Masking (Hiding) Reports URL
Is there a way to mask (hide) the reports URL when called from Forms?
We are using Oracle Forms and Reports 12.2.1.4 with no SSO.
Best Answer

1. Recommended and secured way to hide the Reports URL is SSO.
2. You can partially hide URL Reports parameters by defining a key value in cgicmd.dat
Ref:https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/12213/formsandreports/use-reports/pbr_run014.htm#RSPUB23557
3. Calling Reports from Form certainly, you must be using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. In such cases JavaScript is handy to hide the URL.
Examples:
How to Use Java Script to Change Browser Characteristics When Using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT With Forms (Doc ID 265863.1)
How To Open A Customised Browser Window (no toolbar ..) using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT (Doc ID 942324.1)
Thanks - Suresh
