OBIEE integration with ADF

Hi ,
JDEV 11.1.1.4
I want to pass some parameter from adf screen to OBIEE based on which OBIEE report will be generated.
I know we can use BI ADF Components to embed report created in OBIEE into jspx. but how to pass parameter from ADF page to OBIEE.

The question is what interface does OBIEE provide for accepting parameters?
If it reads parameters from the URL you can use a goLink component in ADF Faces that has the URL constructed at runtime.
If it uses Web sevices to invoke reports and pass parameters you can do WS calls on the model layer.

OBIEE Integration with ADF - Reports with bind variables

Hi,
I've managed to integrate obiee with ADF by following the steps described in:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/adf-bip-ucm-integration-179699.pdf
This is all fine and all but what about reports with complex queries where bind variables are needed?
In short I need to send specific values from ADF application as parameters to the query of the report before building it, then create it and download the file as pdf.
I don't have problems with building the file and downloading it when the query in the report has no bind variables, but when it does I do not know how to send them to the report.
I can't seem to find such an implementation or example anywhere and I am stuck.
Could anyone please point me in the right direction, eighter by providing a solution, or a link to such an example?
Thank you!
P.S.
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 and JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0

Avaya(Non-java app) integration with ADF

Hi,
We have a desktop application Avaya (non-Java) & want to integrate it with ADF. Currently we do it by passing parameters in HTTP URL. If the user clicks on a button in non-java app, it should:
(1) open search page of an ADF application and execute search.
(2) if the ADF application is already open, the button on Avaya app should execute search with partial page refresh. However, the whole page is being refreshed.
Can you please guide, how to do this with partial page refresh? , as the No 1 is almost achieved.
Thanks,
NC

Hi Shay,
Below Options were tried for integration. Please have a look at them and suggest if there is any other possible way to Integrate Avaya with ADF.
1) Calling ADF application with URL parameters.
Reasons to drop:
Every time a URL is called the entire page will get rendered again taking some 2-3 seconds which is very critical to the application.
ADF is capable of handling URL parameters without re-loading the whole page(http://oracamp.com/passing-parameters-adf-application-through-url). But we can't use this inbuilt way as we have many customized developments implemented in the page. This way directly works at AMImpl (at Model level) level. We want the events to be fired at View level. That is backing bean level.
2) Avaya is capable of dealing with ActiveX (OCX). They sent me 2 DLLs which handles communication between web page and Avaya application. A simulator was also sent (bundle attached herewith). The steps to be carried out for testing are-
Installation procedures:
i. Register the DTLCRMINT.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
ii. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
iii. Register the DTLINTCMP.ocx file. Start->Run-> Type the command
iv. regsvr32 <ocx file location>
v. Double click on the Clinet.exe it would open up a windows application with a Textbox and Command button. Put In the data which needs to be sent.
vi. Open the CRM Page.html. On opening the OCX would be loaded by default.
vii. Now clicking the Send Data button on the client application, whatever information is there in the Client Text Box would be sent to the web page.
viii. From CRM side, the application needs to use the OCX provided, and must wait for the event. On receiving the event the data that is retrieved as a part of the event can be parsed to update the text box and click on the search button.
Reasons to drop:
It works fine with basic HTML page. But once integrated with ADF page as an inline frame it doesn't work. We tried to embed the OCX object inside <verbatim> tags, but was not successful. The event fired by ActiveX object is triggered at client side by VBScript function. Avaya's ActiveXs seem to be only working with VBScript according to my understanding. So there was no way for ADF to capture VBScript events.
ADF is capable of javascript up to some extent. To do a critical application like this, my feeling is javascript is never a good option.
3) To use a text file. Avaya writes, ADF application reads.
Reasons to drop:
ADF can read the text files with normal java IO methods. But only the server directories are visible. So, Avaya has to write the information in the server file. With using a parameter like user name, ADF application can read the file in regular time intervals (with using poll feature) and get relevant information and automatically run the search.
Initially the idea was to do this at client side. But since this is a web application, file reading at client side is next to impossible. Again when one side is reading and the other side is writing, file access violations may occur.
4) Another option is if Avaya can offer the value in a web service, the ADF application can get it.
Reasons to drop:
There may occur a latency as well as Avaya says they can't offer web services.
5) The ideal solution is, the ADF application's front end control's IDs can be provided. If the Avaya system is capable of accessing or getting hold of DOM and pushing the value to the controls and clicking the button; things would become pretty straight forward. JMeter works like this in testing J2EE applications.
Any Recommendations how can it be done .
Thanks.

Exchange 2013 owa integration with ADFS and cooexistance with exchange 2007

Team,
I have successfully integrated adfs 3.0 and Exchange 2013 owa and ecp. However, we have a coexistence environment with exchange 2007. When you access owa, which then redirects you to adfs, sign-in, and then get redirected back to owa. If your
mailbox is still within exchange 2007, you get a blank login page. If you mailbox is in exchange 2013 then you successfully get the owa page for 2013. The problem is that all exchange 2007 mailbox users get blank pages at login. So I have determined
that exchange 2013 cas is not doing the service location lookup on the mailbox to determine if a redirect to the legacy owa address is needed. Is there a configuration setting that I might be missing? Or does the integration with adfs and owa not support
the much needed mailbox lookup for a coexistance environment? A side note: if we enable FBA with owa, both login scenarios work just fine (legacy and new 2013). The legacy namespace has been created, and applied to the exchange 2007 urls.

Can Oracle Application Express (APEX) be integrated with ADF applications?

Hi All,
Oracle Application Express (APEX) works on various supported databases. Can this tool be integrated with ADF for report publishing, in adf some of my result is coming from Business Components , so can these things be related to each other?
Please provide a suitable forum to ask this question if this question doesn't fir in ambit of this forum.
Thanks in advance.

There are a couple of things you can do - a lot depends on what your application needs. Since you ask this in the JDeveloper forum, I'm going to address getting to ApEx from ADF, not to ADF from ApEx - but some of the same possibilities apply.
Easiest thing to do is to jump into the ApEx application with a af:goLink or af:goCommand referencing the needed page's URL. By setting the target, you can control whether it opens in a new window or the same window. I'm not currently using ApEx, but I have a few reports written as PL/SQL Server Pages that I call exactly this way.
You can also open the ApEx pages in an af:inlineFrame - and it will look like it is inside your ADF application - but use inline frames with a little caution - they don't work perfectly in all browsers, notably Mobile Safari.
ApEx can't look inside your ADF BC objects, but of course, if your two applications are using the same database, you can communicate between them within the database. One possibility to look at is Advanced Queuing.
Some ApEx functionality can be executed by executing the underlying PL/SQL procedures - do a search in this forum for how to call PL/SQL from an ADF BC Application Module.

OBIEE Integration with Oracle Access Manager (OAM)

Hi All,
I am new to OBIEE and not familiar with Security part. We have one request from the client to have OBIEE Integration with Oracle Access Manager (OAM) through eternal identity management tool (OID/other LDAP).

Does anyone has document or know good portal which gives step by step information on how to Integrate OBIEE with OAM using external identity management tool?
Appreciate if you share the information.

Ebusiness suite integration with ADF

HI there xperts!
I am having a lot of trouble trying to decipher the multitude of information around for integrating Jdeveloper ADF applications with ebusiness 12.1.3
Essentially, I have created a number of view pages, in my application but now need to call some API's to add transactional capabilities.
My undertstanding at this time, is to actually expose web services and call those in ADF using web service data controls.
I have been able to go to the integration repository and deploy the APIs. It is at this point I get stuck. Do I have to use BPEL / Oracle Service BUS?
Or can I now access these exposed services directly from ADF. If so, how? I can see addresses specific to our environment in the WSDL file, however, these are invalid when I try to create a web service data control.
My second question, when deploying to a client site, do these details need to be updated each time (ie, there will be specific addresses for each environment?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

BPM Tasklist Integration with ADF Application

Hi Experts,
We are using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.7 in our project and need to integrate with Oracle BPM 11g. We basically need to see the BPM task list as well as initiate a new task from ADF Application.
I have already searched the blogs and internet about the same. Below are some of them along with andrejus blogs.
Con-Fusion, Bugs, Facts & Workarounds: ADF-BPM Integration: Custom Worklist.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_ws_taskflows.htm#BPMUG20812
What I am looking for is step by step process including the things which needs to be done on Weblogic and domain side to integrate task list with adf application.
Thanks

It seems all of the instructions are there on your second link. When it comes to doing the weblogic portions there are links from there to another guide. I found the following two other links but your second link looks the closest to what I remember from an internal document that had those same steps.

Forms 11 integration with ADF 11g Example

Hi,
i found the nice screencast Screencast, it shows the interaction Forms 11 and ADF 11...
Now my question:
Is there some more information / tutorials for building Forms 11-Applications which interacts with ADF-11?
kind regards
Martin

Hi Martin, I probably need to set the expectations in that we will look to put together some samples/demos/howtos on integrating Forms and ADT graphs but thats something for the next 6 months (and you probably need something yesterday).
In terms of calling ADF from Forms and visa versa, since both are launched from URLs so you can simply call something like web.show_document('ADF URL'). However, I think we really need to look deeper since there are different ways of integrating Forms and Java applications. Maybe what you really want to do is something like
http://groundside.com/blog/GrantRonald.php?title=oracle_forms_and_google_charts&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
I'm also interested in the business motivation - why do you want to migrate Forms to ADF - if its simply so you can leverage features like charting - maybe the above example could help.

3rd party payment integration with ADF application

Hi ADF experts,
We have a requirement to integrate our ADF application with 3rd party payment gateway.
For this we have created 2 servlets(one to post data, and one for relay response) which will talk to payment gateway.
Since we are using servelts, we wont have access to bindings or any of ADF features. We manage the handshake between servlets and ADF app by passing data through session variables.
I am not happy with this solution, even though it works in our test environment. I would prefer a complete ADF soultion rather than using servelts/jsps.
Is there a standard way(either inbuilt in ADF or extensions) to integrate 3rd party gateway with ADF application which is safe and secure?
Jdev used: 11.1.1.1.5
Payment gateway used: authorize.net
thanks
-Venkat

You can access adf application module from a servlet. All you have to do its to setup a pagedef for the servlet.Check out my blog http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/12/16/jdev11-1-2-1-0-handling-imagesfiles-in-adf-part-3/ Which shows how to do this.
I'm not aware of standard integration to a payment service.

OBIEE integration with Hyperion

Hi All,
I am currently working in an OBIEE project where we are having OBI integration with hyperion. All integration and reporting part is working well but we got an issue in our OBI report because of restructuring of hyperion cube hierarchy.
We have any OBIE- Hyperion integrated report,
We have an issue regarding the hyperion hierarchy. In our previous project release we have a report where we are generating report on the basis of product hierarchy, part number(Hyperion Cube) which is at the 7th level of Product dimension at that time.
In this week there is a restructuring of the product hierarchy where they have added one more level i.e, Level 8, and the part number earlier which is coming from level 7 now at level 8.
To resolve this we have manually added level 8 in the existing cube for the part number in OBI repository, but it not returning any result for Level 8 still it is pointing to Level 7.
Instead of this when I reimported the cube, the data is coming for level 8 as expected.
Please suggest how to resolve this issue without reimporting the cube, because we already developed the report on the basis of level 7(Previous Release).
If we go for reimport option, then again we have so much of re-work.
Please help me out in resolving this issue, if any other option available.
Thanks in Advance,
Prithvi
