OBIEE 11g integration with sharepoint or any with any other webserver possibilities
HI All,
Can we integrate OBIEE 11g Analysis and dashboards to SharePoint server ? If yes could you help us guiding in right way of implementing this request. Any kind of help on this is highly appreciated.
Can we use existing Weblogic web server to build some internal web applications. (Work flow tools)
Maker checker application:
We have Ops users which they send the daily reports to Traders for approval. Based on the approvals, end of day data will be reload into DB for Month end reporting. Reports are generating from OBIEE 11g.
Thanks,
Pavan

OBIEE 11g - Integrating via external corporate website to OBIEE
Hi all -
Unusual challenge, our we offer a hosted application (SaaS) where our users are authenticated on our application. Recently, we've invested in OBIEE 11g and have successfully deployed recommended Oracle Enterprise Deployment. We have a custom security solution (user permissions in Oracle tables, not LDAP), and have not implemented Oracle Identity Mgmt and don't plan to.
We would like to use GoURL / Action Framework to access Report content, dashboard content, content as port lets embedded in an app dashboard to an iFrame.
My Question: can we configure OBIEE to accept just "username" without password in a trusted login scenario? we are trying not to expose password in URL (encrypted or clear text).
We done an exhaustive search to review GoUrl, web service / soap calls, reviewing impersonator passcode techniques (everyone having same pad in initialization block), etc.
Thank you in advance for your most needed responses,There is a good post that lead me on the way to solving this problem here:
http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2010/07/obiee-remove-whole-portalbanner.html
The code he posts won't work for 11g, but it's close.
Paste this code into a text box on each page of your dashboard, make sure you check the box that says "contains HTML"
<script type="text/javascript">
var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('table');
for (var td = 0; td < tds.length; td++) {
if (tds[td].className != 'HeaderTopBar' && tds[td].className != 'HeaderSecondBar' ) {
continue;
if (tds[td].className == 'HeaderTopBar') {
//alert (tds[td].className);
var x = tds[td].parentNode;
//alert (x.className);
x.removeChild(tds[td]);}
if (tds[td].className == 'HeaderSecondBar') {
//alert (tds[td].className);
var x = tds[td].parentNode;
//alert (x.className);
x.removeChild(tds[td]);}
</script> -
Passing filters to hyperlinks in BI Publisher-Obiee 11g integrated report
Hi,
I've a report requirement to build a BIP report in integration with OBIEE.
In my dashboard, I've a dashboard prompt, obiee reports and a BIP report.
BIP report contains hyperlinks (created in template builder) which direct me to the obiee report pages.
Now, when u apply the prompts, BIP report filters the data accordingly and displays it in the same page. (OBIEE reports also gets filtered accordingly).
After this, when I click on the hyperlinks it takes me to the obiee page which is NOT filtered according to the prompt.
So I would like to know how do I use the filters in these links?
Can I please get some help on how to make this work? This is an urgent requirement!
Thanks,Hi,
You can try these steps
On the BI Publisher 11.1.1.5, Go to Administration --> System Maintenance --> Server Configuration. Under the catalog heading,Test Connection. If the connection is successful, then click on the button Upload to Bi Presentation Catalog".
After the above step you should be able to see your folder under catalog.
Let me know if this helped.

Issues with less than and grater than condition in prompts in OBIEE 11g,
Hi all,
i am facing the prombles with less than grater than conditions in OBIEE 11g.
i created two date prompts with presentation variables datefrom and dateto
and i used these prompts in fileters like this using grater than and less than symbol.
filters are as below:
lastupdated date is grater than or equal to @{datefrom}{1/1/1950}
lastupdated date is less than or equal to @{dateto){1/1/1950}
and created two prompts
creation datefrom >=
creation dateto<=
when i passing the dates 05/12/2004 and 05/12/2005 in prompts after clicking the apply button in OBIEE 11g it feches all the records but i need records between these dates. and one more thing is after clicking apply button the two date fields getting the same date..
am i do any thing wrong in the above ???
please let me know friends..
waiting for ur replyyyyyy..
Thanks

Create date prompts with operator as = not >= (or) <= as you need to save that value in presentation variable and you are filtering report using those variable filters.

Integrating Mapviewer and OBIEE 11G
Hi all,
I am unable to get a map to be displayed in an answers report.
I have imported Layers, Background Maps and images into Answers under the Administration - Manage Map Data
In there I am able to display a map from the menu options Edit Background map.
However when adding a map view to answers report I get the following error:
View Display Error
A basemap is required to render a map. Please ensure that atleast one basemap is defined in the spatial meta-data
Error Details
Error Codes: EMGUNIA3
Location: saw.views.evc.activate, saw.httpserver.processrequest, saw.rpc.server.responder, saw.rpc.server, saw.rpc.server.handleConnection, saw.rpc.server.dispatch, saw.threadpool, saw.threadpool, saw.threads
If anybody have a working integration, please let me know what I am missing.
Regards,
Hakanon Presentation OBIEE 11g , you need to integrate MapViewer with OBIEE11g :
* when you Build Themes (Layers) using Map Builder, don't forget to add Info Columns .
Example : in Region Table , Region_ID, Name , Description
once you do that, keep in note when you add this theme (layer) in Presentation (OBIEE11g) on Administration-->Map Management --> Manage Map Data ---> Layers .. Then Add your Theme (Layer).
* Double Click your Layer (Theme) and click ( +) icon to add New BI Key , these BI Keys are same columns you added in Map Builder Info Columns (Region_ID, Name, Description) you should add them serialized exactly like how you did it in Map Builder info columns which mean don't add (Name,Region_ID,Description) ... that will may unable to view map properly.
this step above you keep adding it each Subject Areas one by one if need for map, once you finish doing this, this mean you integrate Mapviewer with OBIEE11g...
don't forget to add at lease one measure in your answer to view map properly , so that you can add PIE, BAR charts or Color Schemes...
good luck -

Hi PinkRuby,
There are some good videos on the MSDN site that give a general overview of developing on the SharePoint platform.

Another good resource is PluralSight. You need a paid subscription (though it's not much), but it has lot's of great video content for learning.

Hi
I have few doubts in regard to BI Publisher in OBIEE 11G. Here they goes
1) Is it required to install BI Publisher separately or is it already provided integrated in fusion middleware in OBIEE 11G.
2) What is the process to integrate BI Publisher with OBIEE 11G.
Please help by providing answers to the above queries.
Thanks.user8654742 wrote:

2) What is the process to integrate BI Publisher with OBIEE 11G.As far as the OBIEE 11g Integration with BI Publisher 11g, it comes with basic integration like navigation to BI publisher form OBIEE analytics. Share the same security model etc. If you can elaborate your question here, it would help me answer it correctly.

Configration of LDAP in OBIEE 11g
Hi All,
Client has asked me to de the LDAP configuration. I will be doing first time. I have gone through the different posts the information is enough to do the same.
But i have one question on this. It might be funny for all of you :-) but it keep meaning for me.
There are few parameter need to be passed while configuration.
Base DN: Generally we give the value like. (CN=Users,DC=venkatad,DC=venkatlap,DC=com) , My question here is: The value for CN and DC will be provided from the client(or any specific value) or we can put any thing.
Bind DN: (CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=venkatad,DC=venkatlap,DC=com) here also my questing is same.
Bind password: is it generic? or any LDAP server releted?
port: 389 (Default LDAP port without SSL) 389 is the default, without SSL. So here my question is: If there is SSL then what would be the value for Port no.
And lastly could you please let me know what are the different parameters i need to ask from the client for LDAP authentication configuration.
Regards
NirajHi,
Refer the below
Reuired info from LDAP team:
1) LDAP server Host name and Platform(OS Type)
2) LDAP Server IP
3) LDAP Server Port no
4) User Path structure (Object )

my group info got it from LDAP team
GROUP:
CN=deva,OU=SG,OU=OBIEE,OU=Groups,DC=reg9,DC=Hex1,DC=OPM,DC=com
5) Group Path Structure (Object)
like e.x: (Path : Functional usergroup)
6) Access required for our functional ID: deva

Security question in obiee 11g
Hi,
I have a question on security configuration on what we have in 10 and deploying to 11g.
Q1. how deploy external database security(users, groups) to OBIEE 11g.
we used external database security in 10g. all the users and groups maintained in database and obiee rpd has security groups. repository has group information only so it is deployed groups information to obiee 11g by upgrade assistant but how can it deploy users in external database?
Q2. all the users and roles in LDAP server. in this case how obiee 11g read users and group information?
Thanks

Q2. all the users and roles in LDAP server. in this case how obiee 11g read users and group information?
Obiee11g is intergated with weblogic fusion middleware (Console,EM). in that console have feature to enable mulitiple LDAP authentication
while configuring AD via weblogic console we need to give the users and group info

Obiee 11g and custom j2ee app using the same cookie name
Hi,
I wrote a same j2ee web application. i'am using authentification through a realm configured in the web.xml.
This web app is deployed in the same weblogic than obiee 11g. What i want to do is to embed my application in a dashboard using an iframe tag, and use the same login from analytics to my custom web app.
In this article http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11035_01/wls100/security/thin_client.html#wp1039551, it is said that by default, all web apps in the sames weblogic server are using the same cookie name so that they share authentification between them. However, i have read in the web that analytics in obiee 11g is using a cookie with the name "ORA_BIPS_NQID".
In the weblogic.xml of my custom application, i set the cookie-name parameter to ORA_BIPS_NQID. However, in the dashbord, it still prompt for authentification to my custom web app.
How can we share authentification between analytics and a custom web app in the same weblogic ?
NB : I dont want to pass the username et password through the url.
Thanks.By default, if you don't specify a cookie-name in the weblogic.xml configuration file, the weblogic server create a cookie named JSESSIONID for your application. For exemple, if two applications use the default configuration, both of them will use the same cookie name which is JSESSIONID. In this case, when you log in the first application, your are automaticaly logged in the second application with the same credentials. I have already test this kind of integration and it works perfectly. You only need that the two applications are deployed in the same weblogic server.
Now, i want to have the same behaviour between obiee 11g and my custom application deployed in the same weblogic server. I read somewhere in the web that obiee 11g presentation service (analytics) is configured with a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID". So in the weblogic.xml configuration file of my web app, i specify a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID" to have the same cookie-name between the two application. But, it still not work. It prompt for authentification in the dashboards.
I now, that such an integration is possible, because the other bi applications (mapviewer, bipublisher,...) are actually other web applications. However when using, for exemple, maps in dashbords, the mapviwer application automaticaly user the credentials of the user connected in analytics. -

JHi,
Try to check sawlog0 and nqserver.log latest error message? is your BI- LDAP working previously or fresh configuration error?
Note: It dosn't matter whether it's win 7 or windows xp. i am sure some wrong in ldap or Make sure your DEV_BIPLATFORM/DEV_MDS Schema password locked/expired if yes try to unlock it then test it out.

Customize Filter View in OBIEE 11g
Hi,
Is there any way to customize the filter view? My requirement is not to show formulas that are used in Analysis in the “Filter view”. All analysis that we create should go with Filter Views at the bottom and Users should not see the formulas.
Example:
Column Formula:
FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’)
If I filter the above column, it shows something like this:
FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’) is Prompted.
What is need to show in the filters is the Title of the column i.e. Electronics Sales.
Thanks in advance.Check this

Hi every one,
Recently i came across term collaboration in obiee 11g.
I searched for it and could not find any information on it.
Is it a new feature in obiee 11g or some thing else?
If any one have any additional information or links where i can find some information please pass it on.I think it basically means that OBIEE provides the functionality to work together with other people, like for example, all the power users that belongs to financial group can have their own folder within shared folders, and create analysis and share with each other by saving them to that folder. This functionality provides the users to collobarate with each other to acheive whatever is needed by sharing /working with each other.
