Hello Expert,

We have a requirement where we need to push an OTBI report to an SFTP server, and we would like to know how we can achieve this.

Welcome to the Oracle Analytics & AI Community!

OTBI agents cannot directly deliver reports to SFTP, as they are limited to email and dashboard delivery only as of now.

To send output to SFTP, you have to convert the OTBI analysis to a Bi Publisher report.

Hope this help.

Thank you.

In addition to the above, please check the following note from Oracle:

An Enhancement Request was raised to enable the FTP feature in OTBI. You may track it using defect id 20990512.

You may use this document for tracking instructions: How to Monitor / Track ER a Bug from My Oracle Support (Doc ID 1298390.1)

Hope this help.

Thank you.

@Pritam Das , Welcome to the Oracle Analytics Community!

One option is to use Data Set for the OTBI Analysis as Data Set while creating the Data Model.

Here are the high-level steps:

Go to Tools → Reports and Analytics.
Click Browse Catalog.
Navigate to create a new Data Model
Select Data Set → Analysis.
Provide: Analysis Path , Example: /Shared Folders/Custom/Integration/OTBI_Report_For_SFTP
Save the Data Model. This tells BI Publisher to pull data directly from OTBI.
Create the BI Publisher Report From the Data Model
Choose layout type:

9. Configure SFTP Delivery

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions in terms of how to configure SFTP Delivery.

Hope it helps!
