The following provides additional information about related contents when selecting Include Related Content in Static Book HTML and PDF in the Book Editor.
If this property is set to true, when the Static Book HTML output is generated, any related content links found in the Reports in the Book is followed:
When a Related Content link is followed, the URL in the link is examined.
If the URL refers to a Report or Snapshot Report which resides in the current repository, that Report is executed and the results are included in the Static Book HTML output. If the Report is a Snapshot Report, it is loaded from the repository and included. When the Report is executed, the POV of the cell which contained the Related Content link is used. This behaves the same as if the user were to click the link manually.
