BIP Report access via URL in OBIEE

Experts, I want to access a BIP report via URL in OBIEE. Here are the details. I already have Answers request with 'Is Prompted' filters. I have a dashboard prompt. The request works according to the values given in the prompt. Say, the user gives some filter conditions in the prompt and the result returns 10 records.Now, due to some business requirements, I want the same result set(10 records) to be opened in a new window. For that we thought of using BIP and invoking this BIP report from OBIEE. Any ideas how can we accomplish this.
thx,
parag

I mean to say that....assume your first view might be pivot report,then you create a BIP report from answers and place the view just below the pivot view in the dashboard.
Globally you give those prompts ,so that when you give values....it applies to both the views in the dashboard.
Suggest the end user instead of pop up....you can view both views at a single instance :) .......Give a meaning full name for that BIP report according to what you want to achieve
=====================================================================
EDITED:
you can use go url for your pop-up .....but you need to pass the variable values of the prompt to the go-url so you can achieve your requirement.
let the end user pass dynamically any values multiple times but the same should be passed to the go-url to get what you want.
========================================================================
EDITED
I suppose YES we need to pass all the 5 prompt values to BIP report......if user gives 3 values then it filters on those 3 values and only 3 will be passed to BIP i suppose.
Never tried this passing 3 values and next session passing 2 values.....Play around with your requirement you will achieve it.
hope all questions are answered.Mark Points.

  • Auto Run off but report access via URL generates default

    Hi,
    We have BI Publisher 10.1.3.4.1. I access reports via URL from another application outside BI Publisher.
    For my reports, I have Auto Run disabled. Still Accessing the link via URL seems to generate report instead of waiting for user
    to enter parameters and click view.
    When I view report via BI Publisher, the behaviour is ok, i.e. it won't generate until I click the View button.
    Does anyone know how to make sure BI Publisher won't generate report without an explicit click of View button when invoked by URL.
    Thanks
    Girija

    Hi Tim,
    I am calling the report in _xmode=6 i.e. the parameters show and the view button shows.
    We want the user to be able to input their parameters and run the report.

  • KM Access via URL aborts with HTTP Error 403

    Dear experts,
    i am currently working on the following problem:
    - we want to use 'KM Deep Links' to documents (open documents via URL Access)
    - when people are authenticated they can use this deep links (no problem in this case)
    - when they are not authenticated -> HTTP Error 403 is displayed
         -> we want a login form to be displayed and after successful authentication the document is displayed
    - example:
         http://localhost:50000/irj/go/km/docs/documents//SAP%20Portal%20Documents/Members%20Area/Contracts%20_%20Guidelines/example.pdf
    This is our scenario:
    - Our Portal is a SAP Nw 7.0 with SP20
    - We run an External Facing Portal and therefore we have applied SAP Note 837898 (Standard Configuration in current SPS)
       -> URL Access to Documents to which Anonymous Users have access works fine
    - as a test we used the 'old Content Acess Path' mentioned in SAP Note 837898, which looks like this:
         http://localhost:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents//SAP%20Portal%20Documents/Members%20Area/Contracts%20_%20Guidelines/example.pdf
           - this access works as desired. Login Form is prompted and after authentication, the document is displayed. Problem here  is that this Content Access Path doesn't work with Anonymous Access to KM.
    So the goal is: Display Login form instead of this Error 403 Page. What configuration mistakes could we have done?
    With best regards,
    Marcus

    He tried a file extension other than txt or htm/html, and he still gets the error.
    He also tried fiddling with IE -- Internet Options -- Languages to remove extraneous languages, and he still gets the error.

  • Report calling via URL is it secure?

    Hi. Calling a report via URL exposes the uid/pwd. Is this a good way for secure communications?

    Hi Binoy,
    This is just one of the ways & is definitely not secure. There are other ways too - you could supply just the '@dbname' or 'username@dbname' in place of userid - the database authentication page will be brought up where you could provide the password. You could also make use of the keys that can be specified in ORACLE_HOME\reports\conf\cgicmd.dat. For specifying authid, you could use SSO.
    Please have a look at the Publishing Reports guide on OTN for a more detailed description of all available options.

  • Print BW report embedded via URL Iview

    Hi,
    We have a VC application which contains a BI report. In the VC we created a "Print" button which should print the entire contents of the VC Application. Unfortunately it seems this print is not compatible with the URL Iview since it ignores the content of the BI report.
    Is this normal ? Is there a workaround available in VC to print a BI Web application via the VC ?
    thanks

    Please let us know if there are any updates on this. I am also facing the same issue where I have a WAD report ( html link) in the VC model along with other reports in VC. The Print screen just prints the VC part and the WAD part comes as blank.

  • App malfunctions when accessed via URL but not when accessed in workspace

    I have an application that I have built at work. I have it on a test box. I have been using the app for several months with no problem. Because it is on the test box I am able to use the url to log into the app e.g. http://infotest.finone.bankone.net:7777/pls/htmldb/f?p=229
    Today I started having problems with the app not functioning properly for no apparent reason. A file browse upload process stopped uploading the files even though I got no error messages. Editable items stopped passing values to the next page when I click to edit something.
    The weird thing is when I log into my workspace on the test box and then launch the app from there everything works perfectly as before! I went in an deleted and purged all the sessions and then logged into the app via the url again and it worked for a minute then I had problems creep back up.
    This app is supposed to move to the production server soon. Any ideas why this weirdness is happening??!!

    Hi,
    As far as the file upload process...nothing happens and nothing appears in the Web Server Error Log at least not from what I see perhaps I am not looking in the right place. It's like as if the process just didn't actually activate or something although the page does in fact submit because the field values are cleared and the success message I coded in appears. So I know the page is submitted.
    The values being passed were actually part of the Wizard Form/Report on a Table. You click the Edit icon and it passes the value of the PK field to the subsequent field on the next page within the same session ID and fetches the appropriate row from the underlying table.
    So far not a single other person has had this happen to them. Today the app worked perfectly without any of these issues. Can there be local settings on my PC that are conflicting with the session state and other things on the Application? I log in and out of the app close to a 100 times a day, could this be clogging up session id's or something?
    Unfortunately its not consistently reproducible from the standpoint that today its not doing it all but when it was happening yesterday it certainly was consistent so at this point I don't know what to think.

  • Image loading via URL with resources in packages

    And another newbie-question:
    When I want to access local media-files (for example images) in a subdirectory, I can use a url to get a local path/filename. For example:
    url = getClass().getResource("/path/image-name.gif");
    image = getToolkit().getImage(url);
    Now I have packaged my classes including the subdirs containing the images in a jar file.
    package.jar
    |
    -- subdir (with images)
    |
    -- a.class
    |
    -- b.class
    |
    -- x.class
    Now the access via url doesn't seem to work any longer. When I subclass "a" outside the package (with correct import-statements, of course) and the constructor of "a" tries to access the images in "subdir" (invoking super()), it cannot find it and an exception occurs.
    Is this correct, or does the error lie maybe somewhere else?
    I had the impression that a jar-archive can be accessed like a directory? Have I to access the images in another way to get them working inside a package? When the classes and images are not packaged, all works fine.
    I work with Sun One, btw., and do mount the jar-archive as a filesystem...
    Any advise?
    Thanks in advance.

    Am I on the right way when using an URLClassLoader instead of getClass()?

  • Accessing discoverer via url.

    Accessing Discoverer via URL.
    Hi,
    I'm having a problem with the following....
    I am trying to setup a scheduler for generating discoverer reports, without using the discoverer scheduler. I want to be able to easily print them off in a particular location.
    This is fine for normal reports with simple url's but complicated url's are causing me a problem. I have created a java program which will build the url string from some set parameters using the URL class.
    Parameters include Responsibility, user name, password, workbook and the workbooks parameters.
    The problem is that discoverer will not allow the request asking the user to reenter his password. Even when a site check indicates that the url is exactly correct.
    I have even taken the generated url and cut and pasted it into the browser without success. I don't think it is a java issue but maybe how the system is setup.
    Any help would be useful!

    Hi
    You cannot embed the password on the java command line. This was determined to be a security breach because the password would have been in plain view. In order to make a URL work you need to be working with the full application server and be using either private or public connections, ideally with SSO enabled.
    All you do is run the report as usual from within Viewer when connected as the user you want to be connected as. You can then copy the URL from the address bar at the top of your browser and paste this into a new browser. If a public connection is being used without SSO the report will execute. If SSO is enabled then SSO authentication is required. If a private connection is being used without SSO then the password will be prompted, whereas if a private connection is being used and you are using SSO then the password will be remembered by SSO and supplied for the user.
    I hope this helps
    Best wishes

  • How to parse crystal report query prompt value via url parameters

    HI All,
    I am creating a employee detail report in crystal report. The recordset is huge and i have created a parameter prompts in the query and thinking to parse the prompt value via url parameters. Not sure why i still could not make it works.
    for example, in my query panel i have created a prompt called "pwwid"
    and this is how i parse the prompt value via open document url.
    OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sIDType=CUID&iDocID=AV8U6HlIq4FBl_MhcBwHqGI&lsSpwwid=12345678
    I read the sap documentation, this is how it parse the prompt value via url parameter. but it is not working for me and i am getting prompt to fill in the wwid whenever i run the reports.
    any idea why i am not getting this works?
    Regards,

  • Run XML Publisher Report  via URL (like Oracle Reports)

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to run xml-publisher report via URL?
    In Oracle Reports works this fine:
    http://test:7777/reports/rwservlet?server=test_bihome1&report=test1.rdf&userid=test/testv@db&desformat=pdf&destype=cache
    We need this for public reports without user login.
    Thanks
    Thomas

    Thomas,
    I was waiting to get home before Tim replied... He got the better of me this time :-)
    You say you want to let your users run reports using XMLP just by clicking on an URL same way you do with reports and without having to login. If I got the question right and assuming that:
    1.Your company is not overly concerned on who runs what reports
    2.Who sees what data
    3.Your XMLP installation is on your intranet and firewalled from the outside
    What you can do is:
    On the main page of your XMLP Enterprise installation you should see a folder called "Guest". Any report you create under this folder is run as user "guest" which means you don't have to authenticate yourself as you would normally do.
    I have tested this on my home server and this is what I've done:
    1.Logged in as admin or any other user you've created with admin privileges created a report under the "Guest" folder.
    2.Copied the URL, on my server it is "http://samba.private.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo"
    4.Logged off as admin and pasted the URL to a new browser window
    5.Hit return and Voila, my report runs without the need to login to XMLP.
    Hope this helps. Let us know how you got on.
    Cheers,
    Joao
    PS: If you want to see the report for yourself here's the URL from the outside: http://medeiros.homelinux.net:15101/xmlpserver/Guest/People/People.xdo
    I'll keep the link alive for a couple of days.

  • Link from OBIEE Report to BIP Report

    I have a requirement in which I need to Create a Report in OBIEE and the values used in the prompts to execute the report in OBIEE needs to be passed through a link to BIP and Execute BIP report for selcted parameters.
    The Report is working fine and I am able to pass the parameters from OBIEE to BIP but to make BIP Report function correctly. I have to apply same set of Parameters in BIP and they are visible in the header of the BIP Report.
    Now the Requirement is to hide those parameters from BIP Report and BIP Report should run for the selected parameters from OBIEE dashboard.. On doing this the values passed from OBIEE are not getting filltered in BIP report and BIP Report is running for all records. Is there an alternate way to achieve this?

    if you are on 11.1.1.6 version you can do it i think .
    check the link below
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25178_01/bi.1111/e22257/whatsnew.htm#CHDCDBCA
    Enhancements to Parameter Display Options
    Enhancements to parameter display options include:
    Support for radio button and check box display of values
    Parameters that are defined as a menu in the data model can now be configured to display the menu options as a list of radio buttons or check boxes. Parameters configured to support one value support the option to display as radio buttons. Parameters configured to support multiple values support the option to display as check boxes.
    New options for placement of parameters in the report viewer
    Previously the report viewer always displayed the parameters in a horizontal region across the top of the viewer. In this release the display of the parameter region can also be configured in one of the following ways:
    In a vertical region along the right side of the viewer
    As a dialog
    As a separate full page
    New report viewer action button to show or hide parameters
    This release adds an action button to the report viewer to enable users to hide or show the parameter region. This enhancement complements the new parameter display options. When report parameters are configured to display as a dialog or in a separate full page, the parameter display region is dismissed when the viewer displays the report. Use the Parameters button to redisplay the parameter region to make new selections.
    Search added to menus
    All parameter menus having more than a specified number of options provide a Search option. For more information, see Section 3.3.1.1, "The Parameter Search Dialog."
    Option to remove the Apply button
    Reports can now be configured to remove the parameter Apply button. In these reports the action of selecting a new parameter value automatically reruns the report.

  • Printing a report via URL

    Hey,
    is there any chance to get a report printout via an url call? We can get our reports via url as pdf, html, rtf and so on. In my mind there is no chance for a printout or perhaps email via url?
    I tested the delivery API as second way without some good results.
    thanks for help and ideas

    Hi Gael,
    your URL is made up of :
    [ProcedureName]?[parameter1]=[value1]&[parameter2]=[value2]
    creating URLs like this can have problems especially with spaces and punctuation.
    the answer is a FORM
    the following will create a hidden form :
    FORM ACTION="[ProcedureName]" METHOD="POST" name="F1"
    INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="[parameter1]" value="[value1]"
    INPUT type="HIDDEN" name="[parameter2]" value="[value2]"
    /FORM
    you can set the values in the form using:
    document.F1.[parameter1].value="abc123%%&&$$!";
    document.F1.submit();
    will submit the form and the PL/SQL procedure should receive the text as it was contained in the form.
    the only characters that can now cause problems are :
    " as it delimits the field.
    ' as it may cause problems in PL/SQL.
    \ as it is a special character.

  • Interactive report row-level ("OR") filter via URL?

    I know you can perform a column level filter on an Interactive Report via URL, but can you do a row level filter?
    I want to do something like where column 1 = 'test' OR column 2 = 'test', not column 1= 'test AND column 2 = 'test'.
    Thank you and apologies if I am missing something in the documentation or other forum messages.

    Jeff,
    Thanks again for the response and for looking into it. However, if I am not mistaken, the url in that excerpt does the same thing as the URL I posted except that you used IREQ_COLNAME instead of IR_COLNAME (which defaults to EQ I believe).
    I want to see if a value is in column a OR column b, etc. The "OR" is the all important caveat.
    I would settle for being able to pass a value to the IR's main search box (that searches all columns of all rows) if I cannot do a targeted row level filter on a few select columns.
    If anyone knows how to do either of those things, that would be great information to have.
    Thanks,
