How do I share an article from Factiva?

Answer

If you've found something in the Factiva database, and want to send the url to someone, there are a couple of steps necessary.

  1. On the results screen, right click on the title of the article you want to share and copy the hyperlink.

  2. You will need to edit the hyperlink you just copied. Below is an example url. Delete everything after the letters "fcpil"

    https://global-factiva-com.rmc.idm.oclc.org/du/article.aspx/?accessionno=BSTNGB0020201210egca000up&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=&cat=a

  3. Your url should end with an ampersand (&). Copy the following line of text and paste it to the end after that ampersand:

    xsid=S003cbsYXmnNdmnNTamN9apN96s5DByWa3w3DB94cj0WErBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUEA

  4. For this example, the final url will look like this:

    https://global-factiva-com.rmc.idm.oclc.org/du/article.aspx/?accessionno=BSTNGB0020201210egca000up&xsid=S003cbsYXmnNdmnNTamN9apN96s5DByWa3w3DB94cj0WErBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQUFBQ
