Difference in using Cognos Ipad Application and Safari Browser

[raj.kanag.s]

Hi Guys,
             I am very new to Cognos Mobile Technology!. I read some of your questions and answers to have some basic idea on this mobile platform in Cognos (Using Apple Ipads)

My Questions are below:

1.   Are there 2 ways of accessing Cognos reports from Mobile?  One via Cognos Mobile Application (from Istore) and the other via Safari (default browser in Apple products). Am i Correct?

2.  What should I do if I want to see a Cognos Report in my Ipad?  ( This is just for me to understand the basic installations and configurations needed to make the Cognos reports accessible via Mobile)

Waiting for your valuable reply!

Thanks,
KANAG

1. Yes there are 2 ways to access Cognos via Mobile on the iPad.
http://<cognos server>:80/ibmcognos/m
or through the App downloaded via the iTunes App Store.

2. Access the URL from your ipad, or install the app and point it to your cognos URL.

Thanks Grim.

Could you help me on the below question:

What are the basic installations and configurations needed to make the Cognos reports accessible via Mobile?
(Assume I have existing BI server used for the reporting via desktops)

Waiting for your reply!

Thanks,
