    I am not sure but could you confirm whether you have access to your OTBIE environment I mean access to server? because as far as I know its on Oracle Managed Cloud with Oracle having server access and customer/client/user having only UI(analytics/biacm/odi studio/console) access.

    If you have access to your server then you can make use of runcat.sh|runcat.cmd along with archive option of the command, code it into a server script and schedule the same for daily backup

    Doesnt OTBI expose the normal WebServices with the archive/unarchive options?

    there is possible to evoke one by one

    logon -> getSessionEnvironment -> createFolder -> CopyItem....

    In my opinion, this way is very long.

    I cannot find web service with archiving whole folder

    I haven't access to the server. To make automated backup on promise OBIEE - it's very simple:

    to wrap copy and/or archive commands with .sh and than schedule it.

    Maiby is it possible with OTBI web services as WebCatalogService.copyItem (copy folder) for example ?

    Thanks
