I don't like it when functionality gets removed from an application. Especially something as obvious as linking to external systems using a URL. Why can't there just be a globe with a link icon in PerformancePoint Dashboard Designer, like Windows Live Writer?
Debugging Filter Links with Web Page Reports
Often when hooking up and testing dashboard filter links you may find the need to see precisely what value is being passed by that filter link. This becomes particularly urgent if you just can't figure out why things in your dashboard are not functioning the way you expect them to.
A few months ago the PPS team put out this post about using web page reports to mimic the absent OverridingURL functionality that used to exist in BSM. It is this technique that I have adapted to create a simple debug page to display the values a filter link passes across to other dashboard items.
