Cache Issue while switching between EBS responsibilities to access OAS.

Question

Hi,

We have done EBS integration with OAS.

One user is having multiple responsibilities assigned to access OAS.

When user is accessing OAS with first responsibility from EBS responsibility page , it's working fine, and he is able to access correct dashboards.

But when he logged out from OAS and try to select other responsibility from EBS responsibility page, it is showing the same dashboards as earlier responsibility as it is maintaining the cache.

User have to do the complete log out from EBS to use the second responsibility.

Could you please provide any suggestion to resolve the caching issue so that user can switch between multiple responsibilities to access OAS without logging out from complete EBS.

Thanks,

Lalit

Hi @User_F707D ,

I am glad the issue is resolved.

However, keep in mind the ICX cookie has been deprecated and is planned for desupport in Oracle Analytics Server 2024 update. Please, check for details:

Using an enterprise SSO solution is recommended. My advice is that you start planning for that.

Lastly, to enhance your experience and foster meaningful interactions, we encourage you to personalize your profile by setting up a display name and uploading a profile picture. Your display name will be how others recognize and engage with you in discussions, while a profile picture adds a personal touch to your forum presence.

Take a moment to update your profile with a display name and an image representing you. Let's create a vibrant and engaging community together.

Regards,

Ezequiel.

The issue is now resolved. The enable connection pooling was checked in the RPD , which was causing issue.

Once disabled the issue is resolved.

Thanks to all for your quick responses.

Thanks,

Here is an old KM doc from 11g days- 1569615.1 Presentation Catalog Permission Behavior When Same EBS User Logs Into OBIEE Using Different Responsibilities Back And Forth , where suggestion was to disable ACL cache settings in instanceconfig.xml file, not sure if this is still relevant for OAS. Also for OAS I believe the recommendation is to move away from cookie based auth and use a SSO solution instead.
