Expand OAC DV Scheduling Capabilities with Selection of Parameters at Run time

Problem Statement

Users want to schedule reports with different parameter values.
Currently, scheduling requires Edit/Save privileges on workbooks.
Granting “Create/Edit Workbooks” privilege is not acceptable, as it allows users to create new workbooks on any dataset.

Gap Identified

Users can change parameters while running reports, but cannot change them while scheduling.
Workarounds (copying to Personal Folders, granting edit rights) introduce governance risks and are not aligned with customer requirements.

Reference Point

OAC Classic Agents supported parameter selection during scheduling, enabling flexible self‑service without requiring workbook edit rights.

Proposed Enhancement

Allow users to choose parameter values directly in the scheduling interface, independent of workbook edit/save privileges.
This ensures flexibility in scheduling while maintaining governance and restricting workbook creation.

Business Impact

Empowers users with true self‑service scheduling.
Reduces administrative overhead and avoids unnecessary privilege escalation.
Aligns with customer expectations for parity with OAC Classic functionality.

This indeed a good feature, which multiple clients are requesting in OAC and even in FDI. Prod Dev team can you please consider this idea. This will add a good value addition to the product both OAC and FDI.

This should be a critical enhancement - only allowing scheduling of the saved state of the workbook (if a consumer has no author privileges) is extremely limiting. Consumers should be able to schedule a workbook state for delivery, if not able to set parameter values at run time.

This should be considered a critical enhancement. Restricting scheduling to only the saved state of a workbook when a consumer does not have author privileges is extremely limiting.

Consumers should be able to schedule delivery of a workbook using a selected workbook state. Even if they are not permitted to modify parameter values at runtime, they should still be able to choose from existing saved workbook states when configuring scheduled deliveries.

This capability would significantly improve usability while maintaining appropriate permission boundaries between authors and consumers.

Ability to disable the header row in tables and pivot tables
I am creating two tables in a freeform report and overlaying these tables to appear as one to the end user. I can hide the header titles by setting the font and highlight colour to the same as the background colour but it would be better if there was a functionality to disable the header row completely.
Ability to list the members/users of a custom role from the OAC -> Console-> Roles and Permissions
My organization needs a practical way to generate a comprehensive report listing all members—including both direct and inherited assignments—of every custom application role within the Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) Console’s Roles and Permissions area. Today, the only built‑in method is exporting one role at a time through…
Ability to fix the width of table columns to a set value
Currently you are able to change the width of a field in a table or pivot table by dragging the border but there is no option to manually fix it to a set value e.g. 100px. Justification: I am creating a report with two tables in freeform and need the field widths to have the same size when I overlay one table on the other.…
