Hi All,
these are just toughts about using the Restful API to write macros to a WEBI Report.
I think that , as mentioned by anthony.muller in Calling Restful API from a WEBI Doc , the great challenge of self scripting a WEBI document ( by self scripting I mean auto modifying the document by inserting javascript code to make calls to the Restful API) is that open a document and making Restful calls to the API uses different memory spaces.
I think that we can accomplish that following the below steps :
1 - Get a logon token;
2 - Open the document through OpenDocument, passing the token as a parameter ( have a look at How to pass a parameter to a WEBI doc
3 - Save the document (have a look at How to autosave a Document over itself each n seconds );
4 - Make your Restful calls and save the document through a Restful call );
5 - Reload the Document ( through a refresh, have a look at How to set a WEBI document to autorefresh each n seconds ),
I would like to discuss these options with anyone interested on it.
Regards,
Rogerio
