Hi all,

have somebody experiences with WFS themes and OBIEE?

I create a WFS theme in MapBuilder, then I can import it in OBIEE as a new layer, but I cannot find any setting to get the “Layer Key” in OBIEE “Edit Layer”-window.

Is it even possible to use WFS themes and OBIEE? I cannot find any documentation nor MOS Note nor Blog entry for this topic.

Best regards

Gerd

    Not helping you Gerd, but the title of the thread is priceless

    I was curious to find out what the "WTF theme" was

    After an half day of testing with this undocumented feature, I can only think of WTF

    With a little help from Oracle, we found the correct settings.

    We built the WFS Theme with the wizard and have used the following URL:

    http:// ... /WFSServer?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities

    After the wizard the URL must be truncated to the following length in the WFS-Theme properties:

    http:// ... /WFSServer?

    Furthermore, in our case the output format must be manual set to “GML2”.

    With these settings, the Layer-Key was displayed in Oracle BI.
