Output Bookmark URL to dashboard page

Hi,
Once the user selects 'Create Bookmark Link' from the 'Page Options', is there any way in 11g to output the bookmark URL to the dashboard page/alert rather than the address bar?

RegardsHi,
There is no such in-built functionality available to do that, but one work around I can think of is using the new favorites functionality. You can navigate through the catalog and add the object's that you think are most used by you to the favorite's section. As you probably already know, there is a favorites menu link which you can access these objects you have Favorited from.
For more details refer to this on step to step guide for using favorites: http://deliverbi.blogspot.com/2012/03/obiee-11116-favourites.html
Thanks,

Bookmark link on Dashboard page (11g)

Experts,
We have Placed the Create Bookmark link below the reports i.e. we did the below
Action link -> Edit Action link - Text as Create Bookmark Link in Link Text -> Action -> Navigate to BI Content (Dashboard page from Shared folder) -> click OK ->
Check enable the Add to Briefing Book -> Click OK.
For the above it will directly open the dashboard page, but we need to create Prompted bookmark link i.e. where we'll give the prompts values and create the prompted bookmark link, it should open the dashboard page with filtered data.
*(We know the option is available in Edit Dashboard - Create Prompted link, this option should come below the report)*
Thanks,
Balaa...

Kavitha,
Add a Action link -> Edit Action link - give text like Create Bookmark Link in Link Text -> Action
Select the Dashboard page from Shared folder -> click OK -> Check enable the Add to Briefing Book -> Click OK.
Thanks,

Error accessing Dashboard page

I received error message while accessing "Dashboards" page (under "Administration" menu) as shown below.
This error occurs only when I go to "Data Workshop" page and followed by going to "Dashboard" page. It seems that the URL for dashboard page is incorrect.
It's not a big issue but I wonder whether the urls for admin menu is hard-coded and the developer entered the wrong page id. ;)
Contact your application administrator.
ERR-1016 Application "4350" Page "3" not found (requested language="en")
-Gary
Edited:
This occurs on APEX 4.0

Thanks Gary,
I can confirm that I reproduced the error you've reported. Thanks for outlining the steps to reproduce it, that was a great help. The link from the Administration drop-down menu to "Dashboards" is incorrect, it's going to pg 4350:3 instead of pg 4350:33. I've logged bug 9941099 to track this issue, and a fix will be available in our next release. In the meantime, as you're aware, if you click the Administration tab, you can navigate to the Dashboards via the Dashboards icon on the Administration page, pg 4350:1.
Thanks again for reporting this.
Regards,
Hilary

OBIEE 11g: Subscribe to Agents through Dashboard page?

Hi all,
I have created a set of agents which would deliver personalized content to subscribing users based on their OBIEE username. The agents work great, however I am stuck at finding a simpler way to allow various users to subscribe to said agents.
The standard subscription method is cumbersome: Go to Catalog, browse to where agents are, Click More, select Subscribe. I don't want my users wandering around through a pretty thick catalog only to subscribe to an agent. Chances are they'll wander off, mess up, fail to subscribe or not even bother to try in the first place. What I would rather do is have them go to a dashboard and click on something to subscribe directly, without caring where the agents are located.
A dodgy workaround I have implemented is to put up a link to an URL which is the catalog location of the agents. Users would click on that link and they will see the list of agents, allowing them to subscribe/unsubscribe. Still, I would like to simplify this further, if possible. Any ideas?

Hi All,
I am trying to display ‘help’ section on every dashboard or Create a separate Help Dashboard Page …
Tried using "Link or Image" object option and Uploaded the pdf’s to Help file *(/Shared Folders/Help)* – Let say the PDF Name is Employee_Expenses.pdf
So I am using the URL for link object as
URL= saw.dll?downloadFile&path=%2Fshared%2FHelp%2FEmployee_Expenses.pdf
Image = fmap:Images/help.gif (Do I need to have help.gif in /Shared Folders/Help folder Cause I don’t have it…)
It’s not working – Any Ideas….
Thanks,
Syed

Getting "Error 403--Forbidden" while accessing ADF bookmarked URL

Hi,
Here am trying to work with an ADF application to suport bookmarking.
Following are the steps I did to create a sample application.
Created a bounded task-flow (user-details.xml), which has the "Method call" as default activity along with an another view activity(userData.jsff page).
This task-flow takes an input parameter "Id" to display user details. In the method call activity user data will be initialized using the given input parameter and then the data will be displayed using userData.jsff page.
Created a view activity (details.jspx page) in adfc-config.xml file.
Marked the "details.jspx" file as bookmark-able by changing "Bookmark property to true" and given a Bookmark URL Parameter "Name is Id and Value is #{pageFlowScope.user_id}".
Dropped the bounded task-flow user-details.xml as a region into the details.jspx file.
Now the user_id which is coming as URL Parameter will be passed to user-details.xml task-flows input parameter value.
Created users.jspx page which lists all the users as home page. In the users.jspx page we'll have a link to user details page with a parameter Id.
By running the application will get users page. When I click on the user details link in the users page, the app showing user details page as expected.
Now I bookmarked the user details page. If I open the bookmarked page in the same tab, it is working fine. But when I open this bookmark in a new tab getting the "Error 403--Forbidden" response.
Bookmarked URL: localhost:7101/BookmarkTestApp-ViewController-context-root/faces/user_details?id=123&_afrWindowMode=0&_afrLoop=4884151149818&_adf.ctrl-state=35yghmx4f_18
When I click the above bookmark in another tab the url is processing for few seconds ( 2 to 3 seconds) and converts to localhost:7101/BookmarkTestApp-ViewController-context-root/ and giving 403 response. At this time it is not touching my beans at all (verified this by running the server in debug mode).
Web.xml looks like:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

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]

Passing data and command in url of the page

Hi,
I have a developed a page which has material as input field on first page
now on press of button on that page ,it feteches the data related to that material in the input processing of that page and display output on other page.
now i want to display out directly ,supressing the first page.
so is there a way where i can pass data + command (button press) in the url of that page so it will execute on i/p processing of this page directly and displays the o/p on other page.
for eg... ?matnr=x.....(what to write for button click so it executes on i/p processing directly)
Remember my code for fetching the data is on the first page in input processing,so i need to call this page itself.

Hi Sushi,
I wouldn't do it quite the way you are - I would only build one page.
Make MATNR an auto page attribute. Then in onInitialization you can test
if MATNR is not initial.
and then fetch the data.
In the layout you can either display the input field, call it MATNR, and any error messages from the fetch data code or if the data was fetched okay display the results.
Now you can call the page with ?matnr=X and it will work.
Cheers

I used to have bookmarks showing on a page called library

It would have a group of URLS (in this case URLs for safelists).
Each safelist had 3 entries on the same line:
1. Page name
2. Date last visited
3. Actual URL to the page
I could then right click on a line and get the option of opening the safelist in a new tab or on a new page.
It was very useful to me and I would dearly like to get this facility back.

See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-use-bookmarks
There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at near the top of the drop-down list
If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu as well as the tooltip of the star changes to "Edit This Bookmark".

Creating Bookmarkable URLs - two or more parameters

I followed the tutorial "Creating Bookmarkable URLs" and I was able to pass 1 parameter OK with values from a database. I don't know the syntax for multiple parameters, though, when using the IDE Design view. I really would like to have bookmarkable URLs using multiple parameters.
In the url property for the group of hyperlinks, I tried:
/faces/Report.jsp?testableentityconfigId=#{currentRow.value['testableentityconfig.testableEntityConfigID']}&modelId=#{currentRow.value['device.deviceModelID']}
When I run the program, the url in the address bar looks like this:
/Reporting/faces/Report.jsp?testableentityconfigId=%23%7BcurrentRow.value%5B'testableentityconfig.testableEntityConfigID'%5D%7D&%3BmodelId=5
The desired output would look like this:
/Reporting/faces/Report.jsp?testableentityconfigId=2&modelId=5

I tried it (using the TRAVEL FLIGHT table) and it worked for me.
My url property setting in the Properties window looks like this:
/faces/Details.jsp?flightId=#{currentRow.value['FLIGHT.FLIGHTID']}&tripId=#{currentRow.value['FLIGHT.TRIPID']}My JSP looks like this:
<webuijsf:hyperlink binding="#{Page1.hyperlink1}" id="hyperlink1" text="text" url="/faces/Details.jsp?flightId=#{currentRow.value['FLIGHT.FLIGHTID']}&tripId=#{currentRow.value['FLIGHT.TRIPID']}"/>

Need help with 'Output Folder URL'

How can I compile my application and have it get posted on a
server?
When I create a project, in the “Flex Build Path”
I add my server URL in the 'Output Folder URL' field. But when I
Run my project, it doesn't even seem to attempt to push any files
to the server. It just brings up my browser with the path to it,
which it obviously gets a 404 error. And its going to need a
username and password to post files to a server. Where would I
assign theses value to Flex Builder?

After I installed Apache Ant and tinkered with it for about 5
hours, I have what initially wanted. The code below will compile,
copy and launch. I also made a splash logo that appears when its
building. Ant is a nice utility for automated development.

How to invoke Custom HTML pages on Dashboard page when running OBIEEon AIX

Hi,
i am facing an issue with regards to invoking a custom HTML page( say definitions.html) using html code inside a text section( with html markup) on a dashboard page.
I have performed the following configuration on Windows and it perfectly works well
However i can get the same to work on AIX where i actually needed it to work:)
Could any of you please provide any insights over this issue pls? am i missing something obvious? Appreciate your inputs.
Here is the description of the configuration performed.
Created a HTML file called definitions.html
copied the file in the following folders
OracleBI\web\app\res
OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\Missing_
I have created a new folder called _Missing.
I restarted the app server
HTML code on the Dashboard Page ( used Text section with HTML Markcup)
Help
I have checked the permissions on the custom page and it loosk fine. I have added <HardenXSS> false</HardenXSS>tag to my instanceconfig.xml but not luck yet
Appreciate your inputs
Thanks

The easiest thing for you to do is to download the Oracle BI SampleApp (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/obiee-samples-167534.html) and follow their instructions for install/creating/deploying the analyticsRes application on the Oracle BI Application Server. This will allow you to have a URL such as http://myserver.obiee.com:9704/analyticRes/definitions.html on the same server system as your Oracle BI server. This way the port and domain are the same as your Oracle BI Server and you can simply place any additional web based file in that deployed application path to reference on your Oracle BI Server.

What is the best method for bookmarkable URLs

Hi Everyone,
I've been working with JSF for a little while now, and I've been using RestFaces ( [https://restfaces.dev.java.net/|https://restfaces.dev.java.net/] ) for my bookmarkable URLs, but there are still a few limitations, like, when validations phase occurs, the real path to the JSF page is exposed (currently working on a fix, but it's lead me to ask some other questions.)
What has everyone's experience been?
I want to be able to use Pretty URLs as Links, commandButtons (aka, as a result of an action method / or any navigation event).
So:
http://mysite.com/app/viewuser/username1
This URL should bring me to the viewUser page... and if they choose to take an action, "Edit a user" by clicking a command button for example, then they should be redirected to the editUser page, which should still have a pretty URL: http://mysite.com/app/edituser/username1
Effectively, I want to alias a pretty URL to a page:
/Login -> /faces/login.jspx
/viewUser/{username} -> /faces/viewUser.jspx (and also sets the username parameter based on the value parsed from the URL)
/editUser/{username} -> /faces/editUser.jspx (and also sets the username parameter based on the value parsed from the URL)
I know PrettyURLPhaseListener helps with this, but it does not enable rendering of pretty URLs after navigation like RESTfaces does.
Thoughts? Thanks.

Ok, so I solved my problem by creating a JSF extension.
[ PrettyFaces|http://ocpsoft.com/prettyfaces/]
I wrote it recently and released it as opensource in order to fix some of the major problems with existing JSF URL mapping tools.

Bookmarking Url

Hi there,
 I have an application with a front-servlet that handles all the requests
 from the browser.
 Sometimes the request comes as submit-button requests and sometimes the
 servlet
 is activated from a href.
 When the submit button is used a servlet is activated with a post
 method,which prevents
 user from bookmarking Url. This is all fine.
 How can I do the same when the user clicks on a href ?
 I want the servlet to get activated without exposing the command and
 parameters in the Url.
 Is that possible ?
 Should I use JavaScript ?
 ..thanks in advance
 Per Lovdinger


There are two things that web apps perform:
 - do
 - show
 You should typically not have "do" items bookmarkable. That means that a
 POST from a form should not be the resultant page's URL.
 Consider:
 page1 -> post -> page2
 This is usually accomplished by page2 being returned by the Servlet that
 handles the POST. If instead, the Servlet returns a Javascript redirect (or
 does a sendRedirect) to the page2 URL, then the user can save the bookmark.

Reg: Dashboard page Name not getting displayed.

Hi
I have created a dashboard Dashboard1 and it has 5 different pages
pg1 thru pg5. I have 5 users USER1,USER2.USER3,USER4 and USER5.
I have assigned each page to a user and all the users have access to Dashboard1
i.e
USER1 pg1 of Dashboard1
USER2 pg2 of Dashboard1
USER3 pg3 of Dashboard1
USER4 pg4 of Dashboard1
USER5 pg5 of Dashboard1
The problem is name of the pages is not displayed once the dashboard is accessed after log on..The report attached to that page is displaying data, but page name on the tab is blank...
Could anybody help me with this information pls..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
When a single page is placed on the Dashboard it will not show the page name as it won't show any tab on the Dashboard. This is happening by default.
This case applies to your scenario as you restricting those pages among the users.
To just check, give the permissions to the user1 to view 2 dashboard pages instead of 1. Then you can able to see the page names on the tabs as 2 pages are on the Dashboard for that user.
I am also not aware of displaying the Page name when there is a single page on the dashboard...:(
