I'm trying to embed multiple items into a (new version) google site that take a parameter from another embed.
Is there any way to do this in new (not classic) google sites?
For more background:
We have one Tableau workbook that includes parameters the user can select. These selected parameters drive a handful of other unrelated Tableau workbooks and SSRS reports, all of which need to be on the same page.
It doesn't matter whether the user can select their parameters on the first page and then get driven to a second page with all the additional workbooks or whether the workbooks are all on the same page.
New Google Sites insert content from other site feature requires a URL but at this time there is no way to take a parameter from another inserted content.
As usual there is no official documentation on the official help about not available features. The related help article is Add text, images, & other content.

Can I share an analysis file with another user by using the build in notification system as well as sending an email to the user both done programmatically (e.g. using the JavaScript API or IronPython or C# APIs) and not using the UI interface of Spotfire WebPlayer? I have looked online as well as the official Spotfire documentation but I was unable to find if that is possible.
To better illustrate the problem, consider the following scenario:
We have 2 websites. The 1st website has a map and a query builder, the user builds the query and then goes to a second website by pressing on a link. The 2nd website has 2 pages. The 1st page is the landing page. The landing page then retrieves all of the library items (using web services) from the user's folder (each user has one). The user can click on any of those links and gets taken to the second page that has Spotfire loaded in it which loads the selected library item/analysis file.
Back on the landing page, we are trying to add a "sharing" functionality which will allow the "current" user to select a few library items (i.e. links) and then type in a user's email (for example) and press share). Can that be achieved programmatically as we do not have Spotfire in that 1st page?
Note: the user gets automatically signed in (using a custom auth logic) when switching from site 1 to site 2.
I have a document library in SharePoint 2010 that several different teams are using for the same purpose. Each team has their own page that has a filtered view of the document library on it. The document library also has custom columns.
The issue I am running into is when a team member uploads a document from their page. They click "Add document" from their page, and then they browse to the document they want to upload. This part works perfectly - and the URL specifies the source as the team's page. However, after a user selects the document and clicks "OK", it takes them to the EditForm.aspx page that allows the user to fill in the meta data for the document. This is fine, but now the source URL specifies a view from inside of the document library, and no longer points to the team's page (where they came from).
Does anyone know how I can change this source URL to point to the team's page instead of the document library? Or, does anyone know a workaround for this issue so that a user can upload a document from a page (with document library web part on it) so that it returns to the page?
Thanks!!
SharePoint 2010 should work the way you want out-of-the-box. I tried to reproduce your situation, but was unable to. What I did was set up a library with one custom column and two custom views. I then created two pages, one with a list form web part using one view and one with a list form web part with the other view.
When I click on the Add Document from either page, a modal dialog window opens to the Upload page. I first select the file (Upload.aspx) and then am redirected to the metadata properties (EditForm.aspx). After filling out the metadata, the dialog window closes, and the page behind it (the page we were originally on) refreshes to show the new document in the web part. So the user experience is that they stay on the page they want while adding the document as desired.
If you edit your question or provide comments with more details on your situation we can try to reproduce it, but the functionality you describe is exactly how it is supposed to work out-of-the-box.
Peter's correct - SharePoint's being SharePoint.
If I am reading this right, it may be that you should simply check out in-line editing. Using a view, you and edit the properties dynamically without leaving the page (each team getting their own view).
Alternately, I see many who simply want to redirect users back to the page they came from either edit or view of an item regardless of where that was (a link, etc.). Simplest way to do that is a little programming by adding a button to the forms replacing the OK/Cancel with your own code. Simply edit the forms using InfoPath to add the new buttons - you have the user context if you need to custom redirect to a team home page or some such.
Using Google Apps Script, how can I accomplish the same as "Insert" -> "Document" within the Google Sites Editor?
Using GAS, I can obtain the URL and/or the ID of a document, but I cannot create the equivalent of an embedded Google Document within a Google Site Page.
I have been able to insert an <iframe>, but that assumes that the document has been published as a web-document.
I can copy the html from an existing page and using replace() substitute a different ID, but that only appears to work if the original page gadget has borders and title turned on.
I think the approach you mentioned should work. Have a 'template' page with a dummy Google Document inserted in it and then use Apps Script to replace the dummy with your document. Can you put in some code around the replace you have.
I've tested the API of Google to interact with Google doc (Calendar, Spreadsheet, etc) and everything runs correctly. However, I wonder if there is a framework that implements some model in HTML or an other web format to publish/visualize a calendar or a spreadsheet within a web page. My goal is to integrate a spreadsheet/calendar into a web page and then a user can modify the values of this spreadsheet/calendar.
Does it exist something similar to my request?
For spreadsheets, the Google answer Publishing: Embedding a spreadsheet in your blog or webpage explains what you have to do. Especially the last sentence is important:
If you want to embed a form in a
website or blog, click the More
Actions button at the top of the
editor, and select the 'Embed' option
from the drop-down menu.
But don't forget all the steps listed above this.
For Google Calendar, there's Embed on your Website - Google Calendar, another answer from Google, that even contains a slideshow that shows what you have to do.
Can someone give me some directions on how to setup SharePoint Search Center so I can get results from the list and that they have some custom (modified) link?
I have Forms authentication (and anonymous access) enabled with alternate access mapping.
Right now in the Default zone I get results from the data in lists and they all point to the AllItems.aspx. If try search from the Internet zone I don't get any results from the lists and I am guessing that this is because of some security settings. But if make them to show how will I customize resulting link so that list items are shown with some publishing page.
For example if I keep news in the News list and when I do search I want to get result with link in following format
http://somesite/Pages/News.aspx?itemId=12
where the itemID is he id of the news item.
Can I customize link in the result ?
You can customize the result link using the Core Search Results web part. It is all in the XSL which is available if you modify the shared properties of the web part.
The problem is that this page is meant to show search results of all types including documents in SharePoint, files potentially outside of SharePoint, web pages, business data, etc.
You may want to have a custom search results page that uses a specific scope or managed property query such that you can be sure the results will be list items. This can probably be done without any coding (if you don't consider XSL coding) and you could still use the Core Search Results web part.
Another option may be similar, but use the Data Form/View web part (through SharePoint Designer) or the Content Query Web Part (Publishing Infrastructure feature required).
