Pass Parameter Through REST API into PivotChart in Excel Services 2013

Is it possible to pass a parameter through the REST API into the filter of a PivotChart and return a filtered view of the chart? I've figured it out mechanically, and can pass the parameter in - but the chart doesn't refresh with the new filter.
For the record, I've looked at all of the online documentation on passing parameters and you'll note those all depict passing parameters into a table - not a PivotTable.
Curious if Excel Services 2013 has made any progress in that regard.
Thanks in advance...

Obviously it's not working for pivot tables/charts. Just found this in the SharePoint logs:

Query listitems by view through REST api

I've created a custom view, and I want to access the list items based on this view through REST api.
I've tried .../_api/web/lists(listguid)/view(viewguid)/items, but it seems not working.
Is it possible, any ideas?
Thanks,
Laszlo

Hi,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to grab a list view via REST. You can get the syntax for what you can grab for a list with REST by typing something like this into your browser and viewing the page source:
https://domain/sites/sitename/_api/web/lists(guid'4065067c-e4b8-46d5-a433-76b27f508d1d')
Simply view the source of this page once you have logged into your SharePoint site. You will see all the possible href values you can use based on your list guid (obviously you'll have to change the values above to match your data).
What you can do with REST is to use certain parameters to filter your list (similar to how OOTB list views do). Check out these pages with some examples of what I mean:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dn198245.aspx (Scroll down to Advanced Operations where they talk about $select, $filter, etc.).

Pass parameter through standard page "import xml content and actions"

Dear Portal experts,
As you know, a standard portal page is configured to allow the import of XML file. It is located in the portal in the path system admin -> transport -> xml content and actions -> import
I configured a quick link u201Cimportu201D to the page so now the link http://myserver:port/irj/portal/import allows me to access directly to this screen.
What I would like to do now is to pass the parameter related to u201Cfile nameu201D through this screen meaning that I would like that http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/filename=C:\test.xml fills automatically the fields u201CXML fileu201D with C:\test.xml
Please do you know how to achieve this ?
Thank you very much and regards

hi,
@Maksim :
When user launch an URL like http://myserver:port/irj/portal/ import/*filename=C:\test.xml, he is requested to provide username and password; as this link is a shortcut for the upload xml page, there is a check of authorization and only portal admin that have authorization and permission on this page/iview will be able to upload xml file through the URL. Hope this clarify.
@Kumar :
thank you for your answer. What a pity to not be able to pass parameter through standard portal page/iview particularly knowing that we can pass paramater through many kinds of iviews (transactional iview, url iview, VC iview...). I explored some option on file com.sap.portal.ivs.init.par but this was unsuccessful. However, thanks to this [link bellow|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ComponenttouploadXMLfilewithPCD+objects], I was able to upload through URL the XML file.
The problem is that I can upload only XML file that are stored in the server not in the local user computer. My requirement is to be able to upload local XML file stored on user's computer.
If someone could provide and idea/solution, I would be very grateful.
Cheers

How to request multi-machine blueprint information through rest api.

We are building a portal in front of vRealize (don't ask me why) and I need to dynamically create multi-machine json files to request catalog items.
If I connect through the api I can request the Blueprint details but not the additional blueprints it makes use of.
Does anyone know how to request these additional information out of the rest api catalog?
Thx in advance.

The following method, unlike those above, will work. It requires you to know the MIME type of the binary file you wish to upload. This example uploads a PDF document.
uploader.cfm
<cfset restInitApplication(expandPath("."))>
<cfhttp url="http://localhost:8500/rest/myRestApp/myService" method="post">
<cfhttpparam file="C:\temp\testDoc.pdf" mimetype="application/pdf" name="myFile" type="file">
</cfhttp>
service.cfc
<cfcomponent rest="true" restpath="/myService">
<cffunction name="getFile" access="remote" httpMethod="POST" returntype="string">
<cffile action="upload" accept="application/pdf" filefield="myFile" nameconflict="overwrite" destination="C:\Users\BKBK\Desktop\testFile.pdf">
<cfreturn "File uploaded!">
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>

How to import the JSON data that comes from REST API into Excel 2013?

HI,
Is there a way to import the JSON data that REST API returns into Excel 2013? If so how?
Could you please let me know this?
If you need to know any more info please let me know.
Thanks,
Vinay

I got this. We need to use power query add in for this.
EXCEL 2013 -> POWER QUERY -> From Web
Enter the URL for the REST end point and click ok. Power Query editor will show up with the URL and list of your data.
click on the list -> Right click->drill down
You will see the no of records the API returned.
Right Click on List in that table -> To Table and say ok in the next dialog.
On the displayed columns, there will be a double sided arrow, click on that and select the rows you want to import.
There you go. You will all the data.
Click on Apply and close. This will import the data into your excel file.

How to Send pdf from Salesforce to Echosign through REST API?

I'm trying to send PDF generated from Visualforce page and through Apex REST I'm trying to invoke Echosign REST API. But while invoking "/transientDocument" URL, it says Unsupported content type. Any help on how to construct multipart/form-data in Salesforce?

I'm afraid it's a bit beyond me, but why not use the ready-made Echosign for Salesforce application you can download from the app exchange?

Delete Yammer Group through REST API

Hi All,
Is there any REST API from yammer which enables us to delete Yammer groups. We would just have to pass groupid(s) to the rest api url and my yammer groups should get deleted.
I tried googling but could not find any. except these: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/group_memberships.json?group_id=:4309911 which just deletes user from a group. Is there any rest api to delete the group itself ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Subhash S.

Passing parameter through url to report

Hi
I'm sorry if this question already exist anywhere in forum i didnt found it.
so my question is:
CAN I PASS PARAMETER VIA URL TO REPORT USING WEBFORM
i don have RAS(Because in beta version of 2008 is this not included)
I tried
http://localhost/CRWEB/Default.aspx?param0="value" ->here i'm prompt for value instead of showing report with set value
and
http://localhost/CRWEB/DocumentDoc.rpt?param0=krneki&init=html_page -> here i prompt to save rpt file
so But both doesnt work!
OR it is necessery to have RAS to pass parameters through url
thanks for quick answer

URL reporting and RAS are not available with CR2008. To view reports over the web you will need to use the Crsytal Reports for .NET runtime engine inside a .NET app. This engine is licensed with CR 2008.

Data Centers URL through Rest API

Hi All,
Below is the set of question:
Is hitting the API https://login.eloqua.com/id is the only way to get the endpoint specific to User?
Does the endpoint remains same every time or it changes?
Suppose I have purchased the license. The license is valid for 10 user. Do the endpoints will differ for the 10 users?
Awaiting your response.
Thanks in advance.

Accessing Iteration Dates through REST API

How should I go about getting the start and end dates for an iteration through the API?
If I attempt to access the iteration directly (using the URL retrieved by /_apis/wit/classificationnodes/iterations/{parent}&$depth=2) I receive a 'Node ID is not recognized' error:
"$id": "1",
"innerException": null,
"message": "TF51541: The Node ID is not recognized.",
"typeName": "Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.Metadata.WorkItemTrackingTreeNodeNotFoundException, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a",
"typeKey": "WorkItemTrackingTreeNodeNotFoundException",
"errorCode": 0,
"eventId": 3200
Is there another mechanism for getting this data?

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your post.
We can get the Iteration using general TFS API, it also works with VSO, please refer to the replies in this post:https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/6e6a8c5a-bb2a-4b51-9a43-df3c06448f1b/get-sprint-details-from-tfs?forum=tfsgeneral

How to pass parameter through URL to bounded task flow with page fragment

I want to pass parameter to Bounded Task Flow With Page Fragment trough URL
as I start this taks flow with router and according to this Param I will rout the user.
I added input param to taks flow named direction and make the task flow called URL invoke url-invoke-allowed
<input-parameter-definition id="__41">
      <name id="__42">direction</name>
      <value>#{pageFlowScope.direction}</value>
      <class>java.lang.String</class>
    </input-parameter-definition>but I don't know how to add this to the JSPX that I will add the bounded task flow Inside.
and How to pass this from URL

Hi,
url-invoke-allowed is only required if the task flow itself is directly accessible from a browser (which is not the case at all if the task flow uses page fragments). To pass input parameters to a task flow that is embedded in a region and that has input parameters, you define the input parameters on the taskFlow Id that is created in the PageDef file of the containing page. To learn ADF task flows, have a look at the videos below. They also contain a sample for passing parameters to a region

Passing Parameter through SOAP Header in ODIInvokeWebService

How to pass parameters in SOAP Header in ODIInvokeWebService and not just in SOAP Body?
Background:
One of our web service provider expects certain parameters set in SOAP Header. Currently, ODIInvokeWebService allows to set parameters through SOAP (Request) Body and not through SOAP Header.
How can we set and send parameters in SOAP Header when using ODIInvokeWebService. Can we set this in a request file. Any workaround?
BTW is this a limitation in the tool. If yes, I am looking for a work around. I can setup a proxy service/servlet and re-route the request to the provider but I would like to know if there is a work that can be done easily through ODIInvokeWebService before I look for other options.
Appreciate your help.
Thank you.
-Muthu

Hi Muthu ,
This is not supported by the ODIInvokeWS Tool.
There are some ER logged against this and may be it will get implemented in ODI 11g

Document Set Creation in document library using REST API in Sharepoint 2013

Hi,
I want to create the document set using REST API call. Currently i am able to create the folder and able to upload the files using REST API's in the document library. Is there any way we can pass the contentype name or Id and create the document set using
REST API call. We need to create the document set along with metadata and upload the files inside the document set.
I need to create the document set along with meta data column values using REST API. Please let me know how we can achieve this through REST API.
Thank you,
Mylsamy

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create document set along with managed metadata fields.
The REST API does not currently support working with Managed Metadata or Taxonomy fields.
As a workaround, we can use the JavaScript Client Object Model.
