Simplifying AI factsheet links in IBM OpenPage

While working with an IBM Business Partner on watsonx.governance, I encountered a requirement to shorten the AI factsheet hyperlink displayed in IBM OpenPages, a platform for governance, risk, and compliance (GRC).

Why shorten the link?

The default AI factsheet URL was long and unreadable. A shorter, more meaningful hyperlink would improve clarity and usability.

Roadblocks

• The link is auto-generated and synced from the AI Factsheet, so we can’t modify it directly.
• The view cannot be updated to display the shorter text hyperlink instead of the full-length URL for the LINK field.

Workaround

Since OpenPages supports rich text format (RTF) fields, we could generate the AI factsheet link within OpenPages and display it as a clean, user-friendly hyperlink.

Steps

1. Create a custom field:

   1. In the OpenPages Use Case Object, create a field named AI Factsheet Link.
   2. Set the data type to Simple String and the display type to Rich Text format.

2. Create a calculation to generate the AI factsheet Link.

   

   

3. Add Operations to the calculation.

   1. Set AI factsheet base URL:

      https://<hostname>/aigov/modelinventory/inventories

      Copy codeCopied!

   2. Extract Inventory ID (Catalog ID) and External ID (AIF Use Case ID) from the Use Case Object.

   3. Compute the AI factsheet use case link:

      <a href=[$AIF Base URL$]/[$Catalog Id$]/aiusecase/[$AIF Use Case ID$] target=_blank > [$AIF Use Case ID$] </a>

      Copy codeCopied!

      

4. Update the use case view to display the AI Factsheet Link field instead of the Third Party Link field.

   

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can easily generate and display a custom, shortened AI factsheet link in OpenPages. This approach uses OpenPages' rich text capabilities to create a cleaner, more user-friendly hyperlink.
