Copy dashboard page

Hi,
How to copy a dashboard page,. I'e 4 pages in my dashboard, i just need to copy one of the pages into same dashboard.
Thanks,
Malli

If you are using OBIEE 11g then click on the "Catalog" link in the global header.
From there navigate to the dashboard folder you wish to copy from and click on that folder. The right-pane will show the dashboard pages.
Click on More > Copy
Then go to the dashboard folder you wish to have this new page pasted. Navigate through the folder structure click on the folder in question and from the item icons under the folder table (left of the location label that shows the folder path) click the "Paste" icon.
Done.
Cheers,
Christian

Copying the page of a dashboard

Experts,
Is there any way of copying a page directly without creating a new page and designing the same stuff on the copied page again?
parag

yes you can do it.
Using Catalog Manager:
Go to _portal* of the Dashboard Folder: Ex: If it is Sample Sales then, go to _portal* of Sample Sales folder.
Here you'll see list of Dashboards created using this folder. Click on the folder for the page you are looking for under that dashboard. Just do copy and paste stuff.
Manually:
Dashboard pages will be under the following path (example for Sample Sales):
*{BIInstallDir}:\OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root\shared\sample+sales\_portal* then copy that page and ATR or AS/2 files of that page resp.
Note: If you are doing this across the instances, you also need to copy the Requests and Prompts that are referred in that page.

Copy of a Dashboard Page

Hi,
Is it possible to make a copy of a dashboard page within a dashboard? Basically, I am trying to duplicate a page within the dashboard. Please let me know if someone has a solution to this problem.
Thanks

Hi
-> Using catalog manager, you first copy the page you want and Use Smart Rename (fix refs) give the trailing space for this page
-> Now paste the copied page in the same folder that you want to paste.
-> These two pages will appear like have same name ;) but there is white space at end of name for one page.
-> It's not possible to paste directly without changing the name, even if you try that will replace the original page which is no use.
Thanks & Regards

How to send a dashboard page as selection with ibot

Hi,
I am trying to send a dashboard page via email, but with a previous selection I have done through prompts.
This is what I have done:
1.Created the selection and saved as "Generic"
2.Selection is saved in my user OBIUSER under /users/obiuser/_selections/hj0qcjg2ln00aro9
3.I copied "Generic" from the above folder to a folder XY under the SHARED folder where I have some other dashboard stored.
4.When I am in Delviery content , choose "select content" and browse in the XY folder, but I see only the dashboard pages and not the selection "Generic"
The reason, I have copied it, is that from the delivery content session, I can not see my user, but just the SHARED folder.
Do I maybe need to create a _selections folder under the SHARED one and save it there?
Thanks and Regards
Giuliano

The article describes that when you have a saved selection for a dashboard page and you set this saved selection as default, the iBot will use this saved selection to filter the data on the dashboard page.
So, unfortunately, there is no option to select the saved selection you want to use for a dashboard.

Hi,
http://www.scribd.com/doc/25775853/Page-Drop-Down
Please download js script above link.
You have a few options to embed the code:
1) You can embed it manually into each page of a dashboard that you want the dropdown. This fast if there is only a small number of pages. But it can be tedious if there are a lot of pages.
2) You can edit the dashboardtemplates.xml file and find a place to inject the script. This would be optimal since it would globally affect the dashboards. Place the custom edited file in the customMesages folder.
3) When using the code, be aware that I setup a threshold variable. On line 5, I set "var threshold = 0;". This is the threshold at which the dropdown will appear. If you only want the drop-down to appear when you have 5 or more pages, then set this value to 5 and that will be accomplished.
Note:- There is no dashboardtemplates.xml file in customMessages. That is what you need to create.
1. Copy the file from C:\OracleBI\web\msgdb\messages and put it in the customMessage folder
2. Go to line 410
3. Right before the final "</HTML>" paste in the code from this link: http://www.scribd.com/doc/26230268/pageDropDown-1-3
4. Save.
5. Bounce all three services.
6. Test
Hope it helps.
Thanks,

Dashboard Pages "Selection Security"

Hello All,
I was just browsing in a Dashboard someone has built and when I was checking the securites on the same at "Dashboard Pages". We have 7 pages and each has there own "Selection Security". Accidently, I clicked on " Enable" link and the security has changed. Can anyone let me know how do get back the settings to "Enable".
Thanks,
Vijay

do this:
go to selection security and click either of the two icons available.
now you will be navigated to one page which has a id for that selection.Copy it.
Open your catalog manager. Navigate to that page. Right click and select properties. Now go for edit xml. Copy the xml in note pad and search for that id you copied.
Once you find it delete it (delete duid = <ur slection id>).
Now reload your page to no more see the changes.

Publish dashboard pages 11.1.1.5

Hi, I'm running in to an issue I haven't been able to resolve.
I've created personal dashboard pages that are linked to personal analysis, personal prompts, filters, etc. According to the OBIEE documentation, if I go into one of my personal dashboard pages, I can choose to publish that to a shared dashboard. According to the documentation this should not only publish the dashboard page, but also make shared copies of the personal reports, prompts, filters.
However, when we try that, I'm not seeing that behavior. It does look like it's publishing the dashboard page - but the objects on it are still pointing at my personal stuff - they haven't been copied in to the shared location anywhere.
Does anyone have a work around for this?
Thanks,
Scott

No errors being throw. Yes, I've followed what I can find of Oracle documentation, which states (page 4-17 of the OBIEE 11.1.1.5 Users Guide):
Publishing Dashboard Pages
You can publish a dashboard page to a shared dashboard location so that you can
share the page with others.
When you publish a dashboard page:
■ Personal content (such as analyses, prompts, and so on) is copied to a destination
location that you specify and references updated as appropriate.
■ References to shared content are retained.
But I'm completely NOT seeing that personal content is being copied to the destination location....
Thanks,
Scott

How to invoke Custom HTML pages on Dashboard page when running OBIEEon AIX

Hi,
i am facing an issue with regards to invoking a custom HTML page( say definitions.html) using html code inside a text section( with html markup) on a dashboard page.
I have performed the following configuration on Windows and it perfectly works well
However i can get the same to work on AIX where i actually needed it to work:)
Could any of you please provide any insights over this issue pls? am i missing something obvious? Appreciate your inputs.
Here is the description of the configuration performed.
Created a HTML file called definitions.html
copied the file in the following folders
OracleBI\web\app\res
OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\Missing_
I have created a new folder called _Missing.
I restarted the app server
HTML code on the Dashboard Page ( used Text section with HTML Markcup)
<b>Help
I have checked the permissions on the custom page and it loosk fine. I have added <HardenXSS> false</HardenXSS>tag to my instanceconfig.xml but not luck yet
Appreciate your inputs
Thanks

The easiest thing for you to do is to download the Oracle BI SampleApp (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/obiee-samples-167534.html) and follow their instructions for install/creating/deploying the analyticsRes application on the Oracle BI Application Server. This will allow you to have a URL such as http://myserver.obiee.com:9704/analyticRes/definitions.html on the same server system as your Oracle BI server. This way the port and domain are the same as your Oracle BI Server and you can simply place any additional web based file in that deployed application path to reference on your Oracle BI Server.

Easiest way of moving a dashboard page?

I need to move a dashboard page made by a user to the dashboard area of another user. Is it possible? If so, what is the easiest way of doing it?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Fabio

Settings - > Administration -> Manage Presentation Catalogue
You will need to enable 'Show Hidden Items'
Find the folder the dashboard was created in, this will be either :
\shared Folders\<folder name>\_portal\<dashboard name>
or
\users\<user name>\_portal\<dashboard name>
In the dashboard folders in the locations above you will see the pages , use the copy icon to either copy or move these to another dashboard folder (using the same location path templates as above).
Watch out for :
Accessing user folders can only be done by that user, you may need to get the user to copy the dashboard page to a shared folder if you want to pick it up for them.
leave the "dashboard layout" file where it is and dont touch it. I have been moving dashboard pages in a single sign on environment using this method for a while (Single Sign On = no on-line catalogue manager). The page is only a reference to other objects (prompts, reports etc) so you only need to move the page. Obviously make sure the dashboard content has the correct permissions for the target audience !
Try that out and let us know how you get on.

How do I move or copy a page from one pages doc to another?

I used to frequently move or copy a page from one multiple-page Pages document to another just but dragging and dropping the thumbnail. Since I upgraded I can't do this anymore. How can I do it now?

It never worked that way in Pages '09. You have to copy and paste the Thumbnails.
That no longer works in Pages 5. Sounds like you are not copying and pasting content because that certainly works. Read what VikingOS wrote and do precisely what he said.

Reg: Dashboard page Name not getting displayed.

Hi
I have created a dashboard Dashboard1 and it has 5 different pages
pg1 thru pg5. I have 5 users USER1,USER2.USER3,USER4 and USER5.
I have assigned each page to a user and all the users have access to Dashboard1
i.e
USER1 pg1 of Dashboard1
USER2 pg2 of Dashboard1
USER3 pg3 of Dashboard1
USER4 pg4 of Dashboard1
USER5 pg5 of Dashboard1
The problem is name of the pages is not displayed once the dashboard is accessed after log on..The report attached to that page is displaying data, but page name on the tab is blank...
Could anybody help me with this information pls..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
When a single page is placed on the Dashboard it will not show the page name as it won't show any tab on the Dashboard. This is happening by default.
This case applies to your scenario as you restricting those pages among the users.
To just check, give the permissions to the user1 to view 2 dashboard pages instead of 1. Then you can able to see the page names on the tabs as 2 pages are on the Dashboard for that user.
I am also not aware of displaying the Page name when there is a single page on the dashboard...:(

OBIEE 11g: Subscribe to Agents through Dashboard page?

Hi all,
I have created a set of agents which would deliver personalized content to subscribing users based on their OBIEE username. The agents work great, however I am stuck at finding a simpler way to allow various users to subscribe to said agents.
The standard subscription method is cumbersome: Go to Catalog, browse to where agents are, Click More, select Subscribe. I don't want my users wandering around through a pretty thick catalog only to subscribe to an agent. Chances are they'll wander off, mess up, fail to subscribe or not even bother to try in the first place. What I would rather do is have them go to a dashboard and click on something to subscribe directly, without caring where the agents are located.
A dodgy workaround I have implemented is to put up a link to an URL which is the catalog location of the agents. Users would click on that link and they will see the list of agents, allowing them to subscribe/unsubscribe. Still, I would like to simplify this further, if possible. Any ideas?

Hi All,
I am trying to display ‘help’ section on every dashboard or Create a separate Help Dashboard Page …

So I am using the URL for link object as
URL= saw.dll?downloadFile&path=%2Fshared%2FHelp%2FEmployee_Expenses.pdf
Image = fmap:Images/help.gif (Do I need to have help.gif in /Shared Folders/Help folder Cause I don’t have it…)
It’s not working – Any Ideas….
Thanks,

How to copy a page( webpart page) with its content using client side.

How to copy a page(in my case webpart page) with its content(it may contain webparts) using client code (i mean using SPservices or ECMA script).
What i am planning is ,to give end user a page where it will contain text box to specify name of page and a button with the help of content editor webpart.
where on click of button we need to write client side code such that it should create a new page from a existing page in a library with given name by user.
Any suggestion would be helpful. For your information we can do it through UI with the help Site Actions / Manage Content and Structure.But i want to automate it using client side code.Server side code is restricted.
or can we create a template of an existing page with content without the help of sharepoint designer.
Thanks in advance
with regards Ravichandra

This is good example
