Problem
When I open a link to a structure, I can see the following error message:
Perspective with id xxxxxxxxx does not exist
Solution
The error message indicates that:
-
The used link is a perspective link. It’s not a direct URL of a structure that appears in the browser (you can recognize both by their formats: direct URLs of structures end with
.../StructureBoard.jspa?s=xxxand perspective links end with.../StructureBoard.jspa?p=xxxxxxxxxx). A perspective allows to share a specific structure in a specific state, including its major elements: the placed focus, expanded and collapsed levels of the hierarchy, the used columns, and the applied transformations. A perspective link opens a structure in the exact same state as it was when the link was created. You can find out more details about this functionality in our documentation: https://help.tempo.io/structure-dc/latest/sharing-a-perspective -
The perspective in question had expired. By default, all created perspectives exist for 30 days. This parameter can be extended in Structure Maintenance. If needed, perspectives can last forever; this doesn’t have any significant effect on the performance or on anything else.
