Hi Experts,

We are using OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1 version and our organization planning to stop using adobe flash player due to security reasons.

As far as i checked and understood that Charts wont work properly without adobe flash player( dril down will not work if we use PNG in instanceconfig.xml).

Please let me know if any other impacts due to flash player ban.

Regards,

Saravanan

    Well ...

    You don't get any interaction anymore, so not just drill down but also master-detail, mouse over etc.

    You end up with just a bunch of pictures in your dashboard and that's it.

    (can't remember if all these things were already there in OBIEE 10).

    Really time to think about an upgrade, OBIEE 12c use HTML5 and so no Flash player required but full interactions supported.

    You mean other than "the application becomes basically useless"?

    Not many, no.

    Jokes aside: that's why everybody moves away from Flash and upgrades their stuff. It's a perfectly normal lifecycle. Otherwise everybody would still use punch cards.
