Hi Everyone,

Is there a way to enable SMS functionality by clicking on a phone number displayed in the dashboard output in Oracle Analytics Server?

If such a feature exists, could you please share the solution or any potential workarounds? If this functionality is not currently available, would it be possible to include it in future releases?

Thanks,

    Have you looked at data actions? you could create a Data Action that invoked some custom code.

    I think that would be possible

    Hi,

    OAS isn't going to send SMS by itself. You will need to use an external service for that (can it be a webservice or sending an email or whatever the provider/service you select for the job requires).

    As Jacques said above, data actions if you are in DV, or action links if you are in "classic" will do the job. If your SMS gateway works via emails, it will require some more work on your side (because OAS doesn't send emails from action links by itself), but using an agent and some JS you could implement it.

    But the key point is that OAS doesn't send SMS by itself, you must have a solution/service providing that feature and you then just call/trigger it from the OAS screen.
