How to use RESTful Web Services provided from BO Enterprise

Hi Experts,
i am trying to use the Web Service "BIPLATFORM" provided by BusinessObjects Enterprise. As I have trouble reading the WSDL i tried to use the REST interface.
Unfortunatally I cannot find any Docu about that in the internet.
Does anybody have experience in using the BIPLATFORM web service?
Thank you in advance

Thank you very much for your instant answer and help!
I got it now: "no rest in biplatform service"
What made me think REST is possible was only the following entry in ...\webapps\dswsbobje\WEB-INF\conf\axis2.xml
"
- 
- 
- 
- 
- 
<parameter name="disableREST" locked="true">false</parameter>
- 
Anyway I was only hoping to get REST work as the WSDL provided by BusinessObjects Enterprise is not valid to be parsed by SAP Netweaver ABAP SOAP Runtime...
I regret but i have to add: The fact that the web service is only meant to work with certain consumers shows that the people responsible have little to no understanding what the idea of SOAP, SOA and WSDL really is. On the one hand SAP was always pushing their ESOA idea but on the other hand we got this strange limitations like "only for these clients..."
This is exactly the opposite of the SOAP-idea:
"The framework has been designed to be independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics." - http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-soap12-part1-20070427/

How to use RESTFUL web services in SMP 3.0 Appbuilder?

Hi All,
     I want to develop an application using RESTfull service. I have already developed REST service,I want to use that service in Appbuilder Application for SMP3.0. How can I call the REST services into our SMP 3.0 Appbuilder application? If i directly call the services(GET method) from Appbuilder, It is working but ODataQuery is not working for filter.
     1.How to access the POST method in Appbuilder?
     2.where should I provide the username and password for the login URL in our appbuilder for POST method URL?
     3.How can I convert those REST service to ODATA services?

     In this discussion i found the solution for this issue. But Appbuilder supports the REST services i to used the REST service with GET method, I don't know how to use the POST method directly in Appbuilder?
Can any one suggest me
     1.How do i querying the GET method of REST services?
     2.Is there any other procedure to call the REST Service with POST method in Appbuilder?

How to use a Web Service Proxy from a different DC?

Hi developers,
In EJB DC "dc1" I have imported a wsdl and generated proxies and service group.
In public part "compilation" of dc1 I have added all the generated proxy classes and the wsdl from META-INF/wsdl folder
EJB DC "dc2" depends on this public part (also on the mcjar public part which should hold info on the Service Group).
Here I would like to use the proxy classes defined in "dc1" to invoke the WS in my WSConsumer StatelessEJB like this:
@Stateless
public class WSConsumerBean implements WSConsumerLocal {
     @WebServiceRef
     ZWSWORKSHOP1 service;
     public ArrayOfString testWS() {
          ZWSWORKSHOP1ViDocument port = service
                    .getPort(ZWSWORKSHOP1ViDocument.class);
          ArrayOfString retVal = port.doOperation();
          return retVal;
After deploying the EAR with both the proxy and the ejb, when I try to invoke the EJB injection fails:
javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: JAX-WS deployable proxy is instantiated with 'new' instead of been injected. Cannot find WSDL URL for service [class zws_workshop1wsd.ZWSWORKSHOP1]
Can someone help?
Thanks, regards
Vincenzo

A solution is to use JNDI lookup in EJB.
Instantiate a InitialContext and lookup the JNDI entry with the lookup String you can find in NWA -> JNDI browser
Have fun!
Thanks, regards

How to call Jive Search methods using REST Web Services from ADF

Hi
Can someone provide me an example to call JIVE Search using REST web services from Webcenter ADF.
As we have the similar facility to call UCM Search from WebServices DataControl.
Do we have anything similar like this for JIVE Search?
JIVE 5.1 is deprecating SOAP style web services and so I am planning to use REST.
Any suggestions on this is much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Khad

so what exactly is the problem here?
what is not working?

Report Repointing using RESTful Web Services

With respect to this link: Changing Dataproviders for a Webi Report using RESTful Web Services
Cosider the following scenario:
You have an automation code using which, you accepts 20 report id and their respective Current universe id and New universe id.
If suppose, you have user input prompts in 10 reports and you don't know those 10 reports, how will you provide values to those prompts at a single execution of the code?
OR
Is there any function using which you can provide associated random value to those prompts?

Hi Raghunath,
Looking at your macro, most of the functionality would be available with REST SDK. With BI 4.x REST is now only SDK which provides APIs to work with webi report. With .NET or Java SDK we could not eeven schedule a webi doc with prompts.
With BI 4.1 REST APIs include.
refresh report, schedule report, save report, export which is done by your macro.
For detailed tasks, such as saving and modifying the report for specific users and send to schedule, you would need to play around with REST Urls to understand the workflow.
For starters take a look at the devleopers guide for REST here:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sbo41/en/sbo41_webi_restful_ws_en.pdf
Here is the doc which compares the availability of SDK APIs with different BI versions.
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-53285
For any Enterprise level tasks, you could always use .NET or Java enterprise SDk and comibe it with your REST app.

How to consume a web service provided by third party system from SAP system

Hi Friends,
Could any of you provide me a clear picture on how to consume a web service from SAP system and is provided by a third party system?
Do we get an URL to create a client proxy for consuming the web service?
Thanx in advance,
Ram

Hi Ram,
of course you cannot supply the WSDL URL. Inside the WSDL (just view it in your browser) you find (usually but not necessary) towards the end something like
<soap:address location="http://www.weather.gov/forecasts/xml/SOAP_server/ndfdXMLserver.php"/>
which is the actual adress of the service.
An example service can be found here:
<a href="http://www.weather.gov/xml/">National Digital Forecast Database</a>
containing the WSDL URL at
<a href="http://www.weather.gov/forecasts/xml/DWMLgen/wsdl/ndfdXML.wsdl">this address</a>.
You might also want to browse for the amazon webservices which allow you to embed queries against amazon into your application.
have fun,
anton

How to call restful web services from BPEL

How do we call create partnerlinks for calling RESTful web services in Oracle BPEL.
Any ideas ?

Raymond,
1. To consume WebService in Flex you don't need FDS at all.
2. AFAIK, you need crossdomain.xml at WS host or System.allowDomain("ws-host") or System.allowInsecureDomain("ws-host") on Flex side. Check Flex documentation.
3. Better to discuss this topic in some other forum -- say WebAS General. It's not related to WD

Can we use REST web service as Data source in SSRS? !!!!NOT SOAP!!!!

Hello,
We have requirement to use the REST web service as the Data source of SSRS. Tried with XML as Data Source, but unfortunately I could not succeed because the query expects SOAPAction which is not available in REST Service.
Do we have any option to use REST Service, if so please provide some basic example, so that I can try out some options.
If not, do we have any alternate solutions to handle these situations?
Thanks!
Vinay

Hi Vinay.
After looking on it for some time, I am afraid currently there is no document to talk on how to use the REST web service as a data source.
You can use the link
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/library/aa964129(v=SQL.90).aspx for a renference.
From a support perspective currently this is really beyond what we can do here in the forums. If you cannot determine your answer here or on your own, consider opening a

How to register Rest web services in Cold Fusion 9 administration console?

I am building a Rest web service using Cold Fusion 9 and Cold Fusion Builder 3 and now I want to register it on Cold Fusion 9 admin console, but I didn't see any option there as in CF 10 and CF 11 Data Services ---> Rest Web service. So, please tell me how to register my Rest web service in CF 9 either through admin console or through code?

Simple answer: you can't. REST services were a new feature released with CF10. Alternatively, you can use a community-supported framework to provide REST services, such as:
Taffy (a dedicated REST framework)
FW/1 (an MVC framework with REST capabilities)
ColdBox (an MVC framework with REST capabilities)

How to use a Web Service Response

In the snps_users documentation it seems to be really easy but in fact...
After invoking my web service I retrieve a XML file which is my response then we would like to use it.
As written in the documentation I Export Response in XSD file, I create my XML Model but How to reverse the XSD ???
There's 4 references to XSD into all the snps_users documentation but no one talking about.
Moreover it's written See Creating and Reverse-Engineering a
Model for an XML file for more information and that's what I'm doing but no way...
So without the XSD I m trying to use the Response file like an XML file but I always have an error which looks like :
java.sql.SQLException: No root found in the DTD file
The Web Service Response XML File use NameSpace could the problem come from here ???
If someone ever use it ...
Thanks in advance.
BM

When I specify the XSD It raises another error,
my URL is :
jdbc:snps:xml?f=C:/Temp/File.xml&d=C:/Temp/File.xsd&s=REPON&nspg=xml
Error message:
java.sql.SQLException: A SAXException was caught while reading the model saying [Element value has no type]
The XSD and the XML are generated by ODI after invoking a Web Service...
Any idea ???

How to use HTTP Web Service action of SharePoint 2013 Designer to get UserProfiles?

Dear all,
I've tried several methods to get the user profile, but still in vain.
I do search the solutions from the forums and Google.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/52ceba69-5019-4175-9b34-b9e06c3472bf/rest-query-from-workflow-return-unauthorized
Because the above link is still not work for me, I arise a question here.
Actually, I would like to get a user's manager, thus I use the rest api:
[%workflow content:current site URL%]_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetMyProperties/extendedmanagers
However, I always get unauthorized error.
{"error":{"code":"-2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException","message":{"lang":"zh-TW","value":"拒絕存取。您沒有執行此動作或存取此資源的權限。"}}}
Below screenshots are my web service settings.
1. Build a dictionary and set Authorization, Acception, Content-Type.
2. Call web service and set the RequestHeaders.
And, I can use the rest api in the browser to see my manager (logged in).
<d:ExtendedManagers>
<d:element>i:0#.f|membership|[email protected]</d:element>
<d:element>i:0#.f|membership|[email protected]</d:element>
</d:ExtendedManagers>
Could anybody help me to clarify this issue?
Thank you!
