Extract Essbase metadata

Hello,
I'm trying to create an interface to extract Essbase metadata. I reversed an essbase model. At the interface diagram window, I was able to drag the essbase dimension into the source area. However, i don't see the Target Datasource area where I can drop the target model into. How do I get to see the Target area?
Thanks

Thank you I see that. When I opened it, it showed in horizontal view. How can I switch it to Vertical view where I can see the source and the target at the same time?

  • Extraction of Essbase Metadata into a Text File

    When extracting metadata from Essbase into a txt file, the file lists the child members before the parents. We want it vice versa-just like it looks in Essbase. LKM Hyperion Essbase METADATA to SQL Is used for extraction.

    Unfortunately that is the way the API extracts the hierarchy.
    There are a couple of options extract the hierarchy with an incremental id, then order by the ID, this will need to be done in an rdbms staging area such as Oracle or SQL Server.
    If you are using Oracle you can always load to table and then using the connect by prior command to sort in the correct parent/child format, I am sure there is something equivalent in sql server.

  • Error Extracting Essbase Product Dimension to a Flat File

    I am new to ODI and do not know how to troubleshoot this issue.
    I am trying to extract an Essbase Dimension (Product) to a Flat File.
    The source is Essbase Product and the Flat File is the Target. The target file is .csv.
    I have the fields to execute on Staging Area.
    When I click apply, I get an error stating: Target/Staging Area: You must set a IKM for the target.
    In the IKM folder I have the following:

  • Extract XMP metadata from specific Photoshop Layer in After Effects

    How do it extract XMP metadata from specific Photoshop Layer in After Effects?
    I am just getting my hands dirty with metadata.
    I know it is possible to attack metadata to a layer/layerset in Photoshop, but how to I get it out in After Effects.
    Here is the process.
    I create BunchaLayers.psd.
    Using the PerLayerMetaData.jsx file attached.
    I use the setCommMetadata("something") function to attacked metadata to a selected layer.
    I know that is is there because I check it using the exportLayerMetadata().
    I save and imprt BunchaLayers.psd into AE as a comp.
    Here I am lost.
    I select my layer in the project window and check the XMP metadata window.
    I can't find my comment.
    Is the XMP data actually attached to the layer I imported in AE?
    I want to be able to select the layer and see that the data is attached.  Is this possible?
    If it is will it work on layersets (comps in AE)?
    I would appreciate any layer specific XMP insight.
    Thanks for looking.

    John Nack on Adobe : Per-layer metadata comes to Photoshop
    This was the article that made me think this might be possible.
    There is also the preference to Create Markers From Metadata
    ["Metadata"]
              "CreateLayerMarkersFromFootageXMP" = 01
    Which made me wonder if there is a way to create the metadata in the first place that made it something AE would read and automatically change to layer markers.
    Any ideas?

    Not sure if it's valid to have a dimension with 1 hierarchy and 1 level in that hierarchy. The hierarchy may have to have at least 2 levels. If you want the configuration of a dimension with 1 hierarchy and 1 level, CWM2 may want you to omit the hierarchy, thus creating the dimension with only 1 level.

  • Extracting HFM Metadata

    Hi
    I am currently researching the possibilities for extracting HFM metadata into a SQL database. I know ODI has a KM to extract the members for the dimensions.
    Could you confirm the format that these members are extracted in?
    Does it extract them in a parent/child format or just a flat list members?
    Thanks

    Hi Paul,.
    I tried the script and it worked well for me, except the state/rrovince was blank.  I think it must be from the category where the city and country wer before that didn't show.
    Previously it was a very convoluted procedure for me to get the info to my Access database.  I would first enter the info in MSWorks database, because of the time saver of the fill-down and fill series that MSAccess doesn't have.  After entering all the info I would save it as a text file and import into Access after assigned the fields, some of which had to be modified slightly as one for example would such as slide # and the other slide_#,  One I couldn't change and if I changed the other in ACCESS then all the queries and reports based on it would have to redone also..  I would get the fields to coincide and then do an append query to add to the main table.
    I had only one location field when I set up the database, and not separate ones as in Bridge, so city, state and country would all be in the same field. I would only add country when it was not US which was seldom.
    In anticipation of the ability to import the different location fields, I added city, state/province and country to the database, and then I spent about 8 hours creating hundreds of update queries, for each state, city and country to have the data of 166,000 records in the respective fields.
    I did a sma run yesterday with a folder that only had a couple dozen images.  I have to reorder the fields somewhat, but this is promising to be a huge time-saver and I look forward to using it when I have some much bigger downloads to convert.
    Thanks very much for all your help with this.

  • Workflow to extract artist metadata within an mp4 movie

    When I add an mp4 file to a document library, I would like to be able to run a workflow to get the artist name out of the file and I'll set a column with that.
    I may want to get other fields at a later point, but I need to know how to start this process 

    Hi Carphuntin_god,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use workflow to extract embedded metadata from a video file to SharePoint 2010.
    Per my knowledge, there is not an OOB way to achieve it. You can get the embedded metadata using programming.
    Here are some similar posts for you to take a look at:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/67c007fd-d59c-4881-bbd4-95fbc54ac0b3/pdf-file-metadata-into-sharepoint-list-while-uploading?forum=sharepointdevelopmentlegacy

    Or, you can use a third party solution called Video Library to get the embedded metadata from video files.

  • I'm using LR 4.4.  How do I extract the metadata from my images and export it into Excel?

    I want to extract the metadata I have added to my images and export it into an Excel spreadsheet.  Can this be done within LR4.4?  If the software doesn't have a function for this is there another way to do it?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    JB's ListView is the most straight-forward solution, but
    ConfidentialInformant
    allows for full customization (e.g. if you want to pick and choose custom metadata fields, or export more fields than ListView supports (10), or tweak data formats, or add intelligence...).

  • Essbase Metadata ATTRIBUTE Extraction

    Hi Everyone,
    Anyone have any luck exporting Essbase (BSO) hierarchy attribute information? I have the Essbase Dimension extraction working, but getting an error on the Attribute process.
    Appreciate your thoughts -- let me know if anyone has had any success with this.
    -Chris

    Hmm... I was just able to Export my Essbase Attribute Dimension Hierarchy with Star Analytics Integration Services (SIS) in about 5 minutes. So I know the extraction of Attribute hierarchies is possible. The cool thing was SIS created its own table to do this and it was user friendly. Very cool extraction utility -- far superior than the OLAP Extraction tool.
    Has anyone had success using ODI to extract Attribute Dimension Hierarchies? I hope so because I'd like to use ODI to do this step. Was hoping to see a John Goodwin blog on this or something by Cameron Lackpour.
    We're also installing Patch 12529600: ORACLE DATA INTEGRATOR 10.1.3.6.8 CUMULATIVE PATCH this weekend and maybe that might help get beyond the erorr we're hitting.

  • Can we use SSIS to extract Essbase Outline

    Hi
    I am not sure if this is the appropriate place to raise this question.
    I am working with Essbase and SSIS. In SSIS there is no way where we can connect to Essbase as source or destination.
    Is there any way where we can connect Essbase as data source to extract data or matadata from Essbase using SSIS.
    If anyone has tried it out then please give some guidelines to implement the same

    Hi user,
    There is no way to conduct an Outline extraction using MS SSIS by itself. There was discussion a while back on using XMLA to do so but that is not possible either.
    Depending on what exactly you need from your Essbase outline, you can use MS Reporting Services to report on an Essbase Cube. This is very possible.
    So, if you are trying to get dimensionality, etc you could possible pull in this data into reporting services and then export to a CSV file, etc. However, you wouldn't be able to get all of the possbile metadata from the outline that you wish. I really depends on how complex the request/requirement of what you doing actual is.
    Your best best is really going to be to use one of the popular outline extractors like Razza or AppliedOLAPs.
    Don't forget to award points.
    Cheers,
    Christian

  • Extract schema/metadata - names for all tables and attributes

    Hi, I am quite new to Oracle DB (only been doing dev mostly with sqlserver before). Is there a way to extract schema (names for all tables and attributes) for 10g and 11g in application code (either java or .net) or pl/sql?
    Thank you,
    -Tony

    There are built in views that start with DBA_, ALL_, and USER_. All means all the user can see, user means all the user has, and dba means everything, which generally means the same as the others plus an owner. So you can desc user_tables to see what-all that view has, then select columns from the view with ordinary sql. See the doc set for all the views available, interesting ones are ...views, ...objects, ...tab_cols and so forth.
    There are also built in procedures for getting metadata, google for details.
    Many tools have easy GUI's for this too. EM has ways on the administration screen to get to various objects, and then you can show the ddl. Maybe sqldeveloper has something too.

  • Purpose of extracting the metadata after loading the metadata

    Hi Hyperion experts,
    AFTER loading the metadata in File what is the reason to go for extracting and where we will use

    I keep the XML files around after every load for a variety of reasons :
    - Loading to other applications : I'll generally make changes in dev / test and move to production. I guess I could probably get LCM to do the moving around; however, we're not big users of it at this point. I just load the file into the next app. It's pretty easy to open the client and hit load metadata. ;)
    - Historical Records : Since I keep a copy of every 'major' load into the system, I can easily 'roll back' or tell you when a change was made as far back as I want.
    - SOX Audits : Part of our controls is to ensure that changes loaded to production are approved through our documentation process. Having the files allows them to confirm what changes were made when.
    - Point in Time comparisons : Pretty much just like the SOX Audit, I will periodically review two points in time to see what has changed. For instance, every year when I roll out our budget Smartview template, I compared the current metadata to the prior year to do a quick check to see what accounts have changed. Depending on what has changed during hte last year, I may need to update my template accordingly, etc. [I use an XML differencing tool to do the comparisons]
    - Insurance : ' I'm not paranoid, I just know everyone is after me ' While I keep backups of my databases, etc, etc, I like having the file versions 'just in case'. If any of my other tools malfunction or I lose a backup, I can always grab my trusty files and reload.
