How do I use the Faceted Search on Oracle Apex with a interactive report instead of a classic report?

726 Views Asked by At

What I want to accomplish in Oracle APEX: I want to be able to use the faceted search with the ability to hide/show columns on the report, and then also be able to select records in the report so that I can manipulate them how I want to.

I can select the records with a classic report using JavaScript/PLSQL , or use the interactive report, but as far as I know you can't use a Interactive report with the faceted search. I'm fine with using the classic report, but I want to be able to hide/show columns (similarly to the action button).Action button on Interactive Report

How can I either:

  • Use a interactive Report Instead of a classic report
  • Use a Classic report with the same/similar Action button
  • Or accomplish something similar?

Or where can I find a relevant resource to help me?

I tried changing the classic report to a interactive report, but then the faceted search says it's Invalid Faceted Search source section in the page designer

Faceted search is only possible out-of-the-box with Classic Reports or Cards region.

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/apex/23.1/htmdb/creating-a-faceted-search-manually.html#GUID-88226F4A-2971-447D-A267-1B7E37E9946D

When you use the Create Page Wizard the only option is "Diplay as" Report or Card.

But you can try a more custom approach like this: https://blogs.oracle.com/apex/post/add-a-chart-to-your-faceted-search-page
