Hi, you can create a report using web service in XI 3.1 rich client.(personl data provider --> web service)

Thanks, sivakumar

In the WEBI rich client we can just source from the Web service, but how can we pass the parameters into the webservice URL from the Universe Prompted Query.

Thanks.

This is my opinion but havent tried:
Using Qaaws. Build Qaaws query from universe and use the Webservice URL as the source in the Rich client.
Thanks…
