Attached is the java code which would pull the variables used in the Webi Reports.
This would list the below information:-
-Folder Name
-Report Name
-Variable Name
-Formula
If a particular folder or reports to be considered then need to do respective changes in the query ( Eg:- select SI_NAME, SI_ID from CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_Kind=‘Webi’ would retrieve all the Webi reports present in the repository. We can have some extra condition in the query if required. For example: SI_NAME,SI_ID).
The output file generated would be in Text file format.
Please use the below steps to get the final dump in an excel sheet:-
– Select the environment to run (do the respective changes in the code)
– A Text file would be created under C:\repdump{todays date} (if required, folder location can be changed in the code)
– Change the extension of the file(.txt) to .doc
– Open the .doc file and hit CTR+H, replace ^013(new line value) with empty. Reason: To make sure that there shouldnt be any new line values in the file
– Also replace ^t (tab value) with empty. Reason: To make sure that there shouldnt be any tab values in the file
– Replace *** with ^013(new line). *** is used as a delimiter to divide the entries of each row
– Change the extension of the file to .xls
– Go to data->Text to Columns->Delimited ->choose @ as delimiter
– Save the excel file
Note:-
-This code will not extract the formulae which are being used directly in the report display.
-Screen-shots to configure Eclipse to run BO java code had been posted in the following thread
