Hi,


I would like to find a way to query via SQL to locate all folders and objects within the OBI catalog where a specified role or group has any sort of permission.  Can someone point me in the right direction for that?

Thank you,

Glenda Reed

    Hi Glenda,

    Out of the box there is not a single piece of info (data or metadata) of the catalog stored in a DB, it's all in the filesystem (the .atr files).

    If you look at SampleApp there are example dashboards and scripts on how to extract that kind of info and load it into a DB (http://slc02okq.oracle.com:7780/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=%2Fshared%2F10.%20Lifecycle%20and%20Admin%2F_port…)

    You can maybe also try with Catalog Manager and create a report there (didn't try lately so can't remember if you can have a list of objects with permissions).

    Setting up the SampleApp script will take you just 10 minutes, and you can also just run it once by hand and analyze the output with Excel if you don't want to load it in a DB.
