz7pPIfXUTYDrdHl7Ckchc='), or a nonce ('nonce-...') is required to enable inline execution.

This is the only error on the workpad page. I've tried disabling ublock in both FF and Chrome. This error is displayed in both browsers.

I can reproduce this behavior by creating a new workpad based off of a template kibana provided template.

Thanks

Hi @Rob_wylde

This is indeed a bug that exists in 7.5.2 and should be fixed in the upcoming 7.6 release

Like Bargs mentioned though, you should be able to replace the ID and title from that url as a workaround
