Selecting Folders Using On-Premise Visual Analyzer

Content

I'm not sure this is the place to ask this question but I didn't see a forum for on-premise version of Visual Analyzer.

My customer would like to open VA with a specific folder opened/selected by default.  For example, 'VA Projects' on the Home page, or a specific folder under 'Shared Folders.'

I'm familiar with using home.jsp?pageid=home and home.jsp?pageid=datasources to navigate from page to page.  I've also seen reference to project.jsp?pageid=visualAnalyzer to create a new project default; however, I've seen nothing that would allow me to navigate to a specific folder.

Can anybody shed some light as to where I might look for something like this?

Many thanks.

    Thought I would provide what I've come up with so far...

    If I use the following:

    http://<obi server>/analytics/saw.dll?catalog&action=browse&path=%2Fshared%2F<my custom folder>&name=*

    I can navigate via URL to any folder - check in the box - need this.

    If I use the following:

    http://<obi server>/analytics/saw.dll?catalog&action=search&path=%2Fshared%2F<my custom folder>&name=*&type=project

    I can search for JUST VA projects in any folder - again, check in the box - need this.

    I STILL need to do this while in Visual Analyzer but haven't cracked that nut yet.
