Adobe Flash to run reports/dashboards on browsers

Content

Hi All,

Over the past few days while working in OTBI, I kept getting asked to run flash everytime I opened a report or dashboard- eventhough flash is already enabled and allowed on all my browsers. I didn't seem to notice this until last year.

Upon further research- I got to know that browsers- Google Chrome, Edge etc will eventually phase out flash on their browsers.

How is Oracle planning to handle this? End users shouldn't have to click on allow flash content every time they run a report/dashboard on one of these browsers for now, and eventually when browsers remove flash support completely- how will reports and dashboards run?
