Common URL Patterns Open Current Document in Current Project https://server/polarion/risksheet/view
No parameters needed if accessing from within a Polarion document context.
Open Specific Document https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=Safety&document=FMEA/SystemFailures
View Historical Revision https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=Safety&document=FMEA/SystemFailures&revision=20250101_120000
When viewing a historical revision:
The RISKSHEET displays in read-only mode
All editing is disabled
No save button appears
The document state reflects the point in time of that revision
Compare Two Revisions (Side-by-Side Diff) https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=Safety&document=FMEA/SystemFailures&revision=20250210_120000&comparingTo=20250101_000000
Comparison mode shows:
Added items : Green background (new in current revision)Removed items : Red background (deleted in baseline)Modified items : Yellow background (changed properties)Unchanged items : Normal display (no changes)
Load Specific Saved View https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=Safety&document=FMEA/SystemFailures&view=Risk%20Assessment
The saved view named “Risk Assessment” displays on load, showing only its configured columns.
Deep Link with Search https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=Safety&document=FMEA/SystemFailures&search=severity%3DCritical
Filters displayed items based on the search query on load.
URL State Flow Diagram Revision IDs in Polarion use timestamps:
Position Value Description 1-4 YYYY Year (4 digits) 5-6 MM Month (01-12) 7-8 DD Day (01-31) 10-11 HH Hours (00-23) 12-13 MM Minutes (00-59) 14-15 SS Seconds (00-59)
Example: 20250210_120000 = February 10, 2025 at 12:00:00
Example: 20250210_120000 = February 10, 2025 at 12:00:00
Comparison Mode Behavior Visual Indicators State Color CSS Class Meaning Added Green comparison-addedItem exists in current but not baseline Removed Red comparison-removedItem exists in baseline but not current Modified Yellow comparison-modifiedItem properties changed Unchanged Normal — No changes between versions
User Actions in Comparison Mode Action Allowed? Notes Edit cells No All cells are read-only in comparison mode Create rows No Cannot add new items while comparing Delete rows No Cannot remove items while comparing Toggle ‘Show Unchanged’ Yes Filter to see only changed items Exit comparison Yes Click comparison toolbar button to exit
When exiting comparison mode, the URL parameter comparingTo is removed. The RISKSHEET returns to normal editing mode for the current revision.
Read-Only Mode Triggers The RISKSHEET automatically enters read-only mode when:
Viewing a historical revision : ?revision=<pastDate> (not current revision)Configuration specifies readonly : "readonly": true in configUser lacks edit permissions : Polarion permission checkComparison mode active : ?comparingTo=<baseline>Document is locked/approved : Workflow state prevents edits
Sharing and Bookmarking Share Current State Copy the current URL from the browser address bar:
https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=MyProject&document=MyFolder/MyRisksheet&view=Risk%20Assessment
This URL preserves:
Project and document
Selected saved view
Current scroll/selection (via focus parameter, if supported)
Share a Specific Revision https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=MyProject&document=MyFolder/MyRisksheet&revision=20250101_000000
Recipients can review historical state without worrying about concurrent edits.
Share a Comparison https://server/polarion/risksheet/view?project=MyProject&document=MyFolder/MyRisksheet&revision=20250210_000000&comparingTo=20250101_000000
Recipients see the exact differences between two revisions.
API URL Construction The RISKSHEET internally constructs API URLs based on parameters:
Use URL Template Example Data fetch /api/v2/projects/<project>/risks/<document>/api/v2/projects/MyProject/risks/FMEA%2FSystemRevision data /api/v2/projects/<project>/risks/<document>?rev=<revision>...?rev=20250101_000000Comparison query /api/v2/projects/<project>/risks/<document>/comparison?baseline=<comparingTo>...?baseline=20250101_000000
Special Parameters Debug Parameter Enables debug logging in the browser console. Useful for troubleshooting:
Configuration loading
Data fetch errors
Query execution
Editor behavior
Embedded/IFrame Mode When RISKSHEET is embedded in a Polarion page via iframe, parameters are passed through the iframe src attribute:
< iframe src = "/polarion/risksheet/view?project=MyProject&document=MyDoc" ></ iframe >
Browser Compatibility Browser Version Support Notes Chrome 90+ Full URL length limit ~2000 chars Firefox 88+ Full URL length limit ~2000 chars Safari 14+ Full URL length limit ~2000 chars Edge 90+ Full URL length limit ~2000 chars IE 11 — None Not supported
Browser URL length limits are approximately 2000 characters. Complex queries with many filter criteria may exceed this. Use URL shortener services or bookmark complex RISKSHEET states instead.
