iam having a universe created and i now want to create a Xcelsius dashboard out of it do i need to have a QAAWS connection in order to access the universe .
To create the Query as a Web service there is a gui application installed on the server where you can define it with a wizard. I think you can install this on a client machine as well.
I’m not sure how to do what you are asking but I think it can be done.
The difficulty with that approach is based on what you are describing you’ll be getting 16 dashdoards (4 universes X 4 dashboards) together each with a query coming over the webservices. I think your response time may suffer.
Surf over to the Xcelsius forum and see what you can find.
