Report variables

sdk development
#1

Can someone please tell me if it is possible to get report variables from a report from a document level where by one can get all the objects used in a report as well as all the user created variables and their values. If so how can I do so. Currently I am getting the information directly from a report in an XML format and I run into issues when the report is setup as a crosstab.

This can be done, but what is the version of BO that you are using?

Don’t have done something like that in Webi yet, but should be possible by using the Report Engine SDK:

I am using that SDK right now, but so far i have only been able to get the report variable names using “VariableExpression”, I can’t seem to get the values thou.
