Business Objects reports/universe promotion automation

0 Kudos

We have been tasked with creating a process whereby migrate universes and reports through our environment structure in automated fashion using Jenkins/other orchestration tool.

The only real requirement that we have at this point is that the users should not use the CMC to access Promotion Management to perform the migrations.

In pursuit of this objective we are attempting to obtain information on this process. I have the following questions:

1. Has any one attempted to put together something like this?

2. What interface did you use with Business Objects? i.e. .NET SDK, java SDK, WebService, RESTful Webservice

3. What challenges did you run into?

Any ideas would be appreciated.

The basis for this work is to free up our Administrator's time from doing object promotions and focus on making out system run more efficiently by having a utility to allow users to promote their own content.

Thanks for your help so far, really appreciate it,

I am pretty new to Business objects and has been tasked for report/objects promotion using SDK.

could you please help which section I will look into the SDk documentation ? I do not see anything related to promotion, all are for semantic layers, BI development related.

Thanks and Regards,

Sukanta
