Isn't that the description of the presentation column? 5th column of the "Repository Documentation" CSV file.

Sorry but what are you looking for exactly? Because the question keep changing. If you know exactly what you look for, just ask that directly.

The RPD isn't in a database, so if by "query" you expected a SQL query the answer is simple: not doable. You can still get things by querying the BI server and running the following query: call NQSQueryMetadataObjects('objectId', '', '', '', 'false', '', ''); replace objectId with: 4004 for subject areas 4008 for…

You open your RPD with the Administration Tool, you go in Tools > Utilities... and select "Repository Documentation". In the CSV you get the first 3 columns are: Subject Area, Presentation Table, Presentation Column Just take those and remove duplicates and you have your list.

An added point for the proxy option: you can get rid of the port as well. No need to have it in the URL as you could use the default 443 with SSL. And the proxy could also forward / to /analytics by default if you forget it. So your nicer url would only be: https://company-obiee-dev

The proxy can be on the OBIEE server itself. For example OAC (at least the "Classic" one) came with a proxy setup on the OBIEE server itself doing the redirect and the SSL offloading: so you connect over SSL till the proxy, and the traffic between the proxy and OBIEE isn't SSL as it's on the same server and therefore it's…

What will be in charge of making the URL "user friendly" ? Are you going to install OBIEE on servers having nicer hostnames instead of more "random" ones? Are you going to have a proxy in front of OBIEE to translate the random one into a nicer one? The documentation covers how to setup SSL in OBIEE, the url is generally…

Hi, As far as I know they don't look for ideas about the product from this forum (never saw an OBIEE/OAC product manager here in the last 2-3 years). Your best chance is to raise an enhancement request (a type of SR). For OAC there is a place where they listen to ideas in the other CCC forum (I just don't remember the…

Check the agent logs, using Job Manager or looking in the database table with the logs. Based on what you find there you will know if the agent has been executed and the job is done on the OBIEE side and the issue is on the SMTP server. You maybe also want to make sure the agent knows where to send the content, if you…

Hi, You build a model with a fact table As you don't care about it, just take the same product table and define a count measure on the product id, because you need to have a fact logical table or your model will not be valid. In the subject area you will just add all the other tables and leave that one out. If you have a…

Good for you. Could you please mark and close the thread now? This will help others with same/similar requests to easily find useful information. At the moment it's still This question is Not Answered.

You are having a database issue, not an OBIEE issue: ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred Your database can't be reached from the OBIEE server with the parameters your provided. When you import tables in the RPD, this is done on the client on which you work. If your client knows where to find the database you defined it…

Following a blog post is ok, but doesn't mean you can't have a look at the official documentation. The first step ever is to look at system requirements, that's the same for any kind of app you try to install on your system. (Would you download MicrosoftExcelInstaller.exe on linux and ask on the Microsoft forum why you…

Ok, not even going to go any further. You decided to skip the first step of any Oracle install, find out what are the requirements !!!! Platform: Microsoft Windows 8 Professional Where did you see that OBIEE 12c is supposed to work on a Windows 8 Pro ? OBIEE is a server application, I never saw a single server run on…

Could you at least post some details of the environment and context? Exact version of OBIEE, OS version and details. Details about the environment and the history, where does it come from, what changed between last time it worked and now etc.

Would you mind to post a screenshot of your join(s) in the RPD? Because joins can be defined in various places and they mean different things, so by "join in the RPD" it's a bit too generic. And although OBIEE can change joins a little to improve queries, it would never really exchange 2 joins without a reason.

So, as Joel started pointing out, you ask the wrong question. You don't want to know how to start OBIPS, you want to know why it doesn't start. Do as Joel said: open the logs and find the reason there inside.

<domain home>/bitools/bin/start.sh -i obips1 start.cmd if on Windows

And how and where are you trying to display them?

You can display a message if your pie chart has negative figures. Of course a negative value there isn't supposed to exist ad this means you have data quality issues, but using conditions on sections you can display a custom message instead of the default one. The default one can probably be customized as it's supposed…
