Solution:
We can achieve this using Symbolic URLs in Siebel. We have to follow below steps:
- Add host entry in Host Administration
- Configure Symbolic URL
Host entry in Host Administration
– Navigate to the Administration – Integration screen, then the Host Administration view.
- Add a new record with the following values:
[su_table]
| Name | Virtual Name |
|---|---|
| host:port | biphost |
[/su_table]
Configure Symbolic URL
Navigate to the Administration – Integration screen, then the Symbolic URL Administration view. Add a new record with the following values:
[su_table]
| Name | URL | Host Name | Fixup Name | SSO Disposition |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BIPSampleReport | http://biphost/xmlpserver/Sample Reports/Sample.xdo | host:port | Default | IFRAME |
[/su_table]
Where host:port is the Oracle BI Publisher host address you choose from the pick list. And mention your report URLs here.
