Hi,
I am trying to overwrite ‘user’ session variable with request variable. But it’s not working. Could you please suggest me can we overwrite system session variables? Or it’s not possible?
The USER is the USER. It's a reserved system session variable. You can't overwrite it. Why would you want to do this?
Thank you Chris for the response .As part of the requirement, I would like to pass different user with request variable to see what that user has access to.
That's called "Act As"

And not only it's called "Act As", but what you try to do will just not work. Don't try to hack the security implementation of your OBIEE/OAS. There are other ways to "see what the user has access to", well documented and officially supported like Act As, or simply by being in control of your security model.
You are supposed to know exactly what every user can access because that depends on the security model you did implement. You can get the ACL of every single object in your catalog and analyze what the user has access to etc.
Thank you for the response. In OAC, act as functionality is not available. Is there any work around you suggest for this requirement.
You're in the OBIEE forum and your posts do not mention OAC one single time. Next time write a properly detailed and explained question as outlined in the forum FAQ and you won't get answers going into a different direction
Sure, go in the OAC forum, in the idea space, https://community.oracle.com/customerconnect/categories/idealab-oracle-analytics-cloud-and-server , and open an idea asking for an equivalent of "act as".
The functionality is flagged as deprecated in OAS, in theory it also means Oracle is working on an alternative. But there has been no signs of any alternative for the last 2+ years ...

The user icon in the upper-right corner of OAC (DV) is displaying more menu options for our non-admin users than we wish to display. We would like to restrict these to only "Profile" and "Sign Out" for regular users. Is there a way to customize these menu items? Especially if we can control this via security, that would be…
What is wrong with this code
Am I missing something or is there no way to search through previous posts to make sure I don't duplicate a question? All I see on the filter options are tags or status… a general search for a word or phrase would be helpful.
We were under the impression that when exporting a visualization in DV to CSV format hidden columns would be include from the grammar panel. This is not happening. See below for a screenshot showing 3 hidden columns that do not appear when exporting the pivot table to CSV. This seems to have worked a month or so back but…
