OBIEE 12c third party authorization

Soheil Star

Hi guys

I am looking for some solution to figure this scenario out. I have third party HR system and external LDAP, I configured myrealm for authentication part and wanted to configure authorization steps with HR system. The HR system has REST to pass user information to any other system, I want to send username and receive some information like its organization position and its privileges, then base on them some dashboard will be visible for him (I think I could handle this part by session variable concept on OBIEE). I don't know how, in the user login to OBIEE phase, call HR webservice and set received value on session variable.

I need some road map and steps to handle this issue.

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys

Actually I reach to this architect to use shared table between our HR system and BI and use session_variable to handle it.

Any idea and notes about that ?

Yes: Where is the webservice you mentioned initially and where does the value get set? Or did you abandon that completely.

Also: "Report" - I am pretty sure you are not talking about reports there at all since a "Report" is a BI Publisher object whereas Analytics uses "Analyses".

Actually I bypass calling webservice by adding the intermediate table between HR system and BI, any change in HR service will update the table and we read them from that.

We set session value in Administration tool and use it in prompt section by using SQL Result

About "Reports" you are completely correct.
