2. FAQ

Q: When can my DingTalk organization try the new 3.0 report? The 3.0 report is fully available. It applies to reports newly created in newly built apps. Q: Do existing apps support the new report version? No. YiDA currently supports “cross-app data retrieval” for reports. You do not need to modify old apps—their forms remain usable—but you can retrieve data from an old app in a new app and build reports there. Q: When creating a DataV dashboard, can DingTalk accounts be linked with Alibaba Cloud accounts? Account linking is not supported in the current version. However, you can use the app secret to authorize access to YiDA form data. Q: What is a view table? A view table is a feature upgrade of the existing “multi-table association” capability in reports. It is more powerful, and the generated view table serves as an independent dataset that can be reused across different reports in the same app, improving efficiency. Q: How do I upgrade report 2.0 to 3.0? Direct upgrade is not supported. You must create a new YiDA app to use the 3.0 report features. Alternatively, refer to the cross-app data retrieval solution. Q: Why does the report fail to sync data when the form has values? This happens because a field was added but the version was not updated. Manually edit and save the data, or call the /v1/form/updateFormData.json API with useLatestVersion=y to force the data to update to the latest version. Note that data updated by business association rules does not currently update the form version. Q: Why can’t I select a dataset? Check whether the dataset form has more than 300 fields. Too many form fields will affect the API response time when the report references the dataset. Q: The form location component locates a municipality, but it cannot be displayed on the report side. Why? For data produced by the form’s location/address component, municipalities (at the same level as provinces) are stored without the “City” suffix—for example, “北京” instead of “北京市”. However, the China map component in reports displays down to the province level and requires an exact match on the province name, which must include the “市” suffix. Because the values do not match the data produced by the form, they cannot be rendered. As a workaround, use the report casewhen Formula, or process the data in Data Preparation to append “市” so that it can be rendered. Q: Does Chinese sorting in report 2.0 follow the GBK character set? YiDA report Chinese sorting is based on ASCII order.

Grouped Questions

Q: Data Permissions issue in the report When the report dataset selects a subform, it is not currently restricted by the View Permission of the source Table. The data management page correctly displays the restricted data. Q: Is there a limit on page permission groups within an app? How many permission groups can be configured at most? For all pages other than workflow forms and regular forms, you can create up to 100 permission groups. For workflow forms and regular forms, you can create up to 100 Submit permission groups and 100 View Permission groups respectively. Q: What does the filter error [Reminder: Engine filter error: Data execution error: Statement cancelled due to client request] mean? This error appears when a report query takes longer than 30 seconds. We recommend optimizing your query conditions.
