API to get dashboards and roles in OAS 2024

Sreekar_B

Hi,

In OAS 7.6 (2024) version, do we have an API to get all dashboards and report details and the roles associated to them or any other way to export these details?

Thanks,

Sreekar

Please use the command below along with the required parameter to report on the catalog objects. Please refer the document https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/security-oas/use-runcat-manage-security-tasks-presentation-catalog.html for more information.

runcat.sh -cmd report

In OAS 7.6, if you use the catalog manager as mentioned above or the webservice available to retrieve those information, keep in mind that security is enforced. You will only be able to retrieve information about objects that the user you are using is allowed to see.

You could try to check in DV > Console > Content and look at the API called in the background by that page, it's meant to bypass the security and list any object (including objects in the private folder of users). But for objects you don't have permissions on, you just see they exists and can't really get their security.

These would be the supported, and mostly supported way. Then there are the unsupported ways…
