OAC Agent/IBOT report output of excel/csv to a file system Location

Organization Name
Thomson Reuters
Description
In OBIEE 11g to send report output to any file location, we use to create agent with “Invoke Server Script” on the Action tab which allows Java Script. Unfortunately in OAC we do not show this option.
Need ability to create agent/ibot which can send report export file (excel/csv) to file location (example: sharepoint).
Use Case and Business Need
Business has built many agents/ibots which send report export to file location on daily basis. This option is not available now in OAC which is impacting business users to send their report exports into file location.
More details
This option was available in OBIEE 11g but not in OAC.

Agreed. It would be great to be able to send the output from an agent to an OCI bucket, S3 bucket, etc.

It would be nice if this feature is enabled to Capture snapshots of Reports and store in S3 or Object Storage.

To minimize the usage of emails (agents) to share the reports, we are also looking at alternative options that will allow report output to be saved to a secure location (SharePoint, File Share, etc.) via an Agent within OAC.

This would be a very useful feature.
We used to have this capability when we were on-premise and we lost it.

An alternative OAC does support Web Service actions which can be used to create custom workflows.

@Alan Lee - Oracle-Oracle : Could you please elaborate on how to use Web Service actions to accomplish this requirement?
