Saved Searches allow for some native options for drilling down into results data through grouping fields. If we summarize fields by group and then click the field link, we should be redirected to a summarized view of our saved search. If we want more unique data in our drill-down, we can create dynamic links on the parent saved search.
To create a formulaic drill-down in a saved search, should be to create a couple of searches based on the required result. The first Search(summary search) will be the primary search and will eventually contain the drill-down link. The second search will be the drill-down search and will contain all the required information without summary type on result.
To build the link between the two searches, we need to know the URL of the Search #2. This is why we added the Internal ID filter to the second search for filtering. For example, this link will take you to search#2:
We are going to work to replace 183 & 2339 in our example with the ID we need.
Heading back to the Search #1, we can now add this link to the search as a formula(text) column using some html. We need to inject the Internal ID from the search#2 of this link. To inject field data in HTML tags in a Formula(text) field we simply need to enclose the field id in single quotes and double pipes ‘||{internalid}||’
If you click the link on the first row the summary search#1, Search #2 were opened according to the filter. This filtered Saved Search shows only the result based on the filter criteria.
