just figured out a cool little reporting feature today that might end up helping somebody. On the reports homepage (‘report_home.do’) in Service-now.com, users have the ability to type filter text to restrict the types of reports that they see. So, if I wanted to see just those reports on the ‘Change request’ table, I could simply type ‘change request’ for my filter text as shown below…

Now for the cool part… This filter text can actually be passed over a URL as a parameter to automatically bring a user to a filtered report homepage view. This might be useful if you wanted to create a UI action on the change request table that brought the user to the change request reports when clicked for example.
The parameter is ‘sysparm_reportquery’ and is used like this in a URL…
