How to confirm users Starting Page in OAC

Hello All,

I have completed the migration of the entire OBIEE 12c catalog to Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) and have already validated user roles in the new OAC environment.

However, I’m facing an issue: in the OBIEE 12c environment, based on the user and their provisioned group, the user was automatically redirected to a specific dashboard instead of the default Home Page upon login.
This behavior is not occurring in OAC — users are being redirected to the default Home Page instead.

I’ve already reviewed and confirmed that the groups and roles are correctly aligned between both environments. I also checked the My Account settings for the users, and the Starting Page is set to "Default".

Could someone please advise where I can verify or configure this behavior in OAC?

Thank you

  • For OBI 12c, You can grep/search check your presentation server logs to determine what is configured.

    In, OAC, you can follow this document
    How To Configure PORTALPATH In Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) To Set The Default Dashboard Or Landing Page KB61335

    The screenshots are out of date, but the steps are valid.

    You do not want to have a conflicting Initialization Block Session Variable and a Console setting.

    If you are still having issues, then file a service request so someone can have a web share session with you.

    You can set PortalPath in the Oracle Analytics Console

    Other Options — Under System Settings

    Hi Steve,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    Really appreaciate your suggestion to check PortalPath setting in OAC, but in OBIEE 12c side? How can see the current setting for this field?

    Thank you

  • Hi,
    I may have misread your question about setting it in OAC

    In OBI, it can be set with a Session Variable (Initialization Block), and can be overridden by a user in the My Account Preferences.

    So you may want to check the repository (RPD) in OBI

    Hi Steve,

    You have got my question, and I'm seeing I can set PORTALPATH in OAC according to profile.

    However, I don't see the variable on rpd file from OBIEE 12c.

    Thank you
