Obiee 11g Ibots Bursting
All: Is it possible to enforce data security filters when a report would need to be delivered to multiple users with individual data visibility? These users will not log in to the OBIEE 11g system and hence the user names (accounts) will not be present under user/groups of WebLogic Console.
BI Publisher can do the same, but I wanted to confirm if OBIEE 11g's IBOT delivery is really not designed/setup to distribute content with individual data security when the users are not selected from logged in user accounts. In a nutshell, we won't pay license fees for users who receive their data thru Ibots.
Thanks
AR
Short answer: No it isn't.
Longer answer: No it isn't designed to do that. It's a question of security and handling of sensitive data. OBIEE does an implicit login when personalizing the content of an agent. So you can either go for BIP bursting or as you say pay the license fees.

Obiee 11g Publisher Bursting Report error
Hi
I am using Obiee 11g (ver. 11.1.1.3.0) and trying to achieve report bursting. I have created Data model and Report. Report is showing result but once I schedule report by bursting to file,
1. I am getting error (ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected).
2. where I can get bursting fail log?
Its urgent.
Bursting to file SQL Query as below: -
SELECT DEPT.DNAME as DNAME KEY, 'Standard' TEMPLATE,
'RTF' TEMPLATE_FORMAT,
'en-US' LOCALE,
'PDF' OUTPUT_FORMAT,
'FILE' DEL_CHANNEL,
'E:\BIP' PARAMETER1,
DEPT.DNAME || '.pdf' PARAMETER2
FROM SCOTT.DEPT DEPTChange your query to the following and then try it out; this should take care of the ORA error
SELECT DEPT.DNAME KEY, 'Standard' TEMPLATE,
'RTF' TEMPLATE_FORMAT,
'en-US' LOCALE,
'PDF' OUTPUT_FORMAT,
'FILE' DEL_CHANNEL,
'E:\BIP' PARAMETER1,

No script engine supported for 'JScript' error in OBIEE 11G ibots
Infrastructure: 64 bit OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on 64 bit Red-Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6
We tried using *.java to export the delivery content of an 'Agent' and place it in a shared folder on Windows.
We are able to use the .java file directly in putty and it works fine in creating a folder and copying the file from source to target, but when we put the same script as part of the actions in the 'Agent' properties, its fails with the error "[nQSError: 66023] No script engine supported for 'JScript'". The e-mail is triggered and the attachment is delivered fine.
We tried the same with a *.js file. The error is the same. I found people using *.js scripts and they say it worked for them at Re: How to send the content of an agent (PDF Report) to local machine in 11g
But I am not sure what are the other settings that should be done. The error seems very basic and fundamental and has something to do with java interpreter or something.
Any help if you have implemented the same, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!That example in the link shows creating an action at the end of 'Agent'. I am not sure if that is what the user meant by 'create an action'. If the user meant to create an 'action', how does and where we call that action at the end of an 'Agent'?
I did try creating an action by updating the 'UserScript.js' file, but the moment i update the file with a custom function, the server doesnot recognise the UserScript.js file anymore and i cannot even use the default functions in UserScript.js file. -

How to use S A System subject area in OBIEE-11g
How to specify condition in Ibot of OBIEE-11GYou can use the SA System subject area after you set it up by following the documentation link provided below. It could be used in OBIEE Delivers which enables contact information, such as e-mail addresses to be retrieved from a database and used as delivery devices in Delivers instead of having the user's manually setup their own delivery device.
Here is the link to the documentation on how to setup SA system subject area in OBIEE 11g:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10541/sa_system.htm
You can set the condition in the condition tab which is the 3rd one I suppose. -

OBIEE 11g: How to send email from Analysis (via Action Framework)
Hi,
I have installed OBIEE 11g SampleAppLite in my POC box.
One of the features I want to have is to allow users to send their feedback (email) about a report to the report owner. Can this be done without launching Outlook? I tried to Invoke a Browser Script and found that I can display a form showing Recipient, Subject and Message text fields, but I do not know how to send the email.
Thanks!Hi Devarasu,
Thanks for your reply. The link you gave is for sending iBots. But if I do this, users will not be able to send their feedback / comment. -
OBIEE 11G: Issue with Agent
Hello All,
I am trying to make agent work in OBIEE 11G together with Active Directory settings but the agent are failling for some users. Some users are not able to send the ibots:
We get the following message with Agent Failed:
Agent ID: XXXXXXX
No devices for user: XXXX
Agent ID: XXXXXXXX
No Content for user: XXXX
Kindly note that I have already checked the My Account of these users and the email address is well present there.
Can anyone help us investigate on this issue.
Thanks and RegardsWhere do you have your LDAP configured
Is it in RPD or in Weblogic? -
Hi,
I want to know if there is a peculiar features in OBIEE 11g.
Is it possibile to load all levels of a hierarchy in cache when I start a report or an analysis?
Because I need to drill inside a hierarchy but each time OBIEE makes again the physical query, and it requires about one minute, and this time is too much for me.
thanks.I dont think it is possible in OBIEE 11g though i never worked on 11g.But your problem seems to be related to cache seeding.
One mothod to do this is to create a detal level report which has all the columns from hierarchy,Schedule it through IBOT so that it runs everyday.In this way cache will be seeded and you will be able to make use of cache.This is caleed cache seeding.

Agents not working in the upgraded OBIEE 11G
Hi All,
Recently we hae upgraded our BI Suite(10.1.3.4.1) to 11G(11.1.1.5.0)
We are able to see all of our ibots(Agents) in the new 11G instance and I have added new recipients, set the schedule for the seedding cache.
But when I try to run the Agent (Start Immediately), Agent ending up with a warning Invalid subscribers skipped
Even we have configured the email setup(SMTP) in the enterprise manager and we are able to receive the mail attachments.
But our goal is to add the usernames in the recipients tab and set the seeding cache option for the specified users.
How can we achieve this in OBIEE 11G
Any help would be much apprecialted....
Thanks

OBIEE11g issue: hiding header banner in OBIEE 11g?
Hi BI Experts,
I have a requirement which require hiding Search, Advance,Administration etc Header banner and Home, Catalog, Dashboard etc menu banner in OBIEE 11g for some dashboard.
What i need is only the dashboard content to be displayed without any menus or bars even dashboard page name.
I m working on obiee 11g. I m not familiar with customized .css file or xml.
Which .css file or .xml file need to be modified? How?
Please advice.
Thanks advance!
VinceThank you, Christian & CSS.
Your updates is very helpfull. I can remove most of these labels.
But Administration, Sign Out, Alert(We have ibots) , Signed In As weblogic are still there, i could not see any label related these links in file saw.sessioninfos.xml.
And also i did remove below:
<resource id="kmsgHeaderAdministration" />
<resource id="kmsgHeaderLogout" />
<resource id="kmsgHeaderAlerts" />
<resource id="kmsgHeaderLoggedInAs" />
in saw.header.xml file, restarted all server, it did not work. How to remove the others?
Another concern is can we remove these only for serval dashboard, not for the whole application?
If we can remove the whole banner instead of removing Label and Link, that would be perfect.

I normally do this to fix this problem
1>Disable the network , keep the loopback adaptor enabled and then restart the services.
2> You can enable the network after services are restarted.
If you want a more practical solution and dont want to disable network again and again, then you would find the blog below useful.
