Possible to access data outside the portal?

Hi all,
Im currently checking the features available in the adobe forms.
Is it possible to dynamically load an adobe form (for example drop downs)
with data outside the Portal,
Using maybe Web services?
And send data from the adobe form to the portal by webservices,
without having to upload the form,
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Best regards,
Paulo Ruivo

In Designer in the SAP development environment, you can specify a Data Connection based on a WSDL (Web service). If you tie the update of these fields to e.g. a button, you can update the related fields in the form at runtime.
In general, you don't send data to the Portal, which is basically a frame in which you run different applications. The data is usually sent to the SAP db through an application using the form. You can use HTTP/Web services to submit data to the SAP application/database, but this is independent of the Portal.
Kind regards,

Retrieving data outside the bursting select tree

Hi,
When bursting according to a specific location in my data, I find that I cannot access fields outside the scope of the 'select' in the control file.
I have the following xml file:
<DATA>
_<CONTROL_AREAS>
__<CONTROL_AREA>
___<CNAME>Control Area Name</CNAME>
___<BRANCHES>
____<BRANCH>
_____<DIVISIONS>
______<DIVISION>
_______<AGENTS>
________<AGENT>
________</AGENT>
_______</AGENTS>
______</DIVISION>
_____</DIVISIONS>
____</BRANCH>
___</BRANCHES>
__</CONTROL_AREA>
_</CONTROL_AREAS>
</DATA>
My select request in my control file tries to burst according to branches as follows:
<xapi:request select="/DATA/CONTROL_AREAS/CONTROL_AREA/BRANCHES/BRANCH">
My report template however, needs to be able to display "CNAME" which is a node in the /DATA/CONTROL_AREAS/CONTROL_AREA section of data. Opening the generated report shows a blank space where the field 'CNAME' should be.
Is this information available when I use a 'select' to somewhere inside the tree?
Or do I need to create a new template each time to display the outer data?
I tried many XPATH combinations but was unable to get that to work either.
Thanks in advance!

The workaround for this is really easy. If prunning is taking place, re-organize the burst file to start with the deepest node then work back. I was able to get it to work correctly. You will need to remove the C:\\. I have to do this because I'm running locally on my pc.
There is no need to re-write your query....

Whether we can able to save the data in the portal side or not?

Hi All,
Could anyone please tell me, whether we can able to save the data in the portal side or not, if possible can you please explain the procedure.
Thanks in advance,
Siva.

If you are familiar with java then you can use the usual jdbc / odbc driver to connect. Do search the forums, this has already been discussed many times before, if you encounter a road block do post back.....
You can also refer to this blog, though it talks about CE 7.1 the concepts remain the same, the configuration screens might differ - Connecting an Application to an External Database in SAP NW CE 7.1
Did some searhing for you refer these also

Problems while accessing images outside the web document-root folder

Our application runs on Oracle application server on Linux. Facing problems while accessing images outside the web document-root folder. This works with changes in global-web-application.xml by including the <virtual-directory> tag. The same change does not work when done on Linux machine. It is unable to find the image.

This is one of the least satisfactory aspects of site management in Dreamweaver, and several developers, including myself, have been pressuring the Dreamweaver team for some years to improve this. Who knows? They might eventually take notice.
The only way to do this at the moment is to create two site definitions, one nested inside the other. Set up the site definition normally based on htdocs as your site root. Then create a new site definition based on site. Dreamweaver will nag you that it can cause problems, but it won't actually stop you from doing it. The only potential problem is with site synchronization.
The problem with using site as the only basis for your site definition is that Dreamweaver automatically puts things like the Connections, Scripts, and other folders in the site root. So, everything ends up at the wrong level of the site hierarchy. Quite frankly, the whole thing is a bit of a pain. Dynamic site development was added to Dreamweaver only in version 6 (Dreamweaver MX), and no one had really thought through the need to store files outside the site root.

To extract portal activity data from the portal into Solution manager.

HI all,
I need to extract the portal activity data from the portal into Solution Manager BI and then later on into the SAP BW in order to generate BEx reports on the portal activity data. I need to know about the configuartions that are needed to be done on the portal side and the solution manager side so as to get the data into SolMan from portal. Waiting for a response.
Thanks and regards,
Divya.

Hi
In solution manager you can do the analysis of the ADC data files (Portal activity reporting) as as part of the End-to-End Diagnostics (Portal Activity Reporting tab in the End-to-End Workload Analysis).
Will you see the Portal Activity Reporting tab under End-to-End Workload Analysis?
by default PAR in SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 is deactivated ,since we requires
some manual configuration of the Activity Data Collector.
please follow the attached config guide in the SAP note for configuration.

I looks to me that 515 pixels represents 200 meters, so multiply the

Access SharePoint outside the network

Please correct my if I'm wrong or if there are other ways to access SharePoint outside the network with AD authentication
Option 1 - Internal SharePoint Server. Configure reverse proxy and punch a hole in the firewall to access it outside network
Option 2- Setup SharePoint server in the DMZ then configure 1 way trust in the Internal Domain Controller
Option 3 - If both above are not doable setup a UAG in the DMZ
Is there another option that I'm missing ? I'm really looking on implementing Option 1 or 2 but some of the network team doesn't want to punch a hole in the firewall or configure a trust (option 2), but without the trust the only way you can authenticate is
FBA correct?
Thanks in advance
AJ MCTS: SP 2010 Configuration MCSA: Windows 7 If you find this post useful kindly please mark it as an answer :) TY

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to access SharePoint outside the network.
You need to set up a zone with Forms Based Authentication for the people not on the domain
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Is it possible to access Data Domain to retrieve records?

Hello,
I'm using OEID 3.1.
Today i was asked if i know if its possible to access the records stored in the Data Domain to retrieve them.
Actually the question was if there is a way to access the "Database" of the Data Domain to retrieve the data from there.
Is this possible ? Is there a way to retrieve the data from the Data Domain stored?
I can only think it would be possible to retrieve the data but without the information about the columns, only a simple retrieve of information by placing a results table and do an export but maybe there is a way to do a retrieve of the data like a sql export, including information about the metadata, etc..
Regards and thanks for the help.

Frederico,
Are you trying to do it in Clover/Endeca Integrator, a portlet in Studio or your own application?
The Endeca Server uses Web Services to serve requests for data, it's not as simple as say a REST service or writing a SQL Query (though you could make it that easy by writing a quick front-end).
I think this question is not being answered because it's unclear what the "end goal" of what you're trying to do is and why you are trying to do it.
If you're just looking to "play around", download SOAP UI and play around with that. It's a great tool, regardless of what you are trying to do as it will automatically interrogate a WSDL file (the definition of a Web Service) and generate sample requests for you.
If you're looking to export records in Clover....you are (almost certainly) using web services already in your data loading graphs. Check out how something like InitDataDomain uses the Manage web service as an example (or LoadAttributes uses sconfig) and then drop your own web service component on a graph, switch it over to use the Conversation service and try some things.
If you have a custom portlet or front-end looking to use Endeca Server data, Web Services support lots of (nearly all?) coding languages, platforms, etc. It's probably outside the scope of this forum to talk about consuming Web Services in your application, since that's something that thousands of applications do and is more of a Java/C#/your language of choice question. For example:
How to create and consume a simple Web Service using JAX WS » the Open Tutorials

Referencing data outside the bursting select tree in the control file

BIP 5.6.3 / EBS 11.5.10.2 + EBS Bursting Integration patch
I am trying to burst to files in a directory whose name is in the XML, but outside of the bursting select tree, but I have having problems picking up the value.
XML Data:
<DATA>
_<CHECKS>
__<CHECK>
___<CHECK_NUMBER>1234</CHECK_NUMBER>
__<CHECK>
_<CHECKS>
_<DIRECTORY>/u01/DEV/checks/</DIRECTORY>
</DATA>
Bursting select request:
<xapi:request select="/DATA/CHECKS/CHECK">
I am trying to define the output file with:
<xapi:filesystem id="111" output="${../../DIRECTORY}/Check_${CHECK_NUMBER}.pdf"/>
But this isn't working (or ${DATA/DIRECTORY} or ${DATA[1]/DIRECTORY} which have been my only other thoughts with this XML structure) - it is leaving the directory blank and I am getting the following error in the bursting request:
[oracle.apps.xdo.template.FOProcessor][EXCEPTION] IOException is occurred in FOProcessor.setOutput(String) with '/Check_1234.pdf'.
[oracle.apps.xdo.template.FOProcessor][EXCEPTION] java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Check_1234.pdf (Permission denied)
Am I able to refer to DIRECTORY with the XML structure and request select as above or do I need to move DIRECTORY into the select tree and duplicate the value for each check?

Hi,
Unfortunately it is not possible to select data from outside your ‘for each loop’ in the bursting file. So yes, you will need to move ‘DIRECTORY’ into the select tree.

How does one access data in the cloud from two different computers

This isn't a problem but a question anticipating a possible problem.
I have a MacBook Air running os X (version 10.8.2) and a desktop iMac runing 10.7
I notice that when I create a PAGES document on the Macbook Air, it automatically saves to the cloud with a tef extension unless I force the file to save to the hard drive. Data on the hard drive is backed up, of course. But there are files saved to the cloud that are not saved to my external time machine drive.
If I lost the drive on the MacBook Air, can I retrieve the files in the cloud? I have the other computer, but I don't think that OS 10.7.x can access those cloud files and I've been told that the iMac can not be upgraded to 10.8
Even if I could load 10.8 on the IMac--how would I get to those files if I am not on my personal MacBook Air? What's the key to retrieving that data? I've checked some of the manuals that I have and they very happily tell you how to save files to the cloud. There's no discussion on what to do if things go wrong.
I know how I would retrieve my oracle data here at work if I was sitting at another terminal--what's the equivalent process if I was sitting at another mac machine?

Documents saved via the applications in 10.8 can be accessed from iCloud.com on any computer providing you have a mobile iWork application.
Whilst documents are saved to iCloud on your 10.8 Mac, they are also written locally and therefore backed up with something like Time Machine.
if you did update your 10.7 Mac, things would merely become easier, you could access documents saved in (say) pages on one Mac in Pages on the other.

Possible to retrieve data from the backend using online interactive form ?

Hello All,
I am currently developing an online interactive form and in it, a textbox which allows user to search for employee data in the backend in the event that the default name is not correct. However, I noticed that in the proerty field of my interactiveform, there is only OnCheck and OnSubmit. Is it possible for me to make a search in the backend and have the results returned to my adobe form again ?
from
Kwok Wei

Hi Kwok Wei,
OnSubmit and OnCheck work in the same way. So if you need 2 buttons in your form then you can use both of these.
I have never tried passing parameters but you can define context attributes and assign values. Later these can be accessed from the onSubmit Method.

Hi,
Based on my research, we can block selected Users external OWA access by change the files
startpage.aspx and basicmessageview.aspx

How to store custom application data in the Portal

Hello,
Is there a mechanism in the Portal whereby you can put custom application data into persistence and then retrieve it again? I don't want to use the database to store the data. I was hoping there is some API to such a mechanism that will allow you to do this.
Of course, I also mean that I want to persist the data beyond the lifetime of a session - i.e. when the user logs off and comes back later, I want to retrieve the data again. Also, I do not want to use a KM repository, because I do not want to make the application KM-dependent.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks,
Martin

Martin,
do you want to store this data on a per-user basis? Then the personalization functionality might be want you want. You could define some additional properties in the portalapp.xml for your component and set its personalization to "no-dialog".
Alternatively, you could store this information as additional attributes of the IUser object. See the following code snippet for details:
IUserMaint mutableUser = UMFactory.getUserFactory().getMutableUser(userName);
mutableUser.setAttribute(NAMESPACE, ATTRIBUTE, "some user-specific data");
mutableUser.save();
(NAMESPACE, ATTRIBUTE being some custom defined String constants that uniquely identify the attribute.
Repost if you need further details.
