Audit logs required for Oracle Analytics Server > Administration > Manage privileges
Because the privileges are stored in the catalog, if the fields of "modified_by_name" and "modified_by_type" would behave like everything else in the catalog, the job would be done already and could be tracked with database auditing.
But apparently for the privileges these attributes of the catalog objects stay null all the time (while "modified_time" is correct).
Can you please provide the schema and table name where we can find the details in Database
It's the main catalog table css_si_files in the biplatform schema. But as said, the privileges are missing that info on the modification.
We do not have event-based audit for these privileges but you can run periodic reports to list who has these privileges. Please review the OAS docs for using runcat to report classic privileges:
https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/security-oas/use-runcat-manage-security-tasks-presentation-catalog.html
Alternatively you can use the SOAP API getGlobalPrivileges: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/12213/biee/BIEIT/methods.htm#i1009858
Creating queries against the BIPlatform schema to reverse engineer a solution is not a supported approach so at your own risk.
I've marked this Idea as 'current capability' although I accept there is no event-based audit.
Right now, OAC offers pre-built pages and watchlists related to NSAW. At our University, we do not need these pages, and we want to delete them entirely. We've been told in response to our SR that all we can do is keep "Access" limited to only the default admin and sysAdmin roles. This prevents regular users from seeing…
It would be nice to have a way to right click on an object (subject Area, Column, Calculation, etc.) in the Data Panel and show where that object is referenced in a workbook = canvas, visualization, filter, calculation, data action, etc.) In Workbooks with multiple canvases and multiple subject areas, we are left to hover…
We want to automate the workbook export to .dva file and import this into another OAC instance using REST API, The goal is an OCI DevOps pipeline that can promote (a) a whole folder, (b) a single workbook, or (c) several workbooks in one run to another OAC instance, and print a status result at the end. Blocker: Export and…
When Oracle Analytics AI features find an anomaly, trend or key driver, let authors save those results as a dataset or subject area. Each run would add rows with the metric, the date found, the expected versus actual value, the severity, the main drivers and the filters applied. Authors could then build workbooks, schedule…
We use the snapshot to update AppRoles members. But we would like to disable catalog content to have smaller snapshots and create snapshots faster.
