That we already do. The link is dynamically generated as part of the dashboard so yes, you have to know the location and logic of the filenames to be able to manipulate the URL and bypass the login to get files. Im still uneasy about this and that's why Im still looking for options Thanks

Hi, Thanks for your reply. No, that is not the end game just a particular requirement for one business scenario. Dashboard related to financial data and they would like to view actual documents tied to said data instead of having to retrieve them from a different system. Thanks

Its the same user

Hi Joel, We've tried that unfortunately the result is the same. Also, in case it is worth mentioning, the user which we used to install is a local administrator account. Thanks

Solved myself.. calling the configApps.bat from an admin comand line using -jreLoc flag to another jdk... D'oh

Still stuck, SR opened but still being worked. Appreciate any input or workaround I can try

Thank you. I kept looking in metalink after the post and basically confirmed what you say. Are you aware if its possible to upgrade odi to 12c after the install on 11g in a similar manner as its done with OBIEE? I wasnt able to find a metalink note on this. Thanks
