Print Page - Automatically pass parameters to reports through URL

Title: Automatically pass parameters to reports through URL
Post by: stancho on 10 Mar 2011 04:28:28 AM

Hi all,

I have some reports written in Report Studio. They expect input parameters.
How can I execute the report from external source and pass input parameters through the url.
Ex. I want to include the report in iframe and pass the parameters automatically...
(If it's possible I also want to include the report in portal page and then pass the params to the portal page which will pass the params to the report...)

How can this be done?

Thanks

I found some related solution in Administration and Security Guide.
But now the more interesting question is: Is it possible to pass login credentials?

HI there,

Yes you can pass credentials via a URL. see topic=6273.0 in this forum.
There are several technotes on this in IBM as well but I'm not going to add them as this seems to break the threads.

google keywords "IBM Cognos URL parameter CAMID"

Hope this helps
Cheers
