Refresh Report Region Using Dynamic Action Example in Oracle Apex

Here I have two regions on my page; one is the search region, and the other is a report region based on the EMP table.

In the search region, I have the following items:

  1. P2_EMPNO (Text Item)
  2. B_SEARCH (Button)

In the report region, I have added the following where clause:

empno = nvl(:p2_empno, empno)

And then I set to Page Items to Submit to P2_EMPNO. Below is the screenshot of the above settings:

Then for the B_SEARCH button, go to the Behaviour section and set the Action to Defined by Dynamic Action.

Now create a Dynamic Action for the button B_SEARCH with the setting shown in the below images:
