Authentication via query browser in Dashboard Design BO 4.0

system · May 2, 2012, 8:17am

Hi Experts,

I have a dashboard in Dashboard Design which has arround 10 queries, which have been created using the query browser in Dashboard Design. now the problem is when I generate .swf file it asks me for the userid/password, which I want to avaoid. like in previous version of xcelsius where we could embed the credentials in xls and could generate the swf. I am not able to implement the same thing via query browser feature. Please Help!!

Thanks and Regards
Kriti

I’m having the same issue - how do you store the user / pass when using query browser so the user doesn’t have to enter it?

I’m under the impression that you can’t store credentials in query builder, as you could with QaaWS. I’ve never found it…

Yep if inside infoview as a deployed dashboard then query builder picks up on SSO.

I have used an HTML wrapper around a standalone SWF before to authenticate the user. I wonder if it would work on a dashboard with query builder components to achieve SSO. I’ll try to test this and come back to you.
