Moving reports in OBIEE without affecting the dashboards

Question

Hello Experts

Is there a way I can move my reports from one folder to another without affecting the reports links in the dashboard.

What I have seen if I have a report in dashboard which is under the path /shared/ABC ... If I move the report to another folder /shared/XYZ .. the report becomes inaccessible in the dashboard.

I have say 50 dashboards and I don't want to re-embed the report analysis again. Is there any quick workaround ?

A quick reminder: backup your catalog before to play with search / replace, mainly if you never did it before !!!

That's what Catalog Manager and its "XML Search & Replace" is for. References are always absolute paths you you must update them.
