Logout link is missing in OBIEE 11g

HI,
After enabling SSO using CA Siteminder i am able to login to OBIEE11g using sso enabled url, but after logging in i dont see the logoff button at the top of OBIEE. From the EM under security i have enabled sso and added logon url and logoff url and verified the same in instanceconfig.xml but still the logoff button is not visible. Any help?
Thanks,
RM

SSVS,
ya i did verify the authenticationschemas.xml it has the below values:

<SchemaKeyVariable source="serverVariable" nameInSource="REMOTE_USER" forceValue="SSO"/>
<SchemaKeyVariable source="serverVariable" nameInSource="REMOTE_USER" forceValue="SSO-ATG"/>
*<SchemaKeyVariable source="httpHeader" nameInSource="SM_USER" forceValue="SSO-Siteminder"/>*

<AuthenticationSchema name="SSO-Siteminder" displayName="CA Siteminder" userID="IMPERSONATE" proxyUserID="NQ_SESSION.RUNAS" options="noLogoffUI noLogonUI">

*<RequestVariable source="httpHeader" type="auth" nameInSource="SM_USER" biVariableName="IMPERSONATE" options="required"/>*

</AuthenticationSchema>
but i dont think we can define the logoff and logonURL in here. It will be updated in instanceconfig.xml file when we update the logon and logoff url from EM under Security ->singlesignon
<Authentication>

<EnabledSchemas>UidPwd,Impersonate,UidPwd-soap,Impersonate-soap,SSO-Siteminder,SSO</EnabledSchemas>
<SchemaExtensions>

<Schema name="SSO" logonURL="http://web1.com/analytics/" logoffURL="http://hostname:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Logoff"/>
</SchemaExtensions>
</Authentication>
I have the above values in there. Any other thoughts from you
Thanks,

Links to document in OBIEE 11G

Hi,
I would like to know, how certain links to stored document can be configured in OBIEE 11G
eg: We have 'Help' icon, on click it opens up the 'Help Doc' which is stored in default (../analytics/olh/l_en) location.
I want to know where are the settings (in which files) to edit the link and point to someother location
Regards,
Jitendra

Ok,
We wanted to show an Icon or Link which will navigate user (once clicked) to a pre-defined location where 'Help Content Files' will be located.
Now, I was able to achieve this with the use of "Link or Image" object from 'Dashboard Objects' (once you edit Dashboard check the options at LHS); and configuring 'Link or Image Object' with path to files as well as image.

Issue Action links,Column sorting in OBIEE(11g) 11.1.1.7.0

Hello everyone,
I want to provide the feature column sorting to my users but i dont want to provide any feature to users when they click on right mouse button.When we click on right mouse in action link column value it is giving the "action links","include/exclude columns" options etc.
I disabled the do not display the action link report name in the column properties.
Also disable the include/exclude columns options in the interaction XYZ properties of the view.
But still i am not able to understand why these links are coming when i run the report from the dashboard.
Please help me out here.
thanks,

Hi Timo,
I am using data control web services to get these attributes on to the jspx page. The table has the value property which is binding to the iterator( #{bindings.SUMMARY_LINES_ITEM.collectionModel}).
The table has various coulmns like order no, status, request and so on..where Order no and status are converted to a cmd link which navigates to another page on a query.
I don't understand how setting sorting to true in one of the columns can make it not found in the iterator! And I get the errors only if sorting is done first before querying(clicking on one of the values in a column to navigate to another page).
Thanks,
Sue

OBIEE 11g Analysis : Change Report edit link to go Criteria tab instead

How to change the setting to have the "Edit" to go to criteria tab instead of Results (Compond view)?
Many time we may need to change the filter from default setting and then run the report or if the filter is setup to be used from a dashboard (using "Prompted") option...then the report attmpts to run the report without values...
And I have not checked to see if the server cancels the query to the database when the user navigates to the Critetia Page as there is no cancel link...(as it displayed in 10g...)
FYI, We have just started using OBIEE 11g in a dev environment, we are in the process of configuring the new env to get ready for prod...
Thanks

Hi,
By default, the Action request is sent to results tab. You can modify it by editing the dashboardeditor.js file found in /app/res/b_mozilla/dashboards folder.
Steps:
1) Open dashboardeditor.js file.
2) Search for the function "DUIModifyReport".
3) Inside the function you will find that ***"&Action=results&Path="****
4) Change results to criteria. In other words, the changed code will look like
****"&Action=criteria&Path="*****
5) Re-deploy the code and bounce the services.
-- Remember, this will affect for entire dashboard, and for all users. ---
If you want to avoid step (5), then manually copy the changed dashboardeditor.js to /user_projects/domains/BIfoundation/servers/bi_server1/tmp/_WL_user/analytics_11.1.1/$RANDOMFOLDERNAME$/war/res/b_mozilla/dashboards and bounce the services.
Voila - now when you edit the analysis through dashboard, it will take you to the criteria tab, instead of results tab.
Please award points, if it helps.

Bharath

Action links in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
Can anyone help to understand all Action Links in obiee 11g.
Thank You,
Ram.

Hi Ram,
Here are a couple URLs with examples on those types of actions.
Java Method example
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/09/oracle-bi-ee-11g-action-framework-java-ejbs-and-pdf-watermarks/
Invoke Browser Script
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2012/07/navigating-to-bi-content-in-obiee11g-and-passing-multiple-parameters/
Invoke an HTTP Request
This is a way to create a simple http GET or POST method, you can google around and find any number of examples on this.

Link to OBIEE 11g Dashboard Page from a 10g Dashboard Page

Hi all,
Is it possible to place a Link object on a dashboard page (within OBIEE 10g) and have that navigate to an OBIEE 11g dashboard page?
If so, how is that implemented?
Our 11g and 10g environments are on different servers.
For business reasons (and budgets) we are not migrating our entire 10g environment to 11g just yet.
Thanks.

You can use Go URL as long as they are on same network domain [Go URL|http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21043_01/bi.1111/e16364/apiwebintegrate.htm#i1005050]

OBIEE 11g - APEX Integration through Action links

Hi All,
We are trying to achieve SSO between OBI and APEX. We got this working by the below process.
1. Integrate OBI domain with AD
2. Integrate APEX with the same AD ( Perform standalone configuration)
3. Create Action Link in OBI pointing to APEX form
4. Accessing Action Link does not prompt the credentials
5. APEX form opens up in a separate tab in browser
We checked this by logging into OBI using an AD ID and jumping to APEX from there through action link. However the user context is not getting carried forward to APEX. For example if we login as "d123456" AD user in OBI, when we access APEX form the user name is appearing as "NO BODY" at the top right corner. We have a use case where in we want to capture the ID who is accessing the APEX form. The field is updated as NOBODY.
But if we login to APEX stand alone URL, then the actual AD user name can be seen on APEX pages.
Can some one help on how to carry forward the user context from OBI to APEX.
Thanks in advance.

OBIEE 11g Agent Includes Action Link Report Name

OBIEE 11g Agent Includes Action Link Report Name
I have a dashboard page with multiple reports. One of the reports has Action Links to drill to another report. When I view the dashboard as a web page, the report with the Action Links look fine. The link fields are colored blue. When I send this dashboard page as an HTML email, it shows the Action Link report name in the cell with the other data.
The dashboard page sent out as an agent should look the same as the web page and the Action Link report name should not be visible.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Eric

So you spoofed the values of the 2nd column to have the report act almost like a menu listing?
if that's the case then check the data type of column 2, it should be set to HTML. Then you will just need to build your HTML tag within the column formula.
Example below bins the year name into a Link HTML Tag:
'<a href="http://'|| CASE WHEN "Time"."T05 Per Name Year" = '2011' THEN 'www.google.com' WHEN "Time"."T05 Per Name Year" = '2012' THEN 'www.yahoo.com' ELSE 'www.apple.com' END || '" target="_blank" > ' || CASE WHEN "Time"."T05 Per Name Year" = '2011' THEN 'www.google.com' WHEN "Time"."T05 Per Name Year" = '2012' THEN 'www.yahoo.com' ELSE 'www.apple.com' END || '</a>'
if that is not what you are attempting to do, please clarify.

Calculated Items and Action Links (OBIEE 11g)

Hi,
On OBIEE 11g here...
I have an anaylsis which shows a pivot table with only 6 columns of calculated items, with all of the standard columns hidden. The split of the pivot has been achieved using a variable created using the bin function.
I have set an action link on the measure shown in the pivot table to navigate to another analysis and, while clicking on one of the measures in a pivot column runs the specified report, it is not run using the the necessary parameters required to match the dataset shown in that particular column.
Is it possible to drill to a separate report and pass through the required filters from a measure showing in a calculated item, as it would be on a measure showing in a standard pivot table column?
Thanks,
Ang

You need to have 'Is Prompted' for that specific measure. I would suggest to use action links on other columns instead of metrics.
Pls mark as correct/helpful if helps

Issue with Skip Level Hierarchy in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have implemented Ragged and Skip Level Hierarchy as explained in the links below in OBIEE 11g RPD.
(checked the 'Ragged' and 'Skipped Levels' check boxes)
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/07/obiee-11gr1-support-for-ragged-skip-level-value-based-hierarchies/
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/e10540/dimensions.htm#BABFBBFG
When the Presentation Hierarchy is dragged in the OBI Answers, the leaf level beyond the skip (null) levels is not shown in the report.
When any level finds intermediate null values, OBIEE is failing to show the existing value of the leaf level (Most Granular Level) or any values after Skipped Levels.
For example, following is the values in database for different levels of department hierarchy.
A -> B -> C -> Null -> Null -> F
The OBIEE Presentation Hierarchy can only drill down till C, not beyond that. (does not show the leaf level value 'F').
Could you please suggest whether I am missing any step?
Thanks.

Hi, My problem is that in my report it is showing me that levels as -- A -> B -> C -> Null -> Null -> F, however I want to show data as A -> B -> C -> F, i.e the null valus(columns) should be skipped. Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Deepak
