Sharing Microsoft Livelabs Pivot current view using URL

Microsoft LiveLabs Pivot users can share the URL with the filters they applied and the view selected on their Pivot. All these applied filters are stored in the URL as query string.

1. You can see the full URL in Pivot by pressing CTRL+ALT+U anytime.
2. You can open Pivot using command line with -showfulluri option.

In Silverlight Pivot Viewer,
1. There is a Property called ViewerState, which gives the current view with applied filters and view.
This viewerstate can be used while loading the collection to go that view directly.

pivotViewer.LoadCollection("http://MyServer/MyCollection.cxml", viewerState);
