Thank you,

Mubassir.

For some obvious reasons you don't really want to embed something delivered directly from OBIEE in your website. Just because your OBIEE will be hacked or taken down in 10 minutes.

I also doubt you want to run a query on OBIEE for every single user on your website, your analysis is probably a daily or hourly or whatever other time frame analysis which can be refreshed only from time to time.

For this kind of needs you have various options detailed in https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/12213/biee/BIEIT/index.html .

Webservices for example are a good way of doing things, or agents and a piece of script to store the result of the agent etc.

The key point is anyway to not have a direct link between users on your site and OBIEE, you better have a "thing" in between to isolate and protect your OBIEE.
