    Thanks Vikram for your inputs.

    Unfortunately SR isn't a available option (Self-learning purpose)

    Wondering if you have a worked out (step-by-step guide with screenshots embedded) which you would like to share ( please hide customer centric details in case you choose to share one).

    Thanks in Advance!

    Kind Regards

    Hi Ashish,

    After the code deployment the prompts were available automatically. There were no config or any type of changes done from our side.

    But there must be a setup done to link Dashboard Prompt with BI Parameter.

    Do you have then snapshot ?

    Kind Regards

    You don't need to create any dashboard prompt. If your BIP report has a prompt then it will appear automatically. It behaves similarly to OTBI inline prompt

    Hi All, 

    I have a similar requirement. 

    I have a custom BI Report which has a start and end date as input parameter in the report. 

    I tried adding the report directly on to a custom dashboard and then adding this custom dashboard to the seeded "Manager Resources Dashboard" but the prompts are not visible. 

    Next, I created dashboard prompts with start date and end date and used it on my dashboard. But I believe I am missing the step of linking the dashboard prompts to the prompts used in the BI Report. 

    I saw this article -  Dashboard Prompts Not Filtering BIP Report Created Using Oracle BI EE Data Source (Doc ID 2242277.1)

    But this doesn't help either.

    My prompts are date prompts. 

    I was able to find a Video on youtube where he used a custom "OTBI" report and the columns were filtered to be prompted. And the prompts were mapped to the dashboard prompts. How to do the same for a BI Report is the question. 

    Any advise would be helpful. 

    Thanks,

    Vinay
