unsupported report object's type - [catalog]

Currently we are using the following webservice to upload a report into BI Publisher
https://fa-exsj-test-saasfaprod1.fa.ocs.oraclecloud.com/xmlpserver/services/ExternalReportWSSService?WSDL
To upload the report into BI Pulisher we are leveraging the operation uploadReportObject of ExternalReportWSSService
When we are trying to deploy the *.catalog file to Bi Publihser using the operation uploadReportObject we are getting an error
"PublicReportServiceImpl::executeUploadReport Failure: due to unsupported report object's type - [catalog]. Only supported types - xdoz/xdmz/xssz .."
Please refer the attached error screenshot
- Is there any operation in ExternalReportWSSService that can help to deploy the OTBI report, which gets extracted from BI publisher as .catalog file?
- Apart form ExternalReportWSSService is there is standard webservice API that can help to deploy OTBI report?

Kindly assist in moving this thread to the OTBI category, as the customer requires assistance with that topic.1 -
I don't think it is possible to upload .catalog files using web services. There is an idea submitted for a similar requirement, please evaluate and upvote:
Upload BIP .catalog object via Web Services - Page 2 — Oracle Analytics
Thanks.

Hello @Sankhya or
I understand you are asking a question regarding BIP Webservices.
The .Catalog object that you are trying to upload is an OBIEE object, not an XMLPSERVER(BI Publisher) object, that is why you cannot use a BIP webservice to upload an OBIEE object type.
Instead of using archive to package your BIP objects, i would recommend that you use the /xmlpserver URL instead of /analytics URL, this will give you the option to download the same objects as .xdoz(Report), .xdmz(Data Model).
Doing this will allow you to use the BIP webservice to upload these objects.
