The SAS Visual Analytics Embed page now covers mapping report parameters to
DC columns from the URL, which the name-based match cannot do for two report
objects filtering the same column from differently-named parameters.
- new "Mapping parameters to columns" section: the `va_parmap` grammar, the
lower-case example, what overrides what, and the rules that matter to a
report author (last-hyphen split, label-then-name key matching, one parameter
to one column, no fallback to the name match)
- the warning banner is documented next to it, including that a parameter is
ignored rather than filtered on the wrong column
- the `?embed=` table now shows the Filter button per mode, so it is explicit
that `embed=true` keeps Data Controller's own filter builder while `embed=va`
hands filtering to the report
browser_info and browser_url_vars were only described inside the troubleshooting
page, under Support Diagnostics. That is the right place to find them if you
already know they exist and are looking for a log line; it is not where anyone
looks when writing a hook, which is what they are mostly for.
The new Developer Guide page carries the whole subject: which services receive
the two tables, the column lists, the debug values per platform and the MPEINIT
log lines, reading them from a hook with the exist() guard, and the reminder that
they are client-supplied and so diagnostics rather than a security boundary.
Troubleshooting keeps three stub headings - browser_info, browser_url_vars,
reading-them-from-a-hook - pointing at the page, so the anchors that are already
published keep resolving, and the detail is not maintained twice.
Linked from the three places a hook author actually starts: the HOOK Scripts
section of the MPE_TABLES page, the pre-edit hook guide (where the editor's
inputs are listed), the two-rule-sets guide (post-edit hook), and the VA embed
page, where embed=va is exactly the kind of thing a hook wants to branch on.
