OBIEE 12c Agent Delivers custom filename
Dear Experts,
Is this possible to customize file name dynamically in Oracle Agents (12.2.1.4). Currently I'm setting Agent delivers to box file location but business use case is to have dynamic file name (either prefix or suffix with one of the Agent parameters). Appreciate your help in advance
Thanks

Agents don't allow that. Only BI Publisher bursting has some options there.

Yes. I understand on the BIP side of it. On the Agent approach, I'm trying to find if I can deliver output file to Linux server location as an alternate solution so I further write shell script to change the file name in Linux and have the script to deliver the output to user. Is there a way for an Agent to deliver to Unix path?
Thanks

You need a custom piece of code. In MOS, in some blog posts and in the doc (I believe) there are pieces of examples.
OBIEE agents can't write to the filesystem, that's why you need a server script to do that (an EJB if I'm not wrong).

Okay Thanks. I'll try to search posts further. If you have any reference links, please share so it will help.
