Hello,



I am upgrading Cognos BI Server with 10.2.1 (This is different URL than old), in this process we are also upgrading Cognos Go Office with new version.

All users have created Go office Excels in their local, now we want to point them to new URL rather old URL.

Whenever I change URL for friendly name in go office excel, it is again creating new connection and pointing to old server.

I see only one way to modify i.e. System URL for individual report, this is going to be huge work as we have several reports.

Let me know if there is a to modify system url for all reports or am I going in wrong direction to update with new URL.



Regards,

Santosh

If you are talking about items stored in the content store you can write an SDK app to update Old URIs to New URIs.

Pretty sure there's a sample out there to do this, or something close to it but I can't seem to find it. That said here is another sample that you could "borrow" code from to do what your looking for....
