Can we run a report by passing URL.

In our company our reports run through url, What we do , by clicking on certain report URL, Perticular report display, I am also have an example


http://stpbri01/ods-isapi/ods.ods?DMDataManagementReports1REPLACE&Docname=Patient_summary_ede_ctms_val.bqyPatient_summary_ede_ctms_val&limit1=ANSWER&limit2=RUSA&limit3=all&limit4=all&limit5=allMethod=login&Username=brio_user&Password=********&JScript=enable

In the above URL we can see, Systemname/locationsof the report folder/reportname/userid/password

Any chances in cognos reportnet or cognos8

Yes you can run reports by using url. Just look in the IE's source code from a Cognos Connection window and you will find all necessary parameters and urls. But be aware of your security when passing username & password

What'z the procedure to look at IE's Source code

you mean to say in cognos connection  Source code, just add the My report URL in the HTML tags.

go to cognos connection and on the page your report is on right click and select view source... There you will find the url to your report. append &p_parametername=<value> to pass parameter values..
