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.

We want to increase the rest api limit for this payload to incease from current 25 limit to 100. we are calling this api through RF Smart and due to limitation for paging size, the packing units more than 25 does not show up. Can you please increase the limit atleast to 100.…
Dataset Refresh Schedule Remains Active After Switching Data Access to Live
We have observed a potential issue with dataset refresh schedules when changing the Data Access mode. When a dataset is configured with Automatic Caching, a reload schedule can be defined to refresh the data at specified intervals. However, if the Data Access setting is subsequently changed from Automatic Caching to Live,…
Bursting via Agents
Would like for the old classic BIP bursting feature to be fully Agent aware so that end users no longer need to be concerned with scheduling via the classic console or building out as many BIP reports just to support this one thing.
OAC Support for Microsoft Entra & Fabric
We have various data sources in Microsoft Fabric and need the ability to build reports in Oracle Analytics Cloud that connect to data sources in Microsoft Fabric. This is an unavoidable reality in today's complex data ecosystems. Microsoft Fabric requires authentication via Microsoft Entra. We opened an SR and Oracle told…
Enable Submission and Review of AI-Generated OAC Custom Visualizations
With the OAC Visualization AI Skill, users can potentially extend existing custom visualizations and address limitations encountered in real-world use cases. As an example, we used the AI Skill to enhance the OracleVectorMapsH3 visualization from approximately 10,000 data points to a version supporting up to 50,000 data…
